Most of the general education institutes in the country provide co-education; meaning men and women receive education together. “I don’t understand how I became someone against women’s education when the board I head is allowing thousands to women to receive higher education.”The Hefazat-e-Islam amir said he wants to run women’s education institutes in a segregated way. “We are not against women education, but we’re promoting safe education institution for women. It is important to have education but we can’t send our daughters to unsafe places for such education,” he said. “The way we are providing the highest education for women in a safe environment should be followed.”
