Waqf Bill: Leaders of opposition coalition are trying to incite JDU and TDP but their dal is not visible. TDP and JDU have given their support for this bill.
Waqf Bill: The central government is preparing to put the Waqf Amendment Bill on the table in Parliament on 2 April tomorrow. The government has completed all preparations regarding this. In this connection, a whip has also been issued to all MPs to be present in the Lok Sabha. But the way will not be easy for the BJP, given the kind of political heat that is increasing about the Waqf bill.
There is a lot of political rage on the Waqf Bill
There is a lot of political tussle over the Waqf bill. The opposition is opposing this. By mobilizing the Congress, the opposition parties are trying to incite Nitish Kumar’s JDU and Chandrababu Naidu’s TDP on this issue. But the BJP seems to be very confident about the unity of the NDA on this bill.
BJP confident about NDA’s unity
Parliamentary Affairs and Minority Affairs Minister Kiran Rijiju has made a big claim about NDA allies that not only NDA but also the leaders of the opposition coalition are very keen in favor of this bill. NDA leaders are united about this. At the same time, many opposition MPs are also demanding to bring the Waqf Bill soon. It is worth noting that on 8 August 2024 last year, the central government introduced this bill in the Lok Sabha.
What does Lok Sabha number game say
NDA has a majority in the Lok Sabha. The total number of MPs in the House is 542, of which BJP has 240 MPs. The number of NDA with allies is 293. In such a situation, if everything goes well then the government can easily touch the magical figure of 272.
On the other hand, if we look at the opposition, then the Congress currently has 99 MPs. The total number of MPs of India alliance is 233. Apart from these, many other parties are not part of any alliance due to their ideology.
What is Rajya Sabha data
On the other hand, if we talk about the statistics of Rajya Sabha, then its total strength is 236. In which BJP has a total of 115 MPs including 98 MPs. Apart from this, 6 nominated 6 Rajya Sabha members have also been supporting the government on every issue. In this way, 121 numbers are available according to the requirement of 119 numbers to pass a bill in Rajya Sabha.
If you understand the mathematics of the opposition, there are 27 MPs in the Rajya Sabha of the Congress and a total of 58 MPs of India alliance. Thus this figure reaches 85. Apart from this, parties of the remaining MPs are not part of any coalition.
What did JDU and TDP say on the bill?
Leaders of opposition coalition are trying to provoke JDU and TDP but their pulses are not visible. TDP and JDU have given their support for this bill. However, some suggestions related to it by TDP have been included in this bill. Apart from this, JDU said that he is going to put his side on the table of Parliament tomorrow. According to reports, his suggestions have also been included in the bill.
