AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi has filed a plea seeking an extension for the mandatory registration of waqf properties under the UMEED portal. The Supreme Court will hear the matter on October 28.
Union Minister Kiren Rijiju has launched the UMEED portal to enhance transparency and management of waqf properties in India. The platform ensures real-time data access and requires property registration within six months. It features a three-tier verification system, an online grievance redressal mechanism, and aims to benefit marginalized communities.
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.
