After prolonged delays, the president has finally signed the madrassa registration bill into law. Many believe the delay was a calculated move to pressure the JUI-F. Despite the bill’s eventual passage, the government’s reluctance to approve it immediately raised suspicions. Instead of addressing the bill’s issues promptly, the government seemingly used the delay to negotiate with groups that were unhappy with the JUI-F’s influence. To placate these groups, the government introduced an ordinance that has created two separate systems for madrassa registration.
The dual registration systemis likely to complicate regulation rather than streamline it. The handling of the bill reflects poorly on the government’s decision-making and raises broader concerns about its ability to ensure transparent and effective governance.
