Lucknow: Welcome to KaumudyGlobal. With the Uttar Pradesh government set to conduct a survey of private madrassas, proprietors of the theological schools fear that their institutions may be declared illegal and "run over by bulldozers".
According to sources, the fear was expressed by them on September 6 in New Delhi at a meeting of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind, one of the leading organisations of Islamic scholars belonging to the Deobandi school of thought.
The Muslim body's president Maulana Arshad Madani told PTI, "Nobody has any objection if the government wants to conduct a survey of private madrassas but care should be taken so that it doesn't interfere in their internal matters."
The sources said it was decided at the meeting that views of the Muslim community will be placed before the government. A close eye will be kept on the exercise and a steering committee be formed to protest any wrongdoing.
It was also decided to hold a meeting on September 24 in Darul Ulum Deoband to chalk out the future course of action.
Earlier, AIMIM chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi and BSP supremo Mayawati had raised questions over the exercise, for which teams were to be formed by September 10.
