The Delhi High Court on Wednesday sought response from the Central government on a plea challenging the decision of the Ministry of Minority Affairs which has approved the proposal of Central Waqf Council to close the Maulana Azad Education Foundation (MAEF).
A government-funded organisation, the MAEF had played pivotal role in disbursing funds, especially for education, particularly through schemes like the Maulana Azad National Fellowship, which was already discontinued by the Centre in 2022.
