Approximately 50,000 students study in the state's 451 registered madrasas. Information about Operation Sindoor will now be included as a chapter in all these madrasas. This operation involved the successful destruction of terrorist bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir by the Indian Armed Forces.
