New Delhi: Three madrassas controlled by illegal Bangladeshi migrants were indoctrinating youths, the central government said Wednesday.
Minister of State for Home Affairs Haribhai Parathibhai Chaudhary, citing a written document, informed the Rajya Sabha: "During investigations into the Burdwan blast case, it has been disclosed that in three madrassas controlled by illegal Bangladeshi migrants, religious extremism and indoctrination were being preached."
"There is no information with the government that madrassas in general are involved in training of terrorists," Chaudhary said.
The minister said the central government gets information about various institutions, including madrassas, from open sources as well as from security and intelligence agencies.
