Experience of the working of the Act over the last ten years has revealed certain difficulties.

(iii) A provision is being made to enable the establishment of separate Sunni and Shia Boards in any State in which the Shia Wakfs constitute in number more than fifteen per cent. of the total number of wakfs In that State or the.....
