AIMPLB opposes Yoga, 'Surya Namaskar' in schools
Lucknow, June 8
The All India Muslim Personal
Law Board (AIMPLB) on Monday decided to launch a campaign against the
union government's move to make Yoga and 'Surya Namaskar' compulsory in
schools across the country.
The decision was taken in a meeting
of the executive committee of the board which decided to constitute a
committee - Majlis-e-Amal -to look into this particular matter and other
issues related to 'taleem' (education) and if need be approach the apex
court against the move of the Narendra Modi government at the Centre.
AIMPLB
spokesman Maulana Abdul Raheem Qureshi said that such moves by the Modi
government were sowing the seed of insecurity among minorities,
specially Muslims.
"Whatever is unfolding is not good for the
secular fabric of the country and Modi should realise that he is the
prime minister of India and not that of RSS," he quipped.
