Mumbai: The Batti Gul protest demonstration in Mumbai against the Waqf Act was very successful. National organizations and Muslims united and kept their lights off for 9:15 pm as a protest against the proposed Waqf Act. In the Batti Gul protest, the lights of Muslim neighborhoods, areas and streets were turned off. This protest was successful. All India Muslim Personal Law Board Coordinator Mahmood Daryabadi also declared the protest successful and said that the movement will continue until the Waqf Act is withdrawn.

In Mumbai’s Colaba area, MLA Abu Asim Azmi participated in a protest demonstration and Batti Gul against the Waqf Act, calling it anti-Muslim and demanding its withdrawal. He said that Muslims have protested Batti Gul on the appeal of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board, which was successful. He said that the protest will continue until the act is withdrawn. Abu Asim Azmi said that this act has been brought to grab the properties of the Waqf, which is unacceptable.

In the Muslim-majority areas of Mumbai, the lights went out as soon as 9 o’clock and the normal system came to a standstill for 15 minutes, which also affected the power supply because a sudden power outage for 15 minutes also affects the power supply. In Mumbai, Muslim-majority areas including Kurla, Andheri, Nagpara, Dongri, Paidhoni, darkness fell at 9 o’clock when the lights were switched off and the darkness became so much that the darkness of the night became even darker.

After the Batti Gul in Mumbai, darkness settled in the city. An awareness campaign was also launched in the Muslim-majority areas of Mumbai regarding the Batti Gul campaign, due to which this campaign became successful. Members of the Muslim Personal Law Board and national organizations in Mumbai have declared the Batti Gul protest a success.
