The joint parliamentary committee examining the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2024 has rejected 44 amendments made by opposition MPs and accepted 14 from the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) camp.
This comes days after committee chairperson and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Jagdambika Pal was accused of running the Waqf committee.
Pal on Monday said, “There was a meeting to discuss clause-by-clause consideration. All the amendments introduced by the opposition each 44 of them were read by me with their names. I asked them if they were moving their amendments. Then they were moved.
