The Supreme Court is preparing to announce its interim decision regarding the Waqf Amendment Act 2025, following hearings on petitions that seek to halt the act’s implementation. The legislation has been labeled a ‘creeping acquisition’ of Muslim properties by those opposing it. The bench, under CJI BR Gavai and Justice AG Masih, concluded arguments on May 22nd, setting the stage for the upcoming order. The government’s stance is that the Act addresses property encroachment, whereas petitioners contest its constitutionality and extensive modifications to Waqf law.
