I received this email from a friend of mine and wanted to share it with you !
Current Indian Government now have taken the decision
A key recommendation of the Sachar committee — and also on the PM’s 15-point programme for minorities — a special panel set up by the Ministry recently recommended that in states where madrasa certificates are recognized as equivalent to secondary and senior secondary level, these should also be granted equivalence by the CBSE.
The notification is expected soon and will benefit some 7000 madrasas and 3.5 lakh students in seven states that have madrasa boards: Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Orissa, Assam and West Bengal. This will also apply to madrasa certificated already issued. Those students can apply for government jobs.
What exactly is this government trying to achieve? just a pleasing policy under the name of secularism or real development JUST TIME TO THINK
And Is it really worth?
and Will it really help Muslims’ Children? How can the Madrasa students be given CBSE equivalent certificates without modernized content? I am not critical of or opposed to the Madrasas as such. But I think that schemes for educational development of Muslim students should not be linked with Madrasa education.
Before this proposal is introduced, a lot needs to be done at the Madrasa level to put it on a par with mainstream schools. An equivalent certificate could make madrasa students “eligible” to apply for jobs, but will not ensure they get the job in a competitive environment unless curriculum is modernized. Because most of the madrasas in India teach purely theological education and not modern subjects.
Time to have deep thinking -
With no base at all are these policies from current government getting people together or widening the differences and creating vote banks ?
