Partho Chatterjee said that these schools propagate Hindutva and if things don’t improve, licenses of these schools may be cancelled. This announcement has ruffled guite a few feathers as opposition party BJP has come out in support of RSS.
Things are heating up in the state on this issue. Bengal government wants to take action against schools which preach Hindutva, on the other hand RSS is raising question on the Madarsas of state. Bengal head of RSS Jishnu basu said that about 10,000 unrecognized Madarsas are being run in Bengal. Islam is preached in these Madarsas. If Islam can be taught in Madarsas, then why can’t Hindutva be taught in these schools?
