NEW DELHI: (Apr 6) The Centre does not want to control Waqf Boards but ensure that they operate within the bounds of law so that their assets are used in promotion of education, healthcare and employment to the Muslim community, BJP president JP Nadda said on Sunday.
Addressing an event organised at the BJP headquarters here to mark the party’s 46th foundation day, Nadda said the governments in Turkey and many other Muslim countries have taken the Waqf properties under their control.
“We are only asking those who are operating (the Waqf Boards) that you do it as per rules. You will have to do it as per rules,” he said. PTI
