How BJP use Waqf board to fuel its politics of hate despite Waqf board being a defacto government body?

 


Recently I have been seeing many posts and discussions against the WAQF Board and their Illegal, immoral occupation of Public and Private property. But the problem with these posts is that they purposefully hide the important facts about this WAQF board. 

 

WAQF board is a government body created through an act passed by the parliament of India. The government has the right to suspend the working of the WAQF board or even correcting its decision if they feel like it is going against its principle. The current Chairperson of the Central WAQF board is BJP=RSS Leader Smriti Zubin Irani who oversees all the actions performed by the WAQF. All the members of Central Waqf council too are BJP=RSS members. 

 

According to the WAQF ACT 1995 the Union Minister in charge of the Central Waqf Council can through the council of ministers make rules related to the working of Central Waqf board,tenure and salary of its members, and control over Waqf Funds(Section 12(1)). She also can advise the State WAQFs on how to work according to the rules laid and in the history of the waqf board state waqf boards had always followed any advice issued to them by the central council. 

 

The state waqf board members are mostly appointed by state governments. The state governments have the power to cancel the waqf board for 6 months in case of corruption allegations (not even proven), this cancellation can be further extended to 1 year, and new elections for waqf board can be declared. In 2015 AAP government of Delhi had “superseded” the waqf board claiming to found some irregularities in waqf working . 

 

State waqf boards have 7 to 20 members and with the majority, these members(mostly appointed by state governments) can replace the waqf chairman anytime. 

 

The tribunal that hears cases against waqf board consists of an additional Judge, a judge, and a scholar of Sharia all of whom are appointed by state governments. 

 

These facts prove that waqf boards are controlled by state and central governments and all of their “shenanigans” are approved by the government. 

 

So why these politicians and their political goons are shouting about the WAQF board 24*7 instead of correcting its decisions through the power vested? 


Paid Media hides this fact and BJP-RSS continue to use waqf issue to fuel its politics of hatred.
