‘Waqf system must come out of touch me not syndrome’

Former minority affairs minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi emphasized the need for reforms in the Waqf system, advocating for greater accountability and transparency. The government planned to introduce a Bill to amend the 1995 law, mandating property registration and inclusion of women in Waqf boards. Opposition came from several Muslim organizations and leaders, including Asaduddin Owaisi.
