“There is no harm in it. I want that the country should have a prime minister from the minority community,” he told reporters when asked about Indian-origin Rishi Sunak becoming the prime minister of the UK. On the Darul Uloom Deoband, Saharanpur, Barq said it did not need any recognition as many madrasas are associated with it. “If there is any shortcoming in it, the government should fulfil it,” he said.
According to a government survey, prominent Islamic seminary Darul Uloom Deoband and other 305 madrasas in Saharanpur district are not recognised by the Uttar Pradesh Madarsa Education Board
