Dawoodi Bohras seek ‘exclusion’ from Waqf Act; opposition MPs meet speaker to protest against panel chief
The Dawoodi Bohra community in Mumbai, represented by Anjuman-E-Shiate Ali, has requested complete exclusion from the Waqf Act, 1995. Presenting before a parliamentary panel, the community argued that the proposed amendment bill fails to acknowledge their unique identity and governance structure, which centers around the al-Dai al-Mutlaq. They suggested their properties be regulated under existing trust laws instead.
