Waqf Case: Centre Says Won't Denotify Properties For Now
The Centre on Thursday assured the Supreme Court that it will neither denotify waqf properties, including "waqf by user", nor make any appointments to the central waqf council and boards till May 5. The assurance of solicitor general Tushar Mehta came when he informed a bench of Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justices Sanjay Kumar and K V Viswanathan that the waqf law was passed by Parliament with "due deliberations" and it should not be stayed without hearing the government.
