Digital Desk: Assam chief minister, Himanta Biswa Sarma, has vowed to continue his campaign against madrasas in the state, saying that people prefer to get their education from schools and universities.
"I have closed 600 madrasas and plan to close all madrasas because we do not want madrasas. We want schools, colleges, and institutions," Sarma said while addressing the BJP's "Vijay Sankalp Yatra" in election-bound Karnataka’s Belagavi on Thursday.
All state-run madrasas were to be transformed into "regular schools" that provide "general education," according to a controversial bill that Sarma had notably sponsored in Assam in 2020. As of January 2023, there were 3,000 registered and unregistered madrasas in the state.
The senior BJP politician increased his rhetoric against illegal immigrants, saying that "people from Bangladesh come to Assam and present a threat to our civilization and culture."

He also criticized the Left and the Congress for allegedly twisting India's history with a "pro-Mughal" narrative.
He compared the opposing party to the Mughals and claimed that they were attempting to weaken the country. He criticized the party for bringing up the Babri Masjid dispute and for opposing the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
