'Turning point': PM Narendra Modi as Parliament approves Waqf Amendment Bill
PM Modi praised the approval of the Waqf (Amendment) Bill and the Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill as a significant development for social and economic fairness.
Shortly after the Rajya Sabha voted on the debated Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2025 and Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill, Prime Minister Narendra Modi referred to it as a “turning point,” stating that these laws will assist underserved communities that have lacked representation and access.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi also thanked the Parliament members and those who provided suggestions to the Joint Parliamentary Committee tasked with recommending changes to the bill.
In an extensive message on X (previously Twitter), Modi stated, “The approval of the Waqf (Amendment) Bill and the Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill by both Houses of Parliament signifies a turning point in our common effort towards social and economic fairness, accountability, and inclusive development. This will especially benefit individuals who have been marginalized for too long, thus lacking both representation and opportunity.”
“I am grateful to all Parliament members who took part in the discussions and committee meetings, shared their views, and helped enhance these laws. A special acknowledgment goes to the many individuals who offered their valuable thoughts to the Parliamentary committee. Once more, the significance of thorough discussion and dialogue has been confirmed,” he continued.
