#SupremeCourt hears the Kerala Wakf Board's plea challenging the Kerala HC's recent order restraining it from taking major policy decisions over absence of 2 non-Muslim members

Bench: CJI Surya Kant, J Joymalya Bagchi and J Vipul M Pancholi

Sr Adv K Parmeswar (for respondents): State appeared and conceded...

J Bagchi: Whatever may be, we will call upon the state to report on compliance

Sr Adv Jaideep Gupta (for State): Order says it's posted for tomorrow. This is an interim order. There is no reason why your lordships should interfere at this stage

J Bagchi: Why should the Board for this reason stand handicapped by this restriction?

Parmeswar: Jt. Secy is part of the statutory Board!

Sr Adv Huzefa Ahmadi (for Waqf Board) - State is supporting the petitioner.
