A school curriculum steering committee meeting on Tuesday decided to prepare supplementary textbooks for Plus One and Plus Two higher secondary subjects for which the State uses the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) textbooks.
The NCERT had recently deleted portions related to history of Mughal courts, references to communal riots in Gujarat in 2002, Hindutva extremists’ dislike for Mahatma Gandhi, Naxalite movement, Industrial Revolution, the Cold War, and so on, from its textbooks.
