Ambani's Antilia, the Kumbh Mela ground, and even the Taj Mahal — all of these have been claimed by the Waqf Board at some point. Hard to believe, right?

While countries like Turkey, Egypt, and Iraq no longer follow this system, India has laws that protect and regulate it. The Waqf (Amendment) Act 2025 was passed by the Indian Parliament in early April 2025. The Lok Sabha approved the bill on 2 April 2025, followed by the Rajya Sabha on 3 April 2025.
