Rakesh Kumar Garg, J. (Oral) CM No.24330-CII of 2010 For the reasons mentioned in the application, delay of 37 days in refiling of this petition is condoned. CM stands disposed of. CR No.6154 of 2010 (O&M) The petitioners have challenged the impugned order dated 19.3.2010 passed by the Wakf Tribunal whereby suit for permanent injunction filed by them has been dismissed and the counter claim filed by the respondent-Wakf Board has been decreed. Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in the case of Gobindram (dead) through LRs v. Sugra Humanyu Mirza Wakf, authoritatively laid down that the right, title or interest of a non Muslim in a wakf property cannot be decided by the Wakf Tribunal and in such cases only the civil Court has the jurisdiction. CR No.6154 of 2010 (O&M) -2- In view of the aforesaid judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the suit filed by the petitioners itself was not maintainable before the Tribunal. Thus, no interference is warranted in the present revision petition as the impugned order is without any jurisdiction. The petitioners are at liberty to avail an appropriate remedy before the competent Civil Court with regard to redressal of their grievances in accordance with law. Disposed of.
