A dhaba owner was shot dead in the Pataudi area here over an old rivalry, police said on Wednesday.

The Supreme Court’s intention to issue an interim order on the amended Waqf law was put on hold at the last minute today after the Centre and the states requested more time to marshal their arguments on three points the court raised.

The Supreme Court questioned the Centre on potentially allowing Muslims in Hindu religious trusts during a hearing on petitions challenging the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025. Concerns were raised about ‘waqf by user’ and the Act’s implications on long-standing Islamic practices. The court is considering whether to hear the matter or refer it to a high court, with petitioners arguing the Act’s provisions are unconstitutional.
