Mysuru MP claims opposition to textbook revision is coming from supporters of Congress

Even as former Chief Minister V Sadananda Gowda sought to assure critics of the textbook revision that the Karnataka Government will consider valid objections and take necessary corrective measures, Mysuru MP Pratap Simha lashed out at writers who have kicked up a row over the revision of school textbooks.

Mr Simha told reporters in Mysuru that opposition to the textbook revision is coming from litterateurs who were beholden to the Congress party.

He claimed that Baragur Ramachandrappa had not come up with any literary work worth remembering in the last 20 years while the youth were done with reading the works of Devanur Mahadeva.
