In a big relief to about 17 lakh madrassa students in Uttar Pradesh, the Supreme Court has temporarily paused an Allahabad High Court order that scrapped the UP Madrassa Act. This decision allows studies to continue in around 16,000 madrassas across the state operating under the UP Board of Madarsa Education Act, 2004.
The bench, led by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud said that the high court decision was prima facie not correct and issued notices to the Uttar Pradesh government.
The court has sought a reply from the UP government and posted the matter for further hearing in the second week of July. Until then, the high court order will remain on hold.
The high court had last month declared the UP Board of Madarsa Education Act, 2004 "unconstitutional" for violating the principle of secularism and directed the state government to accommodate the madrasa students in the formal education system.
