Government to launch portal for registration of Waqf properties.

  • It is a centralized digital platform designed for the registration of Waqf properties nationwide.
  • It seeks to enhance management practices and improve transparency.
  • The portal is being introduced in light of the recently passed Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2025, which has received presidential approval.
  • Registrations will be managed by the respective State Waqf Boards.
  • Key Features - All Waqf properties are required to be registered on the portal within 6 months of its launch.
  • Each registration must provide comprehensive details, including measurements (length and width) and geotagged locations.
  • Properties registered in the names of women will not qualify as Waqf properties.
  • Nonetheless, women, children, and individuals from economically disadvantaged backgrounds will remain primary beneficiaries of Waqf assets.
  • Properties that are not registered within the designated timeframe due to technical issues or other significant factors may receive an extension of one to two months.
  • However, properties that are still unregistered after the allowed period will be deemed disputed and referred to the Waqf Tribunal for resolution.
