Supreme Court Records Centre’s Assurance : No Waqf Property to Be Altered Until Further Orders

The Supreme Court recorded the Centre's statement that no waqf property, whether notified or registered under "waqf by user", will be denotified or altered until the next hearing.

The Centre further assured that no appointments shall be made to the Central or State Waqf Boards under amended Sections 9 and 14 of the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025.

The Solicitor General has been granted seven days to file a comprehensive response covering the legislative background of the Act.

The Court scheduled the next hearing in the week commencing May 5, 2025, maintaining the existing status quo.
