In a heart-wrenching account from Murshidabad’s Shamserganj, Kanchan Mondal-a widow and bidi worker from Bedabnagram—recounts how her family’s life was shattered overnight.

The Waqf Amendment Bill, 2025, is a crucial reform that brings transparency, accountability, and inclusivity to the management of Waqf assets in India. This reform aims to ensure that Waqf land and resources are used for the public good, preventing misuse and corruption while empowering marginalized communities, particularly Pasmanda Muslims. The Bill’s provisions include digitizing Waqf assets, providing public access, and including non-Muslim members in Waqf Boards to ensure broader representation. Despite protests and misinformation, the government’s goal is clear: to create a more efficient, transparent, and inclusive system that benefits all of India.
