The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has withdrawn its newly released class 8 social science textbook following controversy over a chapter on judicial corruption. The Supreme Court imposed a blanket ban on its further publication and dissemination. NCERT expressed regret for the unintentional inclusion of inappropriate content.
The NCERT has released a draft syllabus for Class 9 social science textbooks, emphasizing Indian knowledge systems and cultural contributions. Set for release in March, these books will highlight indigenous intellect in fields like mathematics, philosophy, science, and more. The curriculum stresses inquiry-driven learning.
