The word Madrasah is an Arabic word which means an educational institution or school imparting education to all sects irrespective cast, religion or creed. This kind of education system in Bengal was grown up and flourished with the foundation of the Calcutta Madrasah in the year 1780 by the British East India Company. In the year 1994, the Board has been given the status of statutory autonomous body by passing the West Bengal Board of Madrasah Education Act.
Now the board functions like any other state board in the country and enjoy the same administrative and financial powers and facilities. The board not only direct, supervises or controls all types of Madrasah’s but make them centre of excellence, student friendly and comfortable for the families of minorities so that they can get the proper education.
