•Bill No. 108 of 2024
•STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
•The Mussalman Wakf Act, 1923, a colonial-era legislation, has become
•outdated and inadequate for effective management of waqf property in
•modern India. It is proposed to repeal the said Act to ensure uniformity,
•transparency, and accountability in administration and management of waqf
•properties through the Waqf Act, 1995. This repeal will eliminate
•inconsistencies and ambiguities resulting from the continued existence of this
•redundant Act.
