Rijiju Dismisses Opposition’s Claims Regarding Waqf Bill JPC Report, Asserts Inclusion of All Dissent Notes

Published

on

On Thursday, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju rejected the Opposition’s accusations regarding the alleged blurring or omission of dissent notes in the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) report concerning the Waqf Amendment Bill 2024.
He emphasized that the complete report, along with all annexures, was submitted to Parliament in accordance with the established rules.
“The entire report has been made available, including the annexure. If any dissent notes undermine the committee’s integrity, the chairman is authorized to remove them as per the rules,” Rijiju stated.
He further suggested that any member who believes certain sections were unfairly excluded should address their concerns with the JPC chairman.
The minister also dismissed the Opposition’s characterization of the report as unconstitutional.
“To label the JPC report as illegal and unconstitutional is inappropriate. This is not a report of the NDA; it represents the Parliament. All dissenting opinions are incorporated in the report presented in the Rajya Sabha,” he asserted.
His comments followed the submission of the JPC report on the Waqf Amendment Bill 2024 in the Rajya Sabha. After its presentation, Opposition MPs staged a walkout, claiming that their dissent notes had been omitted from the report.
Rajya Sabha Leader of the Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge branded the report as “unconstitutional” and “fake,” calling on Leader of the House J P Nadda to withdraw it. “The Waqf panel removed the dissent notes from MPs and inserted opinions from external individuals. This is unconstitutional, and the House will not permit the tabling of such a report,” he stated.

National: One year after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, the nation remembers the 26 people who lost their lives. The attack took place on April 22 at Baisaran, a popular tourist spot.

At first, reports said only five people were injured. Later, it became clear that it was one of the worst terror attacks in the region in decades. Terrorists came out of the forest and opened fire on tourists.

Survivors said the attackers separated men from women and children. They then shot the men at close range. Many victims were reportedly targeted after being asked about their religion.
