Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the dispute regarding the sharing of Nazrana at the Holy Shrine of Hazrat Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti, emphasizing the implementation of the final decree from Civil Suit No. 9 of 1929, as amended in 1940. The Court held that the High Court's decision to frame a scheme for the execution of the decree was warranted, given the long-standing disputes among the Khadims and the necessity for a structured arrangement. The Court recognized the roles of the Durgah Committee under the Dargah Khwaja Saheb Act, 1955, particularly Sections 4 and 11, in managing offerings made by pilgrims.
