**Supreme Court Refuses Extension on Waqf Property Upload Deadline**
The Supreme Court has rejected pleas seeking an extension of the six-month deadline for mandatory uploading of all waqf property details on the UMEED portal, which ends on December 5, 2025.¹ ² ³ Despite technical issues and insufficient time, the court maintained that the Waqf Tribunal can provide relief on a case-by-case basis.
**Technical Issues and Insufficient Time**
The UMEED portal, launched under the Waqf (Amendment) Act 2025, has been plagued by technical issues, including slow speeds and glitches, making it difficult for users to upload properties. With only 1.6 lakh properties uploaded across the country, the deadline of December 5 seems unrealistic.
**Consequences of Missing the Deadline**
Properties that are not uploaded by the deadline may come under government intervention, sparking concerns among waqf boards and Muslim organizations. The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has written to the Ministry of Minority Affairs seeking an extension of the deadline, citing technical glitches and insufficient time.
**The Need for a Solution**
The government must address the technical issues with the UMEED portal and consider providing an extension or alternative solutions to ensure that all waqf properties can be uploaded without undue burden or consequences.
