Over 12,000 Waqf Property Registrations Rejected in Uttar Pradesh Audit

An audit of nearly 100,000 Waqf property registrations on Uttar Pradesh's UMEED portal led to over 12,000 rejections due to data entry errors and insufficient documentation. The highest rejections were reported in Lucknow, Bijnor, and Saharanpur. Affected properties include graveyards, mosques, madrasas, and other Waqf institutions. The digitization process, mandated by the Waqf (Amendment) Act 2025, requires rejected registrations to be corrected and re-uploaded by June 5, 2026, ahead of the June 6 deadline.
