Unauthorized madrasas were not granted permission. Nitin Saxena, the chairman of the state madrasa board, told the Free Press that the improved results are attributed to this measure by the board.
He mentioned that surveys were conducted across the state, with district education officers personally visiting madrasas. For instance, in Bhopal, they ensured the provision of proper midday meals, books, and other necessary resources for the students, added Saxena.
When Free Press spoke to Ali Qadr, from the Madrasa located at Lal Ghati, he said that to better academic outcome, we have organised counseling sessions for both teachers and students. “We do not enroll individuals who are not interested in studying according to the standard board pattern in our regular classes,” he further said.
The school education department announced the results of board classes 5 and 8 on Tuesday. It revealed that 90.97% of students passed in grade 5, while 87.71% successfully cleared the class 8 exam.
