Several social media users have recently claimed the Chandrababu Naidu government in Andhra Pradesh has abolished Waqf Board. The claims have gone viral in the backdrop of the contentious Waqf Bill<\/a> introduced by the BJP government, which proposes more than 40 amendments to the Waqf Act.<\/p>\n

BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya (@amitmalviya<\/a>) posted the viral claim, re-tweeting a Times Now video<\/a> report on the ‘dissolution’ of the Waqf Board, which terms it a ‘stealth strike’ by Chandrababu Naidu. (Archive<\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n
