Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav criticized Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath`s use of bulldozers for demolishing properties, questioning the legality and intentions behind these actions. Yadav challenged the Chief Minister to provide official approval for the demolition of his residence and demanded transparency about its authorization. He accused the government of using bulldozers to target individuals out of revenge and to assert dominance. In response to the Supreme Court`s recent ruling against such demolitions, Yadav called for an official apology from the government for its past actions. Emphasizing that a bulldozer operates through steering rather than intellect, Yadav asserted that the people of Uttar Pradesh have the power to change the direction of leadership, implying that they can correct the current administration`s approach through democratic means.

Union Minority Minister Kiren Rijiju introduced the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2024, in the Lok Sabha to amend the Waqf Act, 1995. The bill seeks to enhance the authority of State Waqf Boards and the Central Waqf Council, improve the registration and survey of Waqf properties, and address encroachments. Akhilesh Yadav of the Samajwadi Party criticized the bill, suggesting it is a strategic move by the BJP to cater to its base. He questioned the need for non-community members` involvement in Waqf management, contrasting it with other religious bodies and claimed the bill reflects a narrow-minded approach. Yadav also defended the Speaker`s role, accusing the BJP of undermining democratic processes. In rebuttal, Amit Shah rejected Yadav’s critique, asserting that no single chairman has exclusive authority over opposition concerns and that such statements undermine the house’s collective authority.
