A delegation of Jamiat in Maharashtra recently met Mhatre Balya Mama (NCP Sharad Pawar) and Arvind Sawant (Shiv Sena UBT), who are members of the parliamentary panel, in Mumbai.A joint delegation of All India Muslim Personal Law Board and Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind is also going to meet Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin on August 20, the statement said.In other states including Bihar, members are meeting leaders of political parties and the Parliament committee members and telling them about the flaws of the proposed Bill and its “harmful sections”, the statement said.The Jamiat representatives are meeting the leaders of the Parliament committee to draw their attention to the “dangerous” provisions of this “unconstitutional and unjust Bill”, the statement said.The concerned MPs are being told that if this Bill is passed in its current form, all the properties of Waqf will become “unsafe”, the Jamiat said.”Even the claim of Muslims on old mosques, mausoleums, Imam Baras and graveyards, which are Waqf, will be weakened because there is a conspiracy to abolish the Waqf Tribunal and give all the rights to the District Collector,” the Jamiat said in its statement.Many members of the Parliament’s joint committee do not even know what Waqf is and what are its religious implications, it said.The members of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind are giving them complete details in this regard and are also informing the members about the amendments made in the Waqf rules from time to time since Independence, the statement said.
