The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear a benefit that question the constitutional validity of the WAQF law (amendment) on 5 May. Hearing comes weeks after the Government of the Union remained several provisions in controversial law after the Supreme Court raised questions.
The Center filed its 1,332 pages at the Supreme Court, a preliminary statement in which it sought to release a petition, and pointed to a “malicious false narrative” surrounding a certain provision of the law.
On April 17, SC granted the center of the week to answer petitions that question the constitutional validity of the controversial law. The government then assured the top court that it would not identify the WAQF real estate, including the “WAQF by the user”, nor do any meetings on the Central Waqf Council and the Council of May 5.
The center opposed the interim command
The Center opposed the proposal of the Top Court on the approval of the Provisional Order against the designation of the WAQF real estate, including the “WAQF user”, except that the provisions allowing non -Muslims to the Central Council and the WAQF Council remain.
On Monday, the bench of the three Supreme Court judges will hear a benefit of five petitions and other related new actions on this matter, PTI’s press agency said. The doses of the requests include such chief Aimim and Hyderabad member of Parliament (MP) Assaduddin Owaisi.
Center filed a “false honorary statement”: Aimplb
On the eve of the hearing, the Council for the Personal Legal Law of All India (Aimplb) accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi-Maled Union of the Government to submit incorrect data at the Supreme Court in the ongoing case against the WAQF law.
Apex organ Muslim clergy in India sought a lawsuit against the officer in question for submitting what he calls “false affidavit”.
In his honorary statement on 25 April, the Center prevented an alleged act and opposed any “blanket residence” by the court for the “presumption of constitutionality approved by parliament”. The justification of the provisions on the characteristics of “WAQF would be a user” that any interference would create a “legislative regime under the court order”.
WAQF refers from the user to practice where the property is considered a religious or charity foundation (WAQF) based on its long -term, continuous use for such purposes, even if the owner does not exist a formal and written statement of WAQF.
The Council has objections to the center statement The fact that the number of WAQF real estate recorded to the central portal after 2013 “shocked by 116 %,” said PTI.
“Just before the time of Mugal, the era of independence and the independence era, the total total number of wakfs was 18,29,896 acres of land in India,” the Center said in the honorary statement, “shocking, after 2013, 20,92,536 acres.”
The Supreme Court recently refused to entertain any new action against the WAQF law (amendment), 2025, stated that it has already been clarified that the court will listen to only five out of more than 70 litigation.
The Center announced the WAQF Act (amendment), 2025 last month after the 5th April’s approval of President Murmu.
The Council for Personal Legal Law in India has accused the Union’s government of submitting incorrect data in the ongoing case against the WAQF law.
Several political parties, such as DMK, YSRCP, Aimim, left side, groups of civil society such as NGOs, Muslim bodies and others, shifted the top court, which challenged the constitutional validity of the law.
