The chairman of Uttar Pradesh Madrasa Board, Dr Iftikhar Ahmed Javed, alleged that he wasn`t consulted ahead of the SIT probe into alleged foreign funding of madrasas. He alleged that he was also not consulted before the state government came out with its report of unrecognised madrasas. The state Madrasa Board chairman alleged further that while he was made a party to the ongoing investigation into the alleged foreign funding of madrasas, the probe reports were being kept away from him.
Javed claimed there was a major furore during the probe against madrasas 11 months ago and politicians and even a section of government officials had objected to bringing the Islamic seminaries under the ambit of the investigation. "Eleven have passed since the investigation into the functioning of madras was conducted. What happened to the report? Was it presented in the Assembly or brought into the public domain? If not, then who spread the misinformation on foreign funding of madrasas?" Javed alleged.
