Bare Act
The Haryana Public Wakfs (Extension of Limitation) Act, 1974
Civil19744 sections
This law extends the time limit for filing lawsuits to recover possession of property dedicated as a public wakf, which are religious or charitable trusts for Muslims. It specifically helps people who were wrongfully dispossessed of such property between August 1947 and May 1954, or whose possession became adverse during that time. By extending the legal deadline to December 1975, the Act ensures that rightful owners can reclaim their assets and prevents the indefinite loss of these religious and charitable properties due to delays in legal action.
