New -Delhi, April 16 (IANS). The petitions disputing the WAQF (Amendment Act) were heard in the Supreme Court on Wednesday. A Bank of Chief Justice Sanjeev Khanna listened to the arguments of the Muslim side and the pro -wetting. During the hearing, special discussions were held on various revised sections, such as Articles 3, 9, 14, 36 and 83. Proponents of the Muslim side argued that these amendments violated their constitutional provision of fundamental rights. Especially the rights of religious freedom found in Articles 25 and 26 of the Constitution have been violated. He said the amendment impeded his religious matters. At the same time, senior lawyers by the Central Government on behalf of the Attorney General and the Act assured the Supreme Court that the amendments made in the WAQF Act are completely constitutional and that there is nothing to violate fundamental rights. During the hearing, the Hon’ble Court said in its provisional observation that most amendments are in line with the Constitution. However, the court sought clarity on the definition of ‘user’. In addition, the court also demanded the central government explanation regarding the role of Hindu members in the establishment of Waqf Parishad. The court asked the attorney -general and advocates from the Hindu side to provide special assistance and explanation on both of these issues. Now the next trial of this case will be held at 14:00 on Thursday. Senior advocates started arguing earlier in this important case before the bank was led by Chief Justice Sanjeev Khanna. Senior lawyer Kapil Sibal began the debate on behalf of the requesters, after which Abhishek Manu Singhvi delivered his arguments. Advocate Singhvi said before the court that there are about eight Lakh Waqf properties across the country, of which more than four lakh properties are recorded as ‘Waqf by the user’. He expressed concern that these assets were threatened after the amendments made in the WAQF Act. During the hearing, Chief Justice Sanjeev Khanna said that, when he was in the Delhi High Court, he was told that he was a property in Waqf. He said, “Don’t misunderstand us, we’re not saying that all WAQF by User traits is wrong.” With this, the debate between the two parties continued on Wednesday and the Supreme Court gave the time of trial again at 14:00 on Thursday. -Ians DSC/ABM shares this story -tags
