BAGHPAT — Sadhvi Prachi who has climbed the Hindutva ladder through her hate speeches has again made a series of inflammatory statements targeting the country’s Muslim community, particularly focusing on madrasas and Maulana Arshad Madani, president of Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind.
The controversial priestess labelled madrasas in Uttar Pradesh as centres for terrorist training and called for their closure, insisting that terrorism will persist in the country if these institutions are allowed to operate.
Addressing a crowd, Prachi specifically demanded investigations into madrasas in western Uttar Pradesh, including Shamli, Muzaffarnagar, and Saharanpur. “These institutions are breeding grounds for extremism,” she said. “Unless the government acts, the nation will continue to face threats.”
Her remarks also included a direct attack on Maulana Arshad Madani. Prachi alleged that his recent statements aim to provoke unrest and create a “civil war-like situation” in the country. She criticised the existence of two parallel education systems, questioning why one country and one constitution should allow such divisions.
Maulana Madani has alleged discrimination against Muslims in the context of multiple investigations into Al Falah University, in connection with the November 10 Red Fort blasts.
Community leaders have condemned Sadhvi Prachi’s comments as provocative and misleading. “Madrasas are legitimate centres of religious learning and play an essential role in the education of children in our community,” said Maulana Asif Qadri, a cleric from Muzaffarnagar. “To label them as terrorism training centres without evidence is not only false but dangerous. Statements like these risk inciting hatred and suspicion against Muslims.”
