News Desk: Assam Education Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Tuesday made a controversial comment on Islam. He said “In my opinion, teaching ‘Quran’ can’t happen at the cost of government money, if we have to do so then we should also teach both the Bible and Bhagavad Gita. So, we want to bring uniformity and stop this practice. All State-run madrassas will be converted into regular schools or in certain cases teachers will be transferred to state-run schools and madrassas will be shut down. A notification will be released in November”
He added “Many Muslim boys open their Facebook accounts using Hindu names and then they fool the Hindu girls in getting married with them. These marriages are not authentic but a betrayal. The government will try to find out if marriages are happening as per wish or someone is being fooled in getting married. Strict action will be taken against those marriages which are done using fake names”
