In Telangana, the process of feeding state Waqf property details into the UMEED portal will begin after a workshop to train IT professionals for the purpose in Bengaluru, being conducted by the Centre. The training will provide details about the portal, its implementation, guidelines, and procedures for uploading property details. Six members from Telangana will be attending the programme in Bengaluru.

 

 

Telangana Waqf Board chairman Azmatullah Hussaini informed that after completion of the training, the board will launch a campaign by preparing material for mutawallis, caretakers, besides giving them orientation. He said discussions will also be held on the deletion of properties and objections to properties. The board will assist mutawallis in uploading the details, as they are mostly elderly persons and not familiar with technology. There are around 20 thousand mutawallis and around 85 thousand properties in the state, covering over 77 thousand acres of land.
