casestatus.in Summary

Summary: Punjab Wakf Board v. Sham Singh Harike & Teja Singh (2019) The Supreme Court allowed the Punjab Wakf Board's appeal in the Sham Singh Harike case but dismissed its appeal against Teja Singh. The court clarified that when a defendant challenges whether disputed property is a Wakf property, the Wakf Tribunal has exclusive jurisdiction under Sections 6-7 of the Wakf Act 1995, not Civil Courts—rejecting the High Court's view that non-Muslims cannot be bound by Wakf Tribunal proceedings.
