Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Dinesh Sharma said that after getting approval from the state government, the Uttar Pradesh Madrasa board has started preparation to teach students from National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) books.

"The students (at Madrasa) will be taught about modern issues and they will compete with other schools in the same arena.(sic)," said Dinesh Sharma tweeted.
