Bangladesh on Wednesday launched a probe on schools bearing the name ‘Peace’, suspecting them to be linked with controversial Indian Islamic preacher Zakir Naik’s ‘Peace TV’ which was banned this week over allegations of inspiring terrorists.<\/p>\n
Though the government does not have any specific data on how many schools are being operated with the word ‘Peace’ in their names, an official said 28 schools in Bangladesh have ‘Peace’ in their names.<\/p>\n
The schools, in the capital Dhaka and in other parts of the country, are allegedly being operated in line with the controversial Islamic preacher’s ideals by adding ‘Peace’ to their names, bdnews24.com reported.<\/p>\n
Bangladesh on Sunday banned Mumbai-based Naik’s channel after reports that “provocative” speeches inspired some of the militants who carried out the country’s worst terror attack.<\/p>\n
