KARACHI: Around 93 madrassas in Pakistan's Sindh province have "solid links" with terror groups or banned outfits and authorities will soon launch an operation against those Islamic religious schools harbouring terrorists, a media report said on Wednesday.

Pakistani intelligence agencies have credible information about the activities taking place in these madrassas, according to The Express Tribune.

A special meeting held at the Sindh chief minister's house to review the law and order in the province was apprised about these numbers on Tuesday, the report said.

Chief minister Murad Ali Shah presided over the meeting, which was also attended by the Rangers director-general Major General Bilal Akbar and provincial heads of intelligence agencies among other members of civilian leadership.

The chief minister directed the police and Rangers to begin an operation against madrassas harbouring terrorists.

"This kind of attitude will not be accepted," said Shah.

"We will not allow anybody to shed blood of innocent people in the name of religion or using a sacred place. This operation will also be targeted and intelligence-based."

The operation will be started just after Chehlum, a religious observance that occurs 40 days after the Day of Ashura.

He further directed the home department to put the 93 madrassas involved in dubious activities on the watch list and maintain a record of their day-to-day activities.

The heads of law enforcement agencies briefed the chief minister about the recent arrests of some high-profile terrorists who have given clues of other terrorists living in the city and about their plans.

It was pointed out that illegal immigrants living in Karachi and in its outskirts and slum areas were either harbouring terrorists or supporting them. Some of them are directly involved in terrorist activities, the report said.

What new in it? Who created them? Who let them grow? The society has been pushed to where it is going.

Sindh has all sorts of terrorists, religious ones are just one page to be cleared out though and sindh is heavily feudalistic. Everyone knows!

Cleansing involves cleaning every pore. Sindh needs a good facial treatment

I think if PTI had a chance to run Sindh we would see a lot of improvements for Pakistan as a whole.

They got KPK in order in a relatively short amount of time. PPP has done NOTHING for the people of Sindh and rule as feudal lords, giving nothing back to the people.

Why can't the Pakistani government ban all the madrassas .If my understanding is correct this is the soul reason for problems. Why can't the Pakistani government give free education to all children till age 13 like they do in India ? .. Of course the quality of those government school are really bad but surely we can easily reduce the terrorism problem.

Note: My understanding of madrassas - it is a school run by religious groups which will teach their religious beliefs along with the education to the students.
