The Supreme Court today put on hold three provisions of the Waqf Amendment Act 2025, but refused to stay the provision that abolishes the concept of ‘waqf-by-user’.

This episode of #CutTheClutter with Shekhar Gupta looks at the concept of Waqf, legislation governing waqf properties, the amendments brought in by the NDA govt in April 2025 & the arguments made in favour or and against the latest amendments. It also explains the amendments made to the law in 2013.
