The Kerala High Court does not grant an immediate stay on the functioning of the State Waqf Board, according to reports from both outlets. The court also directs the State to file its response. While the applications seek to restrain the board’s functioning, the court’s order indicates that no interim relief is granted at this stage. The matter is therefore set to proceed with the State providing its position before further consideration by the court. The reporting notes that the court’s decision is limited to the present stage of the proceedings, leaving open the possibility of further orders after the response is submitted and the case is heard. The news coverage characterizes the development as a refusal to restrain the board’s operations “for now,” rather than a final determination on the underlying issues raised in the petitions.
