Kerala board challenges validity of Waqf law

New Delhi, April 24 (UNI) The Kerala State Waqf Board has filed a preliminary affidavit in the Supreme Court strongly opposing the Waqf Amendment Act, 2025, terming it unconstitutional, discriminatory, and a violation of fundamental rights and secular principles enshrined in the Indian Constitution.
The Board alleged that the Central Government is selectively targeting certain religious communities in its attempt to regulate religious properties, accusing it of adopting a “pick and choose policy.”
“All religions in the country do not have uniform laws governing religious properties. However, the Central Government is selectively targeting some religions and attempting to take control of their endowments,” the reply stated.
