Proposed Waqf (Amendment) Bill Aims to Transfer Adjudication Powers to District Authorities

The proposed “Unified Waqf Management, Empowerment, Efficiency and Development Act, 1995” seeks to transfer decision-making authority over Waqf properties to district collectors, aiming to redefine governance and management across India. The bill faces opposition from various parties, but aims to prevent wrongful declarations of government land as Waqf property while promoting inclusive representation and improved administration.
