Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the concurrent findings of the lower courts that the suit filed by the appellant under Section 6 of the Wakf Act, 1954 was barred by limitation as per the first proviso to Section 6. The Court emphasized that the suit, which sought declarations regarding the status of the property as Wakf Alal Aulad instead of Wakf Allah, was not maintainable due to the expiration of the one-year limitation period. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions.
