The key focus was Enhancing transparency and ensuring better governance of Waqf properties.
The Waqf (Amendment) Bill, passed by Parliament in April 2025 and renamed the Unified Waqf Management, Empowerment, Efficiency and Development (UMEED) Act, amended the Waqf Act, 1995 to require online registration of waqf properties, revise the composition of waqf boards and the Central Waqf Council, and strengthen auditing and dispute processes.
