Educational awareness among Muslims - a
positive step
Madhya
Pradesh Madrasa Board is among the few dynamic and active institution in
such category among all the states of India. As of now, Madhya Pradesh
government is patronizing 3,500 madrasas, out of a total of 6000,
registered with it and has made arrangements for modern education for
1,75,000 students (both boys and girls) receiving education in these
madrasas. A two-day workshop was recently held to prepare a syllabus and
guidebooks and model questions for Madrasa Board examinations, attended by
eminent educationists of India. The presence of responsible authorities of
the state’s Department of Education in this workshop, along with the
educationists, was a proof that the state government as well as the
responsible authorities of Madrasa Board are busy in earnestly
implementing the objectives for which the Board was set up. Seeing the
performance of the Board so far, it can be said safely that if this trend
continues with the same zeal, Muslims of Madhya Pradesh will get bright
opportunities in their educational and economic life.
Addressing the concluding session of the 2-day workshop of Madhya Pradesh
Madrasa Board, Chairman of Urdu Academy and a former minister of Madhya
Pradesh, Aziz Qureshi, said that equipping the students of madrasas with
modern education is an important need of Muslims because the power of
students reading in madrasas is already known to India during the
independence struggle. Therefore it is essential that future generations
of Muslims should be equipped with modern education for building and
development of India and to enable them to achieve a place of honour,
respect and prosperity in society. Madrasa Board has taken upon itself the
important responsibility of Madhya Pradesh government in this direction.
The government has sanctioned a grant of Rs 10 lakhs to the Board and is
also rendering practical cooperation which raises the hope that the
educational standard of Madhya Pradesh Muslims will improve in future and
will also pave the way for economic progress. The well-known educationist,
Nisar Ahmad Farooqi (Delhi) said that drawing up programmes and projects
is not as important as their implementation and giving them practical
shapes. Professor Akhtarul Wase (Delhi), addressing the conference, said
that both the responsible authorities of Madrasa Board and the Madhya
Pradesh government deserve congratulations for putting the plan into
practice. The main responsibility, however, now falls on the heads of
madrasas and its responsible people to give full cooperation to Madrasa
Board and implement the plans in all earnestness, leading these to
success.
Addressing the inaugural session of the workshop, the principal secretary,
School Education, Madhya Pradesh, J.L. Bose said that the government has
taken up the task of Madrasa Board on priority basis and will give full
cooperation and assistance to Madrasa Board in achieving the objectives of
its creation. q |
