The contentious bill, seeking to improve the management and administration of Waqf properties in India, will be taken up for discussion and passage in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday.

Roughly eight hours have been allotted for the debate, union minister Kiren Rijiju has said.

The Opposition has condemned the proposed law as unconstitutional.

While introducing the bill last year, the government proposed referring it to a joint committee of the two Houses. After its report came, the Cabinet approved certain changes based on the committee's recommendation.

The Congress has issued a whip to all its Lok Sabha MPs, ensuring their presence in the House for the next three days, reports said.
