Chief Minister Mohan Yadav stated that the Waqf Bill will guarantee effective management and safeguarding of Waqf properties nationwide, empowering the Muslim community and laying the groundwork for beneficial societal changes.
"With Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, women across the nation are progressively gaining empowerment. This significant step is a clear demonstration of 'sabka satha, sabka vikas, and sabka vishwas'," Chief Minister Yadav remarked during a media interaction.

State Cooperation Minister Vishwas Sarang expressed his appreciation to PM Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for this milestone achievement represented by the Waqf Bill.
"The manner in which Home Minister Shah and other BJP Ministers articulated the details of the Waqf Bill was impressive and commendable. Some Muslim leaders, who have unlawfully seized Waqf properties for personal gain, are now anxious. The impoverished Muslim community has welcomed this Bill," Sarang stated while speaking to IANS on Friday.
The contentious Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2025 was passed by Parliament after receiving approval from the Rajya Sabha early Friday morning, following a lengthy debate in the Lok Sabha that lasted over 12 hours on Thursday.
Having passed in both houses of Parliament, the proposed legislation will be forwarded for the President's approval before it becomes law, amending the existing 1995 statute governing Waqf properties.
