'Good sign for our Parliamentary democracy': Union Minister Kiren Rijiju welcomes SC order on Waqf Act

15 Sep 2025 Evaluate

Union Minister Kiren Rijiju welcomed the Supreme Court's order on the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025, after the apex court refused to stay the entire law but put on hold certain provisions pending the final adjudication of petitions challenging the constitutional validity of the Act. However, a Bench comprising the Chief Justice of India B.R. Gavai and Justice A.G. Masih stayed the provision mandating five years of practising Islam for the creation of Waqf, until rules are framed. 

Reacting to the order, Kiren Rijiju said, ‘I am satisfied with the judgment of the Supreme Court. This will benefit the poor, homeless and backwards classes of Muslims. Since the Supreme Court is the top court, it will surely have an impact. In a way, the decision has upheld the one that was made in Parliament. We will go through the provision of the practising Muslim once again.’ Rijiju further said that the Supreme Court's decision reflects the trust in our institutions, as he called the Supreme Court's verdict a ‘good sign for our democracy.’

Union Minister criticised the Opposition and those protesting the Act, asserting that challenging the authority of Parliament was not justified. He also mentioned that the government will also look into the provisions which have been stayed in the SC's ruling. 

SC also stayed the provision that allowed a designated officer to decide whether a Waqf property encroached on government land, ruling that entrusting such powers to an executive officer would breach the principle of separation of powers. Additionally, the court directed that until adjudication by the tribunal takes place, no third-party rights can be created against any parties involved.

The Waqf (Amendment) Act, which was tabled in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha on April 2 and 3, respectively, was passed in both Houses and later received the President's assent on April 5, after which it became law.
