CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: The TDP (Telugu Desam Party), an ally of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), has raised concerns over certain provisions in the Waqf Amendment Bill. The bill, aimed at reforming and improving the management of Waqf properties in India, has seen support and resistance from various political quarters. TDP’s primary concern is regarding the governance structure proposed in the bill, particularly the power it grants to the central government over Waqf boards.
The party has sought modifications to ensure greater state-level control and autonomy in the management of these properties. The TDP believes that the bill, in its current form, could lead to centralization of power and negatively impact the interests of communities that rely on these properties. They have specifically called for provisions that would ensure a more balanced approach between central and state powers. As part of the BJP-led government coalition, the TDP’s stance on this bill reflects its efforts to protect regional interests while supporting broader national legislative reforms. The outcome of these discussions will likely influence how the bill is eventually amended and passed.
