The Muslim Personal Law Board announced the war across the Waqf Amendment Bill. Most of the opposing parties like Congress, SP, Trinamool Congress, Muslim League, NCP, AIMIM, Left Front supported the board. The Muslim Personal Law Board said that the government wants to snatch the property of Muslims through this bill, wants to make Muslims a second -class citizen and will not allow this conspiracy to succeed. In the performance of the Muslim Personal Law Board at Jantar Mantar, everyone said in unison that the parties which are supporting the Waqf Bill are anti -Muslim, are with the BJP, so Muslims should boycott such parties. Asaduddin Owaisi said that he considers Chirag Paswan, Jitan Ram Manjhi, Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu as secular, but he is surprised that these leaders are also supporting Narendra Modi’s anti -Muslim agenda.
Salman Khurshid, Gaurav Gogoi and Imran Masood reached this dharna from the Congress. Salman Khurshid said that if there are shortcomings in the management of Waqf property, then the Waqf Board will remove these flaws itself. Gaurav Gogoi said that he was in JPC but the opposition was not heard, so the path of the movement is left. Meanwhile, Union Minority Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said that those who are accusing the government, in fact they have not read the bill, these people are misleading Muslims. It is clear from the words of opposition leaders and Maulanas that everyone has their own interests. No one means the Waqf Bill. No one does not matter what is in the Waqf Bill, what is its provision, no one has read this bill because it has not been revealed yet. Everyone knows that more than nine lakh property Waqf Board is with the Board across the country. The Waqf Board has the highest number of land after the Railway and Ministry of Defense. You will be surprised to know that the Waqf Board has a property of Rs 1.25 lakh crore across the country and the property of 1.25 lakh crores earned a year and a half crore rupees in a year, while there should be at least twelve and a half thousand crore rupees from such a property. Now Muslim brothers and sisters have to think that these twelve and a half thousand crore rupees are going in whose pocket? Who is harming? If there is income from the property of Waqf, then that money will be spent in the development works of Muslims. Now the question is, why has there been such a hue and then? The reality is that till now the Regulation of Waqf Properties is in the hands of the Waqf Board, the Waqf boards are occupied by the few people, their arbitrary. If the Waqf law is amended, then the shoplifting of these people will end. That is why so much noise is being made. As far as the leaders of political parties are concerned, they have the vote bank of opposing parties, so they stand with the Muslim Personal Law Board. But the government has a majority. Many Muslim organizations, Ulema and Maulana are in favor of Waqf Bill. Therefore, the government will bring this bill to Parliament and get it passed.
VHP, why are Bajrang Dal demanding the removal of Aurangzeb’s grave?
There were incidents of arson and stone pelting in Nagpur on Monday night. The fierce mob burnt 2 bulldozers and 40 cows. 50 people were arrested till late night. This violence took place after a baseless rumor decision on a religious place. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari appealed to everyone to maintain peace. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis asked people not to pay attention to baseless rumors. In Maharashtra, there is a strong politics about Aurangzeb’s tomb. Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad activists demonstrated across the state demanding the removal of Aurangzeb’s grave from Sambhaji Nagar. In many cities including Sambhaji Nagar, Nagpur, Nashik, Kolhapur, Pune, Mumbai, Vishwa Hindu Parishad-Bajrang Dal activists took to the streets and demanded the Fadnavis government to erase the signs of Aurangzeb from the land of Maharashtra. Aurangzeb’s tomb is in Khuldabad in Sambhaji Nagar. It is under the protection of the Archaeological Survey of India. The administration increased the security of Aurangzeb’s tomb. Barricading was done on all the routes leading to the mausoleum.
In fact, all this controversy began after Abu Azmi’s Aurangzeb as hero. Hindu organizations say that as long as Aurangzeb’s grave remains in Maharashtra, people who glorify it will continue to come. Chief Minister Fadnavis said that he also believes that there should not be a grave of Aurangzeb in Maharashtra but what he can do, 50 years ago the Congress government declared Aurangzeb’s grave preserved, now the government is responsible for the security of that grave. Fadnavis said that in the process of legal compulsions, the government will protect Aurangzeb’s grave but he promises that no one will be allowed to glorify Aurangzeb in Maharashtra, whoever does so will be in jail. Devendra Fadnavis spoke according to the dignity of the post, also understood government responsibility and took care of public sentiments. Seeing the grave of Aurangzeb, the blood of Indians is broken. The people of Maharashtra feel bad about knowing that the maintenance of Chhatrapati Shivaji’s Raj Rajeshwar temple is spent only six thousand rupees, while Aurangzeb’s grave is spent six and a half lakh rupees. Why so much respect for a cruel ruler? As far as politics is concerned, this controversy suits the BJP. But Uddhav Thackeray surprised Aurangzeb’s grave and surprised. Uddhav, who worshiped Chhatrapati Shivaji, shocked Aurangzeb’s tomb as a symbol of Maratha valor. It seems that Uddhav went wrong in the process of opposing Fadnavis, talked about the protection of Aurangzeb’s tomb.
A good step of Delhi Police
Delhi Police has taken a big step to prevent molestation of women. On the lines of the anti -Romeo squad of the Uttar Pradesh Police, there will now be a courtesy squad in Delhi. Every police district of Delhi will have 2 squads deployed in which there will be an inspector, one sub-inspector, one head constable and 8 constables. These 8 policemen will also have four women constables. The etiquette squad will do sudden checking in public transport. In public places, etiquette squad soldiers will be posted in plain veneer. If someone does wrong with sisters and daughters, he will catch it immediately. The great thing is that the soldiers involved in the etiquette squad were instructed that if someone would do wrong in public places, take action against them immediately, but do not do moral policing at all. Anti Romeo Squad is a good step in Delhi. Those who molest should teach a lesson. There should be fear of police in the hearts of hooligans. Sisters and daughters living in Delhi feel safe, it is the responsibility of the police. This must be fulfilled. (Rajat Sharma)
