The Supreme Court will hear petitions on December 1 seeking more time for mandatory registration of all Waqf properties on the UMEED portal. The pleas challenge the strict deadline under the amended Waqf Act, 2025, fearing risk to ‘waqf by user’ properties.
The All India Muslim Personal Law Board plans to file a contempt plea in the Supreme Court against the government’s launch of the Waqf Umeed Portal, deeming it illegal as the Waqf Amendment Act, 2025 is under judicial review. They argue it disrespects court authority and disrupts religious property management.
