Karnataka High Court has stopped an attempt to grab yet another property by the state's Waqf Board. The Karnataka High Court has ordered the Waqf Board to take the subject matter to the Waqf Tribunal.

The Waqf Board had filed the complaint against the postal officials as they had not vacated the property.
