Describing Pakistan as a "nefarious country," Qasmi said that it was essential to teach it a lesson for the way it attacked the country and killed "unarmed brothers" in Pahalgam. He also described the April 22 terrorist attack as a disregard for the Quran.
Qasmi said that a committee will soon be called to implement the decision to include Operation Sindoor in the curriculum. He also said that work is being done continuously to connect madrasas with the mainstream in Uttarakhand, and accordingly, the NCERT curriculum has been implemented in the madrasas of the state.
