New Delhi: Union Minister Kiren Rijiju on Thursday tabled the Waqf Amendment Bill in Rajya Sabha and said it was introduced after talking to all stakeholders. Rijiju urged the Congress party and its allies to support Waqf Amendment Bill 2025. The amended Waqf Bill will ensure that the rights of women are protected, said Rijiju in Rajya Sabha.
Speaking in Rajya Sabha, Kiren Rijiju said as of today, there are 8.72 lakh Waqf properties. “In 2006, if the Sachar committee had estimated the earnings from 4.9 lakh Waqf properties at Rs 12,000 crore, then you can imagine the income these properties must be generating now.”
