AIMPLB postpones Bharat Bandh in opposition to waqf regulation

The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) on Wednesday (October 1, 2025) introduced their resolution to postpone the October 3, 2025 “Bharat Bandh”, a nation-wide protest in opposition to the Waqf Amendment Act, 2025.

The transfer comes after an emergency assembly of the Board’s office-bearers was convened by AIMPLB president Maulana Khalid Saifullah Rahmani.

The AIMPLB mentioned the bandh has been deferred as non secular festivals of different communities are set to happen in a number of States on the identical date. The Board clarified that whereas the bandh has been postponed, its protest motion in opposition to the Waqf Amendment Act wouldn’t stop.

Other deliberate programmes will probably be held as scheduled. The new dates for the “Bharat Bandh” will probably be introduced quickly, the AIMPLB added.

In the current previous, the Save Waqf, Save Constitution, a committee that features below the supervision of the Board, advised The Hindu, of their intention of embarking on what they described as a “second section” of a wave of protests in opposition to the brand new waqf laws. Mufti Omar Abedeen, co-convener of the committee, identified that whereas on the one hand, they welcomed sure features of the Supreme Court’s interim order, on the opposite, there was disappointment with others.
