Within hours of Parliament passing the Waqf(Amendment) Bill 2025, a petition has been filed in the Supreme Court challenging the Bill, which makes several changes to the 1995 Act governing Waqfs.
The petition has been filed by Congress MP Mohammad Jawed, contending that the law violates Constitutional rights guaranteed under Articles 14 (right to equality), 25 (freedom to practice religion), 26 (freedom to manage religious affairs), 29 (minority rights) and 300A (right to property).
