The Jammu and Kashmir Assembly has been adjourned sine die, with no resolution or agreement in sight regarding the contentious Waqf Act. The Assembly has not convened for further sessions since the adjournment, which was due to ongoing chaos over the issue.

Speaker Abdul Rahim Rather (NC) has refused a discussion on the Waqf Act, stating it is sub judice. The legal challenge to the Waqf Act, as announced by the National Conference, is still pending in the Supreme Court. The ruling party's decision not to entertain a debate on the matter has left opposition parties dissatisfied.

Opposition parties like the PDP and People's Conference have been demanding a discussion about the Waqf Act. They argue that the Act, which governs Muslim religious trusts, needs to be reviewed and debated to ensure its fairness and transparency.

However, the BJP maintains its opposition to any debate on the Waqf Act. The party's stance has further complicated the situation, as it holds a significant number of seats in the Assembly.

The petition to review the Waqf Act in Jammu and Kashmir was filed by the Jammu and Kashmir Waqf Board. The ruling National Conference (NC) announced plans to challenge the petition in the Supreme Court, a move that has added fuel to the fire.

The ongoing chaos and political tension in the Assembly over the Waqf Act persist. The National Conference's decision to challenge the petition in the Supreme Court has not been met with unanimous approval, and the opposition parties continue to demand a discussion about the matter.

As the situation remains uncertain, it is clear that the debate over the Waqf Act is far from over. The Assembly's adjournment sine die has only postponed a resolution, and the issue is likely to reemerge when the Assembly reconvenes.

Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
