| Fazl hates that madrassah ordinance... |
| 2002-06-22 |
| Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has flayed the presidential ordinance for Madaris, stating that his party would oppose the new laws and ban on foreign donations to religious institutions. In a press release issued Friday, he said the government had formed a Madrassah Board to end the autonomy of the religious institutions, but his party would never recognise the board. No surprises there. Without Soddy money, the madrassahs will wither on the vine, and the jihadi movement with them. |
