The High Court yesterday directed the Chairman and Registrar of the Madrasa Education Board not to hand over any money to the Education Ministry and Madrasa Teachers Training Institute from the fund of the board.

After hearing a writ petition filed by principal of Borail Alim Madrasa Noor Mohammad Rabbani, a division bench of the High Court comprising Justice MA Matin and Justice M Rezaul Haque also issued a rule on the government to show cause as to why its order to give Tk1 crore to Education Ministry and Madrasa Teachers Training Institute from the fund of the board should not be declared illegal.

The Ministry of Education on August 16 this year ordered the Madrasa Board to hand over Tk one crore to Education Ministry and Madrasa Teachers Training Institute.
