On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Congress for its "appeasement politics" and accused it of passing laws to benefit certain groups. Speaking at a celebration of the BJP-led alliance's victory in the Maharashtra assembly elections, Modi highlighted the Congress's actions related to the Waqf Board. He claimed that Congress ignored the Supreme Court's orders and handed over properties in Delhi and surrounding areas to the Waqf Board before leaving power in 2014. Modi stated that the Waqf law has no place in India's Constitution, which was framed by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, and accused Congress of using such decisions to secure votes and increase its support base.
