Mumbai, April 3 -- With the Waqf Amendment Bill heading to Rajya Sabha after being cleared in the Lower House of Parliament amid strong objection from the opposition parties, Shiv Sena leader Shaina NC on Thursday accused them of spreading "false narratives", stating that transparency and accountability was a requirement in Waqf board.

"The Opposition only wants to spread false narratives. There was a need for transparency and accountability in Waqf (board)," Shaina NC told ANI.

She clarified that the government was not encroaching on anyone's rights. "We are not encroaching on someone's right, but we are ensuring that no one encroaches on Waqf and that there is due diligence," the Shiv Sena leader added.
