Indian court clears way for government to seize Pataudi family properties under 1968 Enemy Property Act.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has lifted a stay on the Pataudi family's properties, valued at ₹15,000 crore, potentially allowing the Indian government to seize them under the Enemy Property Act, 1968. The act targets properties owned by individuals who migrated to Pakistan after Partition. The court's decision affects properties like the Noor-Us-Sabah Palace, owned by Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan's family. The family has 30 days to appeal, or the government may take control.
