Super-30-like coaching centres for Muslim students on the anvil

[Contrarian]

As I said the solution lies in opening more and more government schools in areas with muslim population.

Though these schools would be open to all, the presence near Muslim population automatically means a high number of Muslims will enroll.

Problem solved.

^^^ I agree with you that some Muslims communities in India do need a bit of a push & some amount of reservation is necessary. No getting away from the fact. However political interference only engenders resentment & I cannot yet see a solution to that.

That is a communal mindset, you should instead provide a boost to all genuinely disadvantaged individuals. Here you want the govt to give one genuinely poor person a kick while embracing some else based on his communal identity.

Sure there will be rich dalit and poor brahmin but they are small in percentage terms. I know it sounds inherently unfair but we live in a deeply unjust and unfair society, without govt's help its not going to change.

Actually corrupt govts do this to reinforce the communal mindset, so that people think of themselves not as human beings but as members of some sectarian group. It helps in vote bank politics.

Cannot completely disagree but we do have caste based reservations. While reservations for Muslims won't fall under the same category, I believe that it is fundamentally important to find a way to change the present socio-economic condition of the Muslim community. I'm not necessarily asking for additional reservation but some allowance for some Muslims based on socio-economic conditions within present reservation limits.

Constitution can be changed, and SC can reinterpret it, whats so big deal..

Not so fast. Constitution cannot be changed to alter what the SC calls the basic structure. Does not matter what majority you have.

NEW DELHI: The HRD ministry is planning a nationwide network of learning centres for Muslim students to coach them for prestigious entrance tests like the IITs/IIMs and other engineering/management institutes as well as medical colleges.

In another initiative to ensure government programme reaches directly to Muslim students, the ministry has also decided that instead of concentrating on 90 minority-concentrated districts, it would adopt a block-level approach.


To be modeled on the lines of highly successful free Super-30 coaching centre run in Bihar for underprivileged children, the proposal is to have similar learning centres in state capitals. Jitin Prasada, minister of state for HRD, told TOI, "The idea is to train Muslim students for higher education. About 100 to 200 students would be selected after entrance test and then comprehensively prepared for tough engineering and medical entrance tests. They would be given free training." Prasada expects these centres to become operational over the next few months. He said the HRD ministry is working on the modalities of running these centres. "We are examining if help of good NGOs can be taken. Rahmani Foundation of Bihar is doing a commendable job," he added.

Rahmani Foundation of Munger in Bihar has been training Muslim students for engineering entrance tests. Known as Rahmani-30, each year Muslim students are given admission to the coaching centre after an entrance test and their entire expenses are taken care of. Rahmani-30 has been helped by Bihar DGP Abhayanand, who was behind the success of Super-30.

As for the block-level approach, HRD sources said it has been found that though number of schools and other educational facilities have gone up in minority-concentrated districts the benefits are not reaching them. The reason being that though infrastructure comes up in the district it is still far from the areas of Muslim concentration. Block-level approach, Prasada said, would help the beneficiaries directly. There are 3,451 educationally backward blocks in India, out of which 680 are in Uttar Pradesh alone.

Hope these areas won't be attacked by angry Hindu mobs...

 

[Kloitra]

surely state has no preference for any religion, but for last 50 years, the recipient of reservation have been hindus, mostly, right? No violation of secular credentials I guess.

Govt made a system. It is on people to use it. Even now Muslim prefer madarsas, avoid higher education, combined the fact of them being minority, is the reason for mostly Hindus being the beneficiary. Mind set of people is responsible, not the policy.

Actually these Coaching centers are made so that intelligent Muslims children get accumulated at one place & Its easy for Hindu mob to kill them together ...

U know its so tiresome to search & find each and every one... now we can kill all of them at once...

Plan kaisa haii mere Bhai !!! haii na ekdum full on...

 

[IamINDIA]

i think this is because the Muslim community in India has not benefited from welfare schemes that much, and remains one of the poorest in the country. I think its a good initiative, but should be open to all people when enough development has taken place in the Muslim community.

This action is well known in Pakistan... (Recently Christian colony was attacked by PAKISTANI Mob)...Don Worry about India...We can take care of any issue related with our country.
