The Court reiterated that the Tamil Nadu Wakf Board has jurisdiction over the appointment of Muthavallis and that the trial Court's decree recognizing the property as a private Wakf was erroneous. The appeal by the Tamil Nadu Wakf Board was dismissed, affirming the High Court's restoration of the trial Court's judgment.
