Kerala Government Reviews Reconstitution of State Waqf Board Amid Legal Considerations
The Kerala government is considering reconstituting the State Waqf Board due to concerns that some current members may not meet eligibility criteria. While an official notification to dissolve the board is anticipated, the government has not made a final decision and is reviewing ongoing legal cases, including those before the Kerala High Court and Supreme Court. The amended Waqf law requires inclusion of two non-Muslim members. The government aims to comply with legal requirements before proceeding.
