00:30On the basis of what the media has reported, I can say that these proposed amendments that have been written in the media,
00:42tell us that the Modi government wants to take away the autonomy of Wahhabism.
00:51And it wants to interfere against the principles of Wahqif,
00:58and how the property of Waqf should be run.
01:03And this in itself is against the freedom of religion.
01:09Secondly, BJP has always been against the property of Waqf.
01:19And the agenda of their Hindutva, the agenda of RSS,
01:26is that they have always been trying to destroy the property of Waqf and the Waqf vote.
01:33Thirdly, the media reports that I am giving my reaction to,
01:41that once a property is declared as Waqf, it always remains Waqf.
01:51The Waqf Act of 1954 and the Waqf Act of 1996, which was amended in 2013,
01:59gives powers to the Survey Commissioner.
02:02And who appoints the Survey Commissioner? The State Government.
02:06The Survey Commissioner identifies the Waqf property.
02:09After that, a list of Waqfs is prepared by the Survey Commissioner.
02:14And that Survey Commissioner, who is appointed by the State Government,
02:18sends it to the State Government.
02:20And the State Government issues a Gazette Notification.
02:23So, the Gazette Notification itself is an official act.
02:27And if the Gazette Notification is not challenged for a year,
02:31then it becomes final and becomes the nature of Waqf.
02:36They want to change this.
02:40That is, the properties that have already become Waqf,
02:43now they will have to re-establish that they are Waqf.
02:47This is an impossibility.
02:49Secondly, you want to dilute the conclusive nature of the Gazette.
02:59Now, many people have encroachments in the Waqf properties.
03:03They are there illegally.
03:05So, they will get a chance to tell the Waqf properties
03:08that this is our property, not the property of the private Waqf.
03:11And if there are fights in any property,
03:14then the encroachers will get a chance.
03:18The third news report says,
03:20Amendment in the Establishment and Composition of the Waqf Board.
03:24So, this Act itself says that there should be a Waqf Board in every state.
03:29And the Board will be responsible for its administration and management of Waqf properties.
03:36Now, if you make an amendment in the Establishment and Composition of the Waqf Board,
03:41then there will be an administrative chaos.
03:43There will be a loss of autonomy of the Waqf Board.
03:47And if the control of the government over the Waqf Board increases,
03:54then it will have a great impact on the independence of the Waqf.
03:58The fourth thing is that there are Waqf Tribunals.
04:03Now, this media report says that the government wants to dilute these tribunals.
04:13Now, if they dilute the powers of these tribunals,
04:16then what will happen to these cases?
04:19There will be ineffective enforcement.
04:21The fifth thing that I am telling you about the media reports,
04:24it is written in this that if there is any disputed property,
04:29then these people will say that this property is disputed,
04:35we will survey it.
04:38If there is a disputed property, then its decision is made by the judiciary.
04:42Here, the Modi government will create a dispute,
04:46it will be surveyed by the executive or the CM or the BJP.
04:54Now, you know what the result will be.
04:57So, this is also a way to make those disputed properties a dispute first,
05:04then survey it and write a report in the survey that this is not Waqf.
05:09There are many such mosques and dargahs in India,
05:13where BJP and RSS claim that these are not dargahs and mosques.
05:18So, the power of the judiciary wants to take away that executive.
05:24One more thing that we are getting to know from the media reports,
05:28that if you take away the power of the Waqf Board,
05:38then it will be a loss of Waqf properties.
05:43There is another thing in the media report,
05:46Amendment to the process of Waqf Board.
05:49The Waqf Board, if I say that I am a Waqf Board member,
05:59then how can I be a Mutawalli?
06:02So, basically, all in all, if the media reports are correct,
06:10then the Modi government wants to take away the properties of the Waqf Board,
06:16and they are threatening the control of the Waqf properties over the Waqf Boards,
06:24so that all legal ambiguities are created in it,
06:28and this will be a loss of more Waqf properties.
06:31So, when they want to change the complete system,
06:34if the media reports are correct,
06:37then no one will go ahead and waqf the properties.
06:43And you will see that there are many mosques and dargahs of Muslims,
06:50where the organization of Hindutva, the RSS, says that it is not there.
06:54So, the purpose of these amendments is the same,
06:57that firstly, the Waqf properties should be taken away,
07:00secondly, they are working against the freedom of religion,
07:03and if there is a dispute, then the judiciary will decide,
07:06how the executive will do it.
07:08So, these are the things that we oppose.
07:11Sir, the proposed amendments also say that it aims to enhance the inclusivity of,
07:17by ensuring women's representation on the Central Waqf Council and the State Boards.
07:21How do you see this?
07:23See, this is, the real reason of doing it is not that.
07:29The real reason is the interference in freedom of religion,
07:34and the reasons which I have just mentioned to you.
07:37Sir, through this bill, you will solve all the problems in the State Boards.
07:42All these problems will be solved.
07:44What will be solved?
07:45You will solve all the problems in the State Boards.
07:47What will be solved?
07:48See, you read the media report,
07:50that the dispute in the property will be surveyed.
07:53Who are you?
07:54If there is a dispute, then the judiciary will decide.
07:56Who are you to do that?
07:59Who are you?
08:03They will conduct an inquiry in the name of Political Executive Dispute.
08:06That should be done by the judiciary.
08:08The reason is that the Waqf properties will be taken away from the Muslims.
08:13This is what the RSS has been trying to do from the beginning.
08:16The RSS has been saying this for 70 years.
08:20Before that, the BJP has been saying this.
08:23So, we will have to think directly about the allies of the BJP.
08:28Will they want to take away the Waqf properties of the Muslims?
08:32The political parties that are supporting the BJP.
08:35They should think about this.
08:37What will happen in Bihar?
08:39Will you take away the properties of Imarat-e-Sharia?
08:42There are Waqf properties in Andhra Pradesh.
08:44What will you do?
08:45Will you take them away?
08:46They should think about this.
08:47The people who are supporting the BJP.
08:53I have already said this.
08:54Don't repeat what I said.
08:55Ask me what I didn't say.
08:59No, no.
09:00See, I have said what I have to say.
09:03It is for...
09:04I cannot speak for other political formations or political parties.
09:14No, no.
09:15In the leadership of our MLAs, our party was saying from the beginning that
09:21Hyderabad, Saibarabad and Achakonda are very big areas.
09:26And there should be business activity here.
09:29And the government should give a fixed time.
09:32And should do it legally.
09:34We welcome the decision that the Chief Minister has taken on the representation of MIM.
09:38This will stop the harassment of all the non-essential establishments.
09:44And they should work properly.
