THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.2287 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is a Dargah at Nampally. It has filed this Writ Petition, challenging the notification issued in Gazette No.30-A, dated 16.09.1984, on page No.11, at serial No.1687. The petitioner states that a notification, in relation to it, was issued at serial No.1688, together with the Masjid, Ashoor Khana, Graveyard and Abdar Khana, spread over an extent of 30,834 square yards, and without there being any basis, another notification was issued, in respect of another Wakf, Maqbera Allah Rakhee Begum Saheba, over an extent of 3,137 square yards. According to the petitioner, the said Wakf does not have any independent existence, and taking advantage of the same, several persons are claiming independent rights. Reference is also made to an order, dated 22.07.1997, passed by this Court, in W.P.No.822 of 1976. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the Wakf Board. The petitioner intends to challenge a notification, that was issued about a quarter century ago. Even assuming that there are any legal, or factual defects, in the impugned notification, the Writ Petition cannot be entertained, at this length of time. Further, the Wakf Act, 1995, provides for adjudication of disputes, between individuals, inter se, vis-à-vis wakf properties, or those between one wakf and another, by a specially constituted Tribunal. If it is otherwise permissible for the petitioner to file a suit, it can avail that remedy. Hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to avail the remedy before a Tribunal constituted under the Wakf Act, if it is otherwise permissible. There shall be no order as costs. _____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.05.02.2010. GJ
