Meanwhile, the Syro-Malabar Church has welcomed the recently passed Waqf Amendment Bill in the Lok Sabha, stating that it brings relief to the people of Munambam.
However, Church spokesperson Fr Antony Vadakkekara emphasized that their stance should not be interpreted as direct support for any political party.
Expressing solidarity with the people of Munambam, Fr Vadakkekara stated, “The existing Waqf law was against the principles of the Indian Constitution, and the government has fulfilled its responsibility by addressing this issue.”
He reiterated that the Church only opposes laws that contradict the Indian Constitution, not the practice of Waqf or the rights of the Muslim community.
