However, the Chandrababu Naidu-led TDP is expected to ask for one key change in the Waqf Bill. The party will raise the issue of the bill allowing non-Muslims in the state Waqf boards, The Indian Express reported, citing sources.
"The party will unanimously demand that representation of non-Muslims in the board be left to the discretion of the respective states," a TDP source was quoted as saying.
Other than that, the Telugu Desam Party will back all other amendments to the bill, including the inclusion of women in the Waqf boards, describing it as a "progressive change".
