Plea against Munambam commission adjourned

The Kerala High Court on Thursday adjourned to February 13 hearing on a writ petition filed by the Kerala Waqf Land Samrakshana Vedi challenging the appointment of C.N. Ramachandran Nair Commission on the Munambam land issue.

The petitioner contended that the State government had no power or authority to appoint a Commission to inquire into a fact which had already been found existing by a civil court which was later confirmed the High Court. The constitution of the commission is violative of the provisions of Waqf Act 1995, a Central Act.
