Kerala attempts to intervene in WAQF case, mobile SC

“The state believes that the Muslim minorities in Kerala are discriminated against in the property of the WAQF and WAQF. Many provisions of the Amendment Act are very unfair and the constitutional validity is questionable.”
The judge, composed of Chief Justice Br Gavai and Chief Justice Augustine George Masih, plans to challenge the constitutional effectiveness of the WAQF (Amendment) Act (Amendment) of Tuesday.
On April 25, the Central Minority Affairs Department filed a 1,332-page affidavit to defend the WAQF Act revised in 2025 and opposed the court’s “a “law that provides for the assumption of constitutionality adopted by parliament”.
The Centre urged the Supreme Court to reject the validity of the WAQF (Amendment) Act of 2025 and pointed to “naughty false narratives” surrounding certain provisions.
The Centre notified the WAQF (Amendment) Act 2025 after it received the consent of President Droupadi Murmu on April 5.
