Madrasa Education Ordinance, 1978

Sections 3(1) and 17(2)(b)- Government cancelling recognition and withdrawing Monthly Payment Order (M.P.O) Careful examination of the relevant law and the fact obtaining in the case shows that the Ministry of Education acted contrary to law and against the principles of natural justice inasmuch as the order impugned in the writ petition cancelling the recognition of the Madrasa not only contravenes sections 3(1) and 17(2)(b) of the Madrasa Education Ordinance, 1978 but also offends the principle of natural justice in cancelling the recognition of the Madrasa as no prior notice was issued calling upon the concerned Madrasa authority to explain their position. We therefore find the impugned judgment to have been passed in accordance with law. The appeal is accordingly dismissed without any order as to costs. ...
