This is a retrograde step. The Govt of India is collecting surcharge on all direct taxes as education cess. The same should be utilized for providing modern education to all students irrespective of caste, creed, colour or religion. All possible assitance should be provided to the muslim students also for acquiring modern education.
What does our Govt expect from the students coming out of Madrassas? How will they cope up with the comptitive world outside? At the most some of them can become teachers in Madrassas!
