Mufti Naeem said the COAS only requested for the implementation of mandatory topics like English, Math, Pak Studies, and so on in Madaris, to enable every religious school student to attend the Federal Board Examination and receive Matric and FA and F.Sc degrees besides receiving a public degree. Thus, the gathering was informed that Madaris learners had a larger career path and could join forces of defence, become physicians, technicians, etc. Gen Bajwa, according to Mufti Naeem, also assured the Ulema that the government’s reform programme in no manner will compromise the independence of the Madaris.

He said that the Ministry of Education will set up its 12 regional offices in different parts of the country to facilitate the registration of the Madaris. He insisted that the government is not “taking over” Madaris but said that Madaris, which will not be registered will be closed down. Similarly, he said the Madaris, which will be found involved in spreading hatred and sectarianism will also lose their registration and would be closed down as well. The second aspect of the Madrassa Reform Programme, he said is the introduction of compulsory subjects like English, Pakistan Studies, Maths etc to enable the students of religious schools to appear for Federal Board’s Matric, FSC, FA exams. Shafqat Mehmood said this particular initiative will open a variety of career choices for the madrassa students as well. The minister added the regional offices of the education ministry will facilitate the madrassa not only in their registration but will also extend help in other matters like the issuance of visas for their foreign students. He said depending on the availability of funding, the government will also financially assist these Madaris in hiring teachers for compulsory subjects.
