Qawmi

Qawmi (Bengali: কওমী; also variously phonetically transliterated as Quawmi, Quomi, Qaumi, Qaumee, Kawmi, or Qawmy) is an adjective describing one of the two major madrasah educational categories in Bangladesh. By definition, all madrasahs not regulated by the Bangladesh Madrasah Education Board are Qawmi. As private charitable organizations, Qawmi madrasahs are supported almost exclusively by donation.
