Supreme Court upheld the validity of Uttar Pradesh Madrasa Education Board Act

Latest News :- The Supreme Court has confirmed and issued orders that the Madrassa Education Act brought in and implemented by the Uttar Pradesh state government will proceed. In 2004, the Samajwadi Party-led government in Uttar Pradesh brought in the Madrassa Education Act. Anshuman Singh Rathore filed a case against this in Allahabad High Court. He has said that: Madrasa Education Act 2004 brought by the Uttar Pradesh State Government is against the Constitution itself. This act is illegal. This should be cancelled. Anshuman had said this in his petition.

The Allahabad High Court also ruled that students studying in madrassas in the state of Uttar Pradesh should be transferred to other government schools after the investigation into the case is completed. An appeal was filed against this decision in the Supreme Court. In April, the Supreme Court had stayed the Allahabad High Court's decision in this case. In this case, Chief Justice D.Y. A bench of Justice Chandrachud, Justice JP Pardiwala and Justice Manoj Mishra gave this verdict yesterday. The bench headed by Justice Chandrachud said that the Madrasa Act implemented by the Uttar Pradesh government will proceed. After this we cancel the decision given by Allahabad High Court.

The state government has the power to regulate minority educational institutions. The Uttar Pradesh Madrassa Education Act brought by the state government does not violate the principle of secularism. Therefore, we have upheld the validity of the Uttar Pradesh Madrasa Act. He said the Allahabad High Court was wrong to say that the Madrassa Act should be struck down for violating the basic structure of secularism. In the case, Justice JP Pardiwala said that teaching religion is not prohibited by the Constitution. Such religious instructions are not exclusive to the Muslim community. It's the same in other religions, he said.
