India Today
The Uttar Pradesh government will develop an app with stories of freedom fighters for madrassa students, while their curriculum will be based on NEP 2020.
The Uttar Pradesh government is going to develop a mobile application for children studying in Madrasas that will include life stories of freedom fighters. This is being done by the state government in a bid to provide ‘modern education’. The government wants students studying in madrassas to be ‘full of patriotism’, said UP Minority Welfare Minister Danish Azad Ansari while announcing the initiative.
The state Minority Welfare Minister Danish Azad Ansari stated,“A mobile app based on madrasa curriculum will be developed for modern education and life stories of great men and freedom fighters will be taught there,”
“Madrasa students should be full of patriotism. The Yogi Adityanath government will also provide grants for weddings of poor women from the Muslim community,” he added.
Uttar Pradesh’s Minority Affairs Minister Dharampal Singh had earlier said that the education curriculum for madrasas in the state will be based on National Education Policy 2020, consisting of topics regarding nationalism and will not have stories of terrorists.
The minister had said, "The education in madrasas will be given according to the new National Education Policy. Nationalism will be taught to students in madrasas of the state. There will be no talks of terrorists," he said.
The minister had further informed that madrasa students would also be provided with commercial education.
