Opposition MPs Write To Lok Sabha Speaker Over Waqf Bill Committee | Read

Opposition MPs wrote to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla Monday, warning that they could 'dissociate' themselves from a joint parliamentary committee studying changes to the Waqf Bill.
The MPs accused the committee Chair, the Bharatiya Janata Party's Jagadambika Pal, of taking decisions regarding meeting dates and summons for consultations - unilaterally, and called his actions a "forceful way to mitigate (protests) and pass the Waqf (Amendment) Bill". They said they would walk away if not given sufficient time to present concerns about changes to the law.
