Srinagar, April 10: Apni Party President Altaf Bukhari announced that his party has filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court of India, challenging the recently enacted Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025.

Bukhari said the amended law “clearly infringes upon the rights of Muslim minorities” and emphasized that the petition aims to defend the constitutional protections afforded to minorities nationwide.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), he wrote, “Apni Party has filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court against the newly passed and controversial Waqf Act. We hope this matter will be heard soon, alongside other related cases.”

He asserted that the legal fight is essential to uphold the rights of minorities, stating, “The amended Waqf Act compromises the rights of Muslim minorities not just in J&K, but across India.”

Expressing hope for a favorable outcome, Bukhari added, “Our petition challenges the constitutional validity of the 2025 Waqf Amendment, and we’ve presented strong arguments to support our position. We pray justice will prevail.”
