that madrasas will no longer be recognised as schools because these
don't impart formal education. Reports Zeenews.
Madrasas only impart religious education, the government argued.
Madrasas are facilities where Muslim students are imparted education. Madrasas are different from regular schools as these don't follow a formal education curriculum and are not affiliated to any educational boards like the CBSE.
The state government's decision came after madrasas failed to comply with the government directive to teach subjects like science, maths and social science to children.
As per the Maharashtra government's decision, funds will be provided to madrasas only if they follow formal school curriculum.
