RIGHTS OF MINORITIES TO ESTABLISH AND ADMINISTER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

The Preamble of our Constitution aims at securing the unity and integrity of the nation. To maintain justice and freedom of opinion, belief, faith, and worship, minority populations enjoy religious and cultural protections guaranteed by the Constitution. Treating unequal as equals is as bad as treating equals as unequal. Everyone has the right to equality and the same possibilities under our Constitution, yet treating people equally means treating those differently who weren't born alike. Because minorities in India have faced such terrible discrimination and are not treated equally with others, our Constitution's founders guaranteed special rights to minorities under Articles 29 and 30. The idea of granting minorities some special rights is to make them feel secure. The purpose of special rights for minorities is to ensure the preservation of minority institutions and to ensure autonomy in the management of these institutions, not to foster inequality but to promote equality. Education empowers and enlightens society. An essential component of human development is education. The preamble to the constitution states that the golden goals of Justice, Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity, including social, economic, and political justice, must be attained for the Indian polity to succeed.
