Wakf-Alal-Aulad Demarcation | Judicial Finality Upheld Over Government Order; Madras HC Quashes Reopening After 25 Years

Madras HC reaffirms the finality of judicially settled Wakf-Alal-Aulad property demarcations, quashing a Government Order that sought to revisit a 25-year-old apportionment. The ruling mandates development of a Women’s Hostel on the public Wakf portion within two years, setting a precedent for the inviolability of long-standing judicial determinations under the Wakf Act 1995.
