‘The day we come to power, we will uproot it in an hour’, said Congress MP Imran Masood on Waqf law

New Delhi: A video of Congress MP Imran Masood from Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh was going viral. In this video, Imran Masood was seen saying about the Waqf Bill that if there are no mosques, where will the namaaz be read? If there are no graveyards, where will the dead bodies be buried? Forget about Idgah. If we come to power, we will solve this in an hour.

When the video went viral, a political controversy arose. Now Imran Masood has clarified on this statement and controversy. Talking to Aaj Tak, Imran Masood has said that he has not warned anyone. Our protest is against the Bharatiya Janata Party, not against any society. He has also said that listen to my full statement. We have said that if we come to power, we will reject this law.

Imran Masood said that we have also said in our statement that there is no place for violence and have also mentioned the incident of Murshidabad. He said that we are people who believe in democracy, law and constitution. The viral video is being told of Hyderabad, where he had come to attend the program of All India Muslim Milli Council.

Imran Masood had said in his address that this is democracy, not monarchy. The day we come to power, we will uproot it in an hour. We will cure it in an hour. We know how to cure in an hour. He had called for opposition to the Waqf law while staying within the ambit of the Constitution and said that wherever our governments are there, the governments of opposition parties are there, this law should not be implemented there under any circumstances.
