Supreme Court ban on transfer of students
New Delhi . The Supreme Court has put a stay on the recommendations of the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights. It was said in the recommendation that the recognition of madrassas which do not follow the Right to Education Act 2009 should be withdrawn. Their government assistance should be stopped. Instructions were given to inspect all the madrassas of the country.
The Supreme Court has also stayed the Uttar Pradesh government’s order to transfer all non-Muslim students studying in unrecognized and government-aided Madras schools to government schools.
The orders of the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights were challenged in the division bench of the Supreme Court comprising Chief Justice Murthy DY Chandrachud, Justice JB Pardiwala and Justice Manoj Mishra. After hearing the petition of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind in the Supreme Court, the division bench has issued this order.
Second blow to Uttar Pradesh government regarding madrassas
The Supreme Court has given the second major blow to the Uttar Pradesh government in 7 months. Before this, the Allahabad High Court had given the decision to repeal the Madrasa Act 2004. The Supreme Court had stayed that order on April 5. In this way, this is the second major blow to the Uttar Pradesh government regarding madrassas.
