The Communist Party of India (Marxist) in Tamil Nadu has demanded the withdrawal of the controversial Waqf Amendment Act, calling it divisive and unjust. The party has criticized the act for allegedly infringing on the rights of the Muslim community in India. The CPM has urged the government to repeal the act, stating that it goes against the principles of secularism and equality enshrined in the Indian Constitution. The party has also called for a review of the Waqf Board’s functioning to ensure transparency and accountability in its operations. The demand comes amidst growing concerns about the impact of the act on religious minorities in India. The CPM’s call for the withdrawal of the Waqf Amendment Act is part of its broader campaign to protect the rights of marginalized communities in the country. The party has vowed to continue its struggle against what it sees as discriminatory and anti-secular policies. The CPM’s stance on the Waqf Amendment Act has drawn support from various quarters, including civil society groups and human rights organizations. The party’s demand for the repeal of the act is likely to intensify pressure on the government to revisit the controversial legislation. Critics argue that the act undermines the autonomy of Waqf properties and could potentially lead to their mismanagement. The CPM’s push for the withdrawal of the act reflects growing concerns about the erosion of minority rights in India and the need to uphold the country’s secular ethos.
