NCERT Textbook War: EDU Min Dharmendra Pradhan On NCERT Row, Portraying Akbar As Cruel Is Truth

Описание: The opposition has accused the government of promoting Hindu ideology through changes in NCERT textbooks, specifically citing the portrayal of Akbar as a cruel ruler. In an exclusive interview, Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan defends the revisions, stating they are based on historical evidence. He asserts that for a long time after independence, history was presented from a convenient perspective. Pradhan argues against what he refers to as Macaulay's conspiracy to destroy India's soul by altering its education system. According to him, the new curriculum is not about BJP or Sangh ideology, but about reconnecting with India's heritage. "We don't want to forget anything, we don't want to blind anyone, but we want to establish the truth," he states, affirming that figures like Suhaldev and Balak Baji Raut are being included to present a fuller picture of Indian history.
