Muslim leaders in Andhra Pradesh have praised YSR Party leader and former state chief minister for opposing a controversial bill on Islamic endowments (waqf) in the Indian Parliament. His decision to vote against the bill was described by Muslim figures as a just and principled stance that upholds religious rights.

Prominent Islamic leaders from advocacy and service sectors expressed appreciation for the party’s support in protecting waqf properties, which they view as essential to the historical and religious identity of India’s Muslim community. They said the move reflects a broader respect for India’s religious and cultural pluralism, offering reassurance to minority communities that their rights are being defended.

Reaffirming his position, the YSR Party leader emphasized his commitment to supporting Muslims and all communities, highlighting his party’s dedication to promoting coexistence and honoring India’s diverse religious and cultural fabric.
