He further accused the Assembly Speaker of not giving them time to discuss the matter.

"Today everyone including us (Rashtriya Janata Dal) and the left parties raised the issue related to the Waqf board, but the speaker didn't give us time to talk on this issue and adjourned (the assembly session). This is a conspiracy by the central government. To spread hatred in the country. The bill is completely unconstitutional. We opposed it in Parliament and the Bihar legislative assembly and will also do so on the streets. We will not let this bill pass under any circumstances," RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav told reporters.

Asserting that they are against the politics of hatred, the senior RJD leader further said that the government only had one agenda, which was to spread hatred between "Hindus and Muslims."
