  • Saudi Arabia to allow foreigners to purchase property

    Saudi Arabia to allow foreigners to purchase property

    [ad_1]

    Riyadh: The authority in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has revealed that foreigners will be allowed to purchase property anywhere in the Kingdom, local media reported.

    The Kingdom’s Real Estate General Authority chief Abdullah Alhammad said that it is in the final stages of establishing a new system for foreign ownership of real estate.

    The comment on foreign ownership of real estate in the Kingdom came during a television interview on the Gulf Rotana channel, the Arabic daily Okaz reported.

    This comes after Saudi Arabia issued a directive in 2021 allowing foreigners and legal residents of the country to purchase a single property with certain conditions.

    Foreigners will reportedly be able to purchase real estate of all kinds, including commercial, residential and agricultural properties.

    The system is also supposed to allow ownership in Makkah and Madinah.

    Although it was not clear when the rule would take effect, Al-Hamad was quoted as saying it would be “soon.”

    The Kingdom’s latest move could open up new investment destinations for expatriates and global investors looking for greener pastures away from traditional markets, including the UAE.

  • Multi-Generational Property Hoarders Dodge Property Tax: LG Sinha

    Multi-Generational Property Hoarders Dodge Property Tax: LG Sinha

    [ad_1]

    SRINAGAR: Lieutenant Governor J&K Manoj Sinha on Saturday said that those accumulated property for their five-generations are abusing J&K government for imposing property tax. He said common people are being misled by plunders besides spreading disinformation campaign on the law.

    “Those have accumulated property for their five-generations are abusing us on imposing property tax. They are running away from paying few hundred towards public exchequer but at the same time these people are receiving 8 lac rupees on account of rent on the properties they possess,” LG Sinha said while addressing an event in Srinagar here.

    LG said sometimes it becomes inevitable to take harsh decisions to set the things in order. “Some people thought J&K is their personal property, but I want to clear it that the present dispensations will heard only poor and common people of J&K and those spreading misinformation about property tax will not be taken into account,” LG said.

    He also said that the J&K government has made toll free numbers public to get suggestions from common people about property tax. “I assure you that suggestions of common and poor people will be taken into account and they will not be left disappointed,” he said.

    “Every State and UT of the country is paying property tax. Jammu and Kashmir is the last one where it is being imposed. Also if we compare it to others parts J&K is the only UT where charges have been fixed very low,” LG said.

    He added that religious places across J&K have been excluded in the tax and added, “The tax paid by Srinagar residents will be deposited into the account of Srinagar Municipal Corporation (SMC) who will spend it on the developmental works to make lives of common people better,” he added. (KNS)

  • ‘Discrimination in Shariat law’: SC to hear plea on equal property share to females

    ‘Discrimination in Shariat law’: SC to hear plea on equal property share to females

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday agreed to hear a plea filed by a Muslim woman who claimed the provision of Shariat law to the extent of not giving an equal share to a female compared to a male is “discriminatory” and violative of the rights guaranteed under the Constitution.

    A bench of justices Krishna Murari and Sanjay Karol was hearing the appeal against the Kerala High Court’s January 6 order filed by Bushara Ali, who claimed that it is her grievance that being a daughter, according to Shariat Law, she was only allotted half the shares as of her male counterparts.

    The bench issued notice to the petitioner’s 11 siblings which include four sisters.

    The plea, filed through advocate Bijo Mathew Joy, said Bushara is a decree holder in a partition suit whereby according to a preliminary decree dated January 19, 1995, she was allotted 7/152 shares of the scheduled property having 1.44 acres each.

    Joy said that a status quo has also been ordered by the apex court.

    The plea filed by Bushara said, “Petitioner is aggrieved by the final decree passed by the trial court wherein the petitioner was only allotted 4.82 cents of property marked as plot D of advocate commissioner’s plan.”

    Bushara said her father died intestate leaving behind his wife, seven sons and five daughters.

    She said in her plea, “It is the grievance of the petitioner that in spite of guarantee of the Constitution, Muslim women are subjected to discrimination. Even though the preliminary decree dated January 19, 1995 was not challenged and had become final, petitioner begs to submit that the partition of the property as per Shariat Law is discriminatory and same needs to be set aside. The Section 2 of the Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act, 1937, to the extent of not giving equal share to a female compared to a male is violative of Article 15 of the Constitution and therefore void as per Article 13 of Constitution.”

    The petition said that a similar issue is pending consideration before the court.

    Referring to the 2017 verdict in triple talaq case, she said the 1937 Act is a pre-constitutional legislation which would fall directly within Article 13(1) of Constitution.

    Article 13(1) states “all laws in force in the territory of India immediately before the commencement of this Constitution, in so far as they are inconsistent with the provisions of this Part, shall, to the extent of such inconsistency, be void”.

    Bushara said she raised the objections against the advocate commissioner’s report and plan dated 2022 before the trial court but it was dismissed and the advocate commissioner’s plan was accepted and based on that, the property having an extent of 4.82 cents was allotted to petitioner.

    “The High Court in First Appeal, without even looking into the records and without considering my aforesaid objections to the Commission report erroneously dismissed the appeal,” she said.

    Bushara sought interim order from the apex court restraining her siblings from alienating 80.44 cents of scheduled property as per advocate commissioner’s report dated July 25, 2022.
