Nusli Wadia gets Bombay HC nod to be a petitioner in Jinnah House case

Mumbai | Friday | 10th August, 2018

Summary:

After she passed away on November 2, 2017 in New York at the age of 98, Nusli Wadia sought to replace her. The Bombay High Court has allowed Wadia Group chairman Nusli Neville Wadia to replace his late mother Dina Wadia as a petitioner in a case she had filed to claim the ownership of Muhammad Ali Jinnah's house at Malabar Hill. A division bench of Justices Ranjit More and Anuja Prabhudessai allowed an application filed by Nusli Wadia seeking to replace his mother as the petitioner following her death last year. The Union government had opposed Nusli Wadia's plea. In August 2007, Wadia had approached the HC claiming that being the sole legal heir of Jinnah, she should get the possession of the house..
