According to a statement by a Gujarat government representative, the delegation's suggestions aligned with the interests of all citizens. This emphasis on inclusivity suggests a focus on ensuring the amendment addresses the needs of the wider community while upholding the principles of fairness and equity.

The Waqf Amendment Bill aims to address various aspects of the Waqf Act, including provisions related to administration, management, and utilization of Waqf properties. By seeking feedback from different stakeholders, including state governments, the JPC is striving to ensure the proposed amendments are comprehensive and address the concerns of all involved parties. The outcome of these consultations will play a crucial role in shaping the final form of the bill and its impact on the Waqf sector.
