NEW DELHI: The joint parliamentary committee examining the Waqf Amendment Bill expressed dissatisfaction on Thursday over the responses given by Karnataka, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh about the status of Waqf properties in their states.
BJP member and JPC chairman Jagdambika Pal said the panel has given the representatives of the three states a fortnight to furnish their responses and would call them again to appear before it if required.
The committee has sought details about the Waqf properties in states, including their registration with the government, listing of the properties by their character - waqf by user or waqf by deed, the income generated by such properties and if their nature can be changed.
Pal said the committee will also tour Kolkata, Patna and Lucknow between January 18 and 20 to interact with various stakeholders there.
