Waqf Dargaah Kheraj Shah Baba and Another v. Vijay Pratap Singh and 8 Others
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court dismissed a writ petition filed by Waqf Board for declaration of ownership and status-quo in disputed land. The court held that since a private party dispute is already pending before the Waqf Tribunal with an interim order in operation, the writ against private respondents is not maintainable and amounts to abuse of process.
What did the court decide?
Writ petition dismissed with costs of Rs.10,000/-
