SC plays by 'no mention' rule, no urgent Waqf pleas listing

IndiaTimes Monday, 7 April 2025 ()
Several Muslim organizations, including DMK, Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind, AIMPLB, and Samastha Kerala Jamiathul Ulema, have challenged the constitutional validity of the Waqf (Amendment) Act in the Supreme Court. The petitions primarily object to the elimination of the 'waqf by user' provision and allege the "ouster of Muslims" from waqf management, claiming violations of fundamental rights and religious freedom.
