Uttar Pradesh Board of Madrassa Education (UPBME) has banned co-education in madrassas across Uttar Pradesh, stating it is against the 'spirit of Islam'.
"In Islam, parda (veil) is very important. By allowing co-education we promote 'be-pardgi' (women without veil), which is against Shariyat. "This is why we have directed all the madrassas to do away with the co-education system from this academic session. And we will ensure that this directive is followed in letter and spirit," UPBME Chairman Haji Rizawan Haq had said.
