  "account": "The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has strongly condemned exiled Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasrin's inflammatory remarks calling for a ban on madrasas. AIMPLB spokesperson S.Q.R. Ilyas labeled Nasrin's comments as irresponsible and baseless, stating that they attempt to interfere in India's internal affairs. Ilyas objected to the allegations that Islamic seminaries promote terrorism, claiming that such accusations are slanderous and attempt to malign an entire religious and educational tradition. AIMPLB urged the Indian government to prevent foreign nationals from spreading hatred under the guise of freedom of expression and interfering in the country's internal affairs. The board's concerns echoed those of Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind, whose president Arshad Madani also criticized attempts to label madrasas as hubs of terrorism. Madani accused leaders of organizations whose leaders sought pardon from the British of making baseless allegations against madrasas.",
