Union Water Resources Minister Saifuddin Soz on Monday said he is not in favour of the Sachar committee recommendation recognising degrees provided by madarsas.
"There should be a national curriculum for all," he said and referred to his visit to eastern Uttar Pradesh where he found that madarsa education was a compulsion for some school going children.
Soz said Muslims should be educated in modern government-run educational institutions.
