    A Rapid Program to Reform Arabic Colleges (Presented on 10Th December 2020)

    A Rapid Program to Reform Arabic Colleges (Presented on 10th December 2020) 1) Introduction On the 21st of April 2019, three churches and three luxury hotels in Colombo were subjected to a series of coordinated terrorist suicide bombings. These were followed by two other separate explosions in Dehiwala and Dematagoda. The day ended with the death of 267 people and leaving close to 500 others injured. This catastrophe is referred to as the ‘Easter Sunday Attack’. It is believed that the attacks were planned and executed by a local Islamic militant group either independently or with foreign collaboration. There have been demands from the Muslim community for reforming the Madrasa education institutes long before the Easter Sunday attacks for reasons of the quality and quantity issues. Anyway the demand for reforming these institutes were intensified not only from Muslims but others too, especially after Easter Terror attack. Since then, there have been several attempts to reform the current system, but none have reached fruition. “Draft Madrasa Education Act” was also drafted and presented to the cabinet on 13th May 2019 by the then Minister of Muslim Religious Affairs with the support of all Muslim parliamentarians and Ulama. A final draft was submitted on the 17th July 2019 with the view of other members of the cabinet accommodated with the change of name as “Draft Islamic Education Act”. Consequently, on the 14th of May 2019, the Sectoral Oversight Committee on National Security was presented with an initial set of proposals signed by Hon. Members of Parliament to be reviewed. The Sectoral Oversight Committee on National Security published its Report of the Proposals for Formulation and Implementation of relevant laws required to ensure National Security that will eliminate New Terrorism and Extremism by strengthening friendship among Races and Religions on the 19th of February 2020.
