Wakf Act, 1954 | Gazette Notification Creates Presumptive Title Unchallengeable After One-Year Limitation; SC Restores Injunction for Mafi Inam Lands : SC
The Supreme Court ruled that a Gazette notification under the Wakf Act, 1954 creates a presumptive title to wakf property that becomes unchallengeable after the one-year limitation period. This restored a permanent injunction for the Telangana Wakf Board over Mafi Inam lands adjoining the Qutub Shahi Mosque, prevailing over later revenue records and pattadar passbooks.
