NCPCR chairman flags use of Pak books in Bihar madrassas

The NCPCR chairman Priyank Kanoongo criticised Unicef’s involvement in creating a “radical curriculum” for Bihar’s government-funded madrassas and the use of Pakistan-published books. He raised concerns about Hindu children enrolling in these madrassas and recommended a UN probe and dissolution of the Madrassa Board, calling the curriculum development an act of appeasement.
