Bengaluru: In a significant step, Minorities Welfare and Wakf Minister B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan has instructed madrassas in the state to teach Science, Mathematics, Kannada, and English subjects to students.
Zameer Ahmed Khan chaired a progress review meeting at the Directorate of Minorities Welfare, where he directed officials to include a diverse curriculum in madrassas.
