             Dated this the 23rd day of February 2026

                              ORDER

P.V.BALAKRISHNAN,J

These review petitions are filed seeking review of the

judgment dated 11.09.2025, passed in CRP (WAKF) No. 48 of

2023.

2. R.P. No.1346/2025 is filed by respondent Nos. 10,12,13

and 15 and R.P.No.1391/2025 is filed by respondents Nos.1 to 4, 6

to 8, 17 and 18, in CRP(WAKF) No. 48 of 2023.

3. Heard Adv.K.Rajeev, the learned counsel appearing for the

petitioners in RP No.1346/2025, Adv.P.B.Subramanyan, the learned

counsel appearing for the petitioners in RP No.1391 of 2025,

Adv.K.Anand, the learned counsel appearing for respondents 1 to 3

and Adv. Jamsheed Hafiz, the learned standing counsel appearing

for the WAKF Board.

4. The only contention raised by the learned counsel for the

review petitioners is that the observations made by this Court

regarding fraud and limitation, while disposing of the CRP(WAKF)

may cause prejudice in the minds of the Tribunal while disposing of R.P.Nos.1346 & 1391 of 2025

: 9 :-

2026:KER:16568

WOS No.430 of 2019, on merits. But, we are afraid that there is no

merit in the apprehension raised by the learned counsel for the

review petitioners. A perusal of the judgment in CRP(WAKF)

No.48/2023 would go to show that this Court has not delved into

and entered a finding on merits in the matter, including the

question of limitation and fraud, and has only remitted back WOS

No.430 of 2019 to the Tribunal for deciding the matter afresh.

There is no error apparent on the face of the record warranting

invocation of the review jurisdiction in this case.
