New Delhi, 22/5: Strongly defending the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta submitted before a bench of Chief Justice of India B R Gavai and Justice Augustine George Masih that waqf is nothing but just charity in Islam.
He said that charity is recognised in every religion, and it cannot be regarded as an essential tenet of any religion. The Centre notified the Waqf Act, 2025 after it got President Droupadi Murmu’s assent on April 5.
