Minister for Social Welfare H.C. Mahadevappa said that the Congress government will remove the alleged distortion of history in the textbooks made during the BJP regime.
When his attention was drawn to the meeting of a group of writers and litterateurs with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in Bengaluru in the connection, Mr. Mahadevappa pointed out that the Congress had opposed the distortion of history in the textbooks when it was in the Opposition.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru on Tuesday, the Social Welfare Minister said there was a need set right the historical facts in textbooks and the measure was not merely to undo whatever BJP government had done.
