Waqf Improvement Bill: The Waqf Improvement Bill was passed by a majority in the Lok Sabha late at night. 288 MPs voted in his favor, while 232 MPs protested. The bill will now be introduced in the Rajya Sabha, where it is likely to be intense again.
BJP showed political courage
The opposition hoped that the Modi government could retreat on the bill based on colleagues like Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu. But in 240 seats, the BJP made it clear that it was still capable of making decisions and making decisions.
When the BJP took power for the second time in 2019, it made history decisions like the triple talaq article 0 37 and CAA within six months. At that time the party had a majority of 303 seats. But even though the seats dropped in 2024 to 240, the Modi government passed the Waqf reform bill without any hesitation. This reflects the FIRM of Modi’s leadership.
Muslim votebank shock of the opposition
The bill has given a new challenge to the politics of the Muslim vote bank. Opposition is constantly trying to political equation in the name of the Muslim community. But this bill conveyed a message that changing the interests of the Muslim community is not the same as going to them.
The BJP showed that this intimidation of the opposition would no longer work. This can cause new confusion within the opposition. Because of this, the Modi government can gain political gain.
Faith increased in small minority communities
During the debate in the Lok Sabha, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju made it clear that small minority communities like the Parsi community were being provided with full security in India. With this bill passing, it will be strong that the government is committed to protecting the rights of all religious communities.
Impact on Election Politics
Passing the bill can prove to be a big weapon in the election strategy for the BJP. Elections are to be held in Bihar, West Bengal and other states in the coming months. With this move, the BJP showed that it was capable of implementing its decisions by adopting a strong and firm political stance.
