Madrasas across Maharashtra will not be recognised as formal schools

New controversy stirs up as Maharashtra is set to declare around one lakh students in the state as 'out of school children'. The BJP led government has announced that madrasas which do not offer Mathematics, Science and Social Studies will not be recognised as formal schools.
The BJP government has conveyed to the school education department of the state, which is conducting a day long survey on July 4, to determine the number of 'out of school' children in the state, in a letter written by the state's minority affairs department.
The Muslim organisations and opposition parties opposed this decision of the government.
Education minister Vinod Tawde told Indian Express that those students of madrasas who follow proper academic curriculum will not be counted as 'out of school'. Only vedic schools who teach only vedas will be classified as non-schools, as said by Nand Kumar, Maharashtra's Secretary (school education).
