The Indian government gives Rs 1,000 crores (Rs 10 billion) for salaries of imams in mosques and Rs 200 crores (Rs 2 billion) as Haj subsidies.
Why the Government in a "Secular" Country waste the tax-payers money on futile exercises like Haj and Madrassa education? What do they expect from the Madrassa educated youth? Have the leaders who always cry hoarse about back-wardness of minorities thought of how they will cope up with the comptitive world outside?
The Govt is collecting "Education Cess" on all direct taxes. Why that money is not channeled for imparting modern education to all (irrespective of caste, creed, colour or religion) ?
