Pune (Maharashtra) : Under the curriculum devised by National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), history of Mughal invaders has been described in 60 pages of the text book whereas information on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj has been given in just 6 lines.
Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) has been therefore, making demand for past several years that such curriculum should be changed; as has been done in Goa.
Shri. Vinod Tawade, the Minister for Education and Culture was asked a question by Kum. Shalaka Sahastrabuddhe, a reporter of ‘Sanatan Prabhat’ in this context during the press conference held on 30th April. Shri. Tawade replied, “Only 25% part of the curriculum of NCERT and CBSE comes under the jurisdiction of State Government. It is therefore, not possible to interfere in their field beyond that limit; however, necessary instructions would be given for part coming under State Government’s control.” (Instead of giving only instructions, the State Government should follow up the matter with the Central Government. Hindus expect that situation should not be created where they would have to stage agitations in this context !- Editor, Dainik Sanatan Prabhat)
