The opposition has unanimously decided to have a full discussion on the Waqf Amendment Bill tomorrow and will vote against it in parliament. \u00a0The decision came at a meeting this evening, which was attended by all Opposition parties.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“We have decided to actively participate in the discussion of the bill and strong opposition will be there in passing the bill tomorrow,” RSP’s NK Premachandran told NDTV in an exclusive interview, pointing out that the Opposition has been against the bill at every stage.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The controversial bill – which seeks to improve the management and administration of Waqf properties in India – will be taken up for discussion and passage in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday. Roughly eight hours have been allotted for the debate, union minister Kiren Rijiju has said.<\/p>\n
The Opposition has condemned the proposed law as unconstitutional.
\nWhile introducing the bill last year, the government had proposed referring it to a joint committee of the two Houses. After its report came, the Cabinet had approved certain changes based on the committee’s recommendation.<\/p>\n
The Congress has issued a whip to all its Lok Sabha MPs, ensuring their presence in the House for the next three days, reports said.
