New Delhi, March 07 (ANI): NCPCR Chairperson Priyank Kanoongo reacted to the syllabus guidelines of Darul Uloom Madrasa. He alleged that they are glorifying ‘Gazwa-e-Hind’. NCPCR has summoned Collector and SP Saharanpur to Delhi and asked for a report and clarification. Priyank Kanoongo said, "In Saharanpur, at the place called Deoband, there is a Madrasa called Darul Uloom. It controls the Madrasa education system in South Asia. They glorified Gazwa-e-Hind through a fatwa. We gave a notice to the UP government to take action against them. UP Govt said that this fatwa was issued in 2008. The fatwa taught that whoever gets killed during Gazwa-e-Hind will be considered a martyr. It was issued on December 1, 2008, just after the 26/11 attacks. We have summoned Collector and SP Saharanpur to Delhi and asked for a report and clarification. Darul Uloom manages a vast educational area globally. Children can get into inappropriate activities by being influenced by Deoband. Maulanas related to Darul Uloom receive crores of funding from Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind UK. This organisation funds Pakistan too... Are they trying to portray Ajmal Kasab as a martyr in the eyes of the children?”
