After Education Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma rejected the motion by Congress and AIUDF members to send the 2020 Assam Repeal Act to a selected committee to have “appropriate discussion” on the issue, spokesman Hitendra Nath Goswami introduced the law to vote.

After seeing a noisy scene, the bill was passed with a majority. Members of all allies of the BJP, the Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) and the Bodoland People’s Front (BPF), supported the change of government.

The bill proposes to abolish two existing laws – the Assam Madrassa Education (Provincialization) Act of 1995 and the Assam Madrassa Education (Provincialization of Services of Employees and Reorganization of Madrassa Educational Institutions) Act, 2018.

“I think this will be a gift to the minority community. The students studying in these madrasas will welcome the decision after 10 years,” Sarma replied to the opposition members’ objections.

According to the bill, all madrasas will be converted into upper primary, higher and upper secondary schools with effect from April 1st next year without any change in the status, salary, allowances and service conditions of teaching and non-teaching staff.
