LOK SABHA
Agenda
Reviewing the The Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2025
The Lok Sabha, as the lower house of the parliament, stands as the centre of policy making, political arguments, and ferocious contestation on national issues and crises for the Republic of India. It is where the Bharat of the future is constructed, debate after debate. This year, at DSMUN'25, the Lok Sabha is convening to discuss the Waqf Bill – a bill that seeks to reform the governance and transparency of the Waqf properties. The parliamentarians are invited to assume the role of political visionaries, discussing the agenda with authenticity, inquisitiveness, and effectiveness and deliberating upon the legalities of the bill, keeping their party policies in mind. Lastly, the Executive Board eagerly anticipates fierce debates given the seriousness of the matter and hopes that delegates approach the floor with clarity, conviction, and strategy and leaving the conference with a nuanced understanding of the issue as well as an enriching experience. Welcome to the Lok Sabha, where every word counts.
