These actions directly affect the administration of the named wakf properties and may be relevant to trustees, occupants, beneficiaries, purchasers or professionals dealing with those properties.
Insolvency notices
The Court of the Subordinate Judge, Gobichettipalayam, gives notice of two pending insolvency petitions:
- I.P.3/2004 concerns a petition by Mahali seeking to be adjudged insolvent. The matter was posted to 18 September 2014.
- I.P.2/2008 concerns creditors seeking to have the first respondent, P.S. Gandhi, adjudged insolvent. The matter was posted to 12 September 2014.
Relevance to property checks
A person dealing with any named wakf should note that management authority may rest with the Tamil Nadu Wakf Board or its appointed officer rather than another person claiming to manage the property. The insolvency notices may also matter where a listed petitioner, debtor or creditor is connected with a proposed property transaction, but the Gazette does not state the outcome of either petition.
