New Delhi. The Waqf Amendment Bill has passed in the Lok Sabha and discussion is going on in the Rajya Sabha. The bill in the upper house is being sharp between the ruling party and the opposition members. Meanwhile, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has given a big statement about the Waqf Amendment Bill. He alleged that the BJP has brought the Waqf Amendment Bill to divide the country. At the same time, Mamta Banerjee also said, when the BJP -led NDA government will be out of power and a new government will be formed, then another amendment will be brought in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha to neutralize the Waqf Bill.

In the Lok Sabha yesterday, TSC MP Kalyan Banerjee opposed the Waqf Amendment Bill on behalf of his party. He had said that Waqf’s assets are backbones for Muslims. The rights of Muslims will be taken away from the Waqf Amendment Bill, this is unconstitutional. On the other hand, Mamta Banerjee also reacted on the order of the Supreme Court on the West Bengal Teacher Recruitment case. He said that the court is respected but I do not accept this decision. He said that the West Bengal government is with all the candidates whose jobs have gone. He said why everyone got punishment due to some people. At the same time, Mamta said that she will meet people who have lost their jobs at Netaji Indoor Stadium in Kolkata on 7 April.
Let us tell you that the Calcutta High Court had canceled the recruitment of more than 25,000 teachers and non-teaching staff in schools under the West Bengal government. After this, this decision was challenged in the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court today ruled and upheld the High Court’s decision. It is alleged that many posts were recruited through rigging.
