Madrasa education
To bring madrasa education on a par with the general education is a long overdue demand of the educationists, from late Dr. Qudrat-e-Khuda to the present education minister. How will a madrasa student get such education that would prepare him to join the mainstream workforce, without only being Imams of mosques? As they are not taught Bangla literature, English or even science, their education remains incomplete. However, Ershad upgraded madrasa education without improving it in line with Qudrat-e-Khuda Commission. Alia madrasas have, however, included some of the above mentioned subjects in their syllabus but Qawmi madrasas have confined their teachings only to Arabic study. There is no alternative to revamping the curriculum of madrasa education.
