The portal and database will automatically generate a unique identification number for each Waqf property coming on record. It will be used for tracking and monitoring all future references and properties.
According to the notified rules, the mutawalli will enroll them on the portal and database using their mobile number and e-mail. If a complaint is received about a property being wrongly declared as a waqf, the designated government official will have to complete the investigation within one year of receiving the reference from the District Collector.
