Legislative Assembly Debates. Appendices. Official Report

1923

Maulvi Miyan Asjad-ul-lah (Bhagalpore Division : Muhammadan) : Honourable President and Honourable Members of the House devoted servants of Islam have frequently invited the attention of the Mussalmans of India to the maladministration misuse and the wretched condition of the Muslim endowments (aukaf) in India. [...] After these preliminary remarks in support of the Bill I would like to draw the attention of the Honourable Mover to certain defects in it which have raised suspicions in the minds of the educated Muhammadan of India. [...] 1 trust therefore that in view of the strong recommendations of several high officials the Honourable the Home Member and especially the Honourable the Lae Member will introduce the necessary amendments and will keep in view the practical difficulties and troubles with which District Officers and Provincial Governments will be confronted if the Bill was passed into law in its present form. [...] Women being of delicate constitution will often he unable to perform their professional duties and to appear before the Court much to the detriment of their client's interests as also of the work of the Court which will have to be occasionally interrupted merely in deference to the convenience of the fair pleaders. [...] (a) If the reply be in the affirmative do the Government propose to do anything in the matter ? The Honourable Sir Basil Blackett : (a) The Government of India have seen the correspondence in question appearing in the Pioneer of the 8th Vareh 1923 but are not in a position to endorse the calculations given therin which are based on several hypothetical data.
