A statutory tribunal cannot assume a function assigned to another authority, so the Tribunal lacked jurisdiction to frame the scheme. The Tribunal also failed to examine the limitation objection, analyse the evidence, and properly address whether the property could be treated as wakf by dedication or long user.
