New Delhi – Today, 22nd April: The Supreme Court of India has agreed to hear on May 6 the petitions filed by the Kerala government against its Governor, alleging unjustified delay in granting assent to several bills passed by the Kerala Legislative Assembly.
The Madras High Court invalidated a Tamil Nadu amendment to the Wakf Act, ruling that the state government’s power infringed upon Wakf properties’ protection under the Constitution. The decision affects Wakf administration in Tamil Nadu and affirms the supremacy of central law over state amendments in religious trust property management, a win for autonomy advocates.
