State will include the erased sections in the Kerala school curriculum
Previously, minister V Sivankutty stated that the state will include the erased sections in the Kerala school curriculum. Mughal history, Gujarat riots, and Darwin’s theory of evolution had all been removed from school textbooks by NCERT. ‘You cannot reject inconvenient historical facts by simply removing them from textbooks. It is clear that the goal is to completely saffronize textbooks through such measures,’ CM Pinarayi Vijayan stated. The state administration had objected to NCERT’s approach, and Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan had stated that removing a few chapters and sections from its textbooks for political reasons is not only a denial of history, but also reprehensible.
