The All-India Shia Personal Law Board on Monday condemned the UP government’s proposed population control draft bill, reports Yusra Husain. “The Bill is unnecessary. Instead, the state government should focus on elevating education levels and work on communal harmony. We urge the Centre to clarify its stand on the Bill and the UP government to reconsider the same,” Maulana Yasoob Abbas, general secretary of AISPLB, said. “In the garb of acting against religious conversion, some people are targeting Islam,” he said. The EC also passed a resolution to boycott UP Shia Central Waqf board member Waseem Rizvi for his continuous insult and attacks on Quran and Islam.
