RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday claimed that the ruling NDA in Bihar was “on its way out”, and the new government in the state led by the opposition alliance will “consign to the dustbin” the Waqf Act brought by the Narendra Modi dispensation at the Centre.The leader was addressing a ‘Save Waqf, Save Constitution’ rally at the historical Gandhi Maidan in Bihar’s capital, Patna.Elections in Bihar will be held later this year.The BJP spokesperson said the ruling National Democratic Alliance will not allow any provisions of Ambedkar’s Constitution to be thrown into the dustbin.Slamming opposition parties, he said the sharia provisions they are advocating are not in force in even Islamic countries, including Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Turkiye.These parties want to concentrate huge portions of Waqf land into the hands of some self-appointed Muslim religious leaders, he said, adding that these properties were never used for the welfare of the community.Socialism believes in the distribution of wealth, but socialist parties like the RJD and the Samajwadi Party are doing the opposite and are, in fact, with a few self-appointed Muslim leaders, he said.”This is not samajwaad but namazwaad,” he alleged.
