The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today hailed the passage of the Waqf (Amendment) Bill and the Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill by both Houses of Parliament marks a watershed moment in our collective quest for socio-economic justice, transparency and inclusive growth.

He wrote in a thread post on X:

“The passage of the Waqf (Amendment) Bill and the Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill by both Houses of Parliament marks a watershed moment in our collective quest for socio-economic justice, transparency and inclusive growth. This will particularly help those who have long remained on the margins, thus being denied both voice and opportunity.”

“Gratitude to all Members of Parliament who participated in the Parliamentary and Committee discussions, voiced their perspectives and contributed to the strengthening of these legislations. A special thanks also to the countless people who sent their valuable inputs to the Parliamentary committee. Yet again, the importance of extensive debate and dialogue has been reaffirmed.”

“For decades, the Waqf system was synonymous with lack of transparency and accountability. This especially harmed the interests of Muslim women, poor Muslims, Pasmanda Muslims. The legislations passed by Parliament will boost transparency and also safeguard people’s rights.”

“We will now enter an era where the framework will be more modern and sensitive to social justice. On a larger note, we remain committed to prioritising the dignity of every citizen. This is also how we build a stronger, more inclusive and more compassionate India.”

“संसद के दोनों सदनों से वक्फ (संशोधन) विधेयक और मुसलमान वक्फ (निरसन) विधेयक का पारित होना देश के लिए एक ऐतिहासिक क्षण है। यह सामाजिक-आर्थिक न्याय, पारदर्शिता और समावेशी विकास की हमारी सामूहिक प्रतिबद्धता को सामने लाता है। यह विशेष रूप से उन लोगों के लिए फायदेमंद होगा, जो लंबे समय से हाशिये पर रहे हैं, जिनकी आवाज अनसुनी रही और जिन्हें अवसरों से वंचित रहना पड़ा है।”

“उन सभी सांसदों का हृदय से आभार, जिन्होंने संसद और कमेटी की चर्चाओं में हिस्सा लिया और अपने विचार रखे। इन चर्चाओं ने विधेयक को और सशक्त बनाने का काम किया है। इस अवसर पर संसदीय समिति को अपना बहुमूल्य सुझाव भेजने वाले अनगिनत लोगों का भी मैं विशेष रूप से आभार व्यक्त करना चाहता हूं। इससे एक बार फिर यह पता चलता है कि व्यापक बहस और संवाद कितना महत्वपूर्ण होता है।”

“दशकों से वक्फ व्यवस्था में पारदर्शिता और जवाबदेही की कमी नजर आ रही थी। इससे मुख्य रूप से हमारी मुस्लिम माताओं-बहनों, गरीब और पसमांदा मुसलमान भाई-बहनों के हितों को बहुत नुकसान हो रहा था। अब संसद द्वारा पारित विधेयक पारदर्शिता को बढ़ाने के साथ-साथ लोगों के अधिकारों की रक्षा में भी मददगार बनेगा।”

“इसके साथ ही हम एक ऐसे युग में प्रवेश करेंगे, जो आज के समय के अनुरूप होने के साथ ही सामाजिक न्याय को लेकर प्रतिबद्ध होगा। देश के हर नागरिक की गरिमा को प्राथमिकता मिले, इसके लिए हम संकल्पबद्ध हैं। यह मार्ग ज्यादा सशक्त, समावेशी और संवेदनशील भारत के निर्माण में काफी महत्वपूर्ण होने वाला है।”
