After NCERT Row, Information Ministry Asked To Stop Circulation Of Book

In a significant move following the ongoing controversy surrounding certain National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) textbooks, the Union Ministry of Education has directed the ministries of Information and Broadcasting, and Electronics to halt the distribution of a particular textbook via digital platforms and electronic media. This decision comes amid concerns raised by various stakeholders regarding the content of the NCERT materials, which some have deemed inappropriate or misleading. The request to cease circulation is seen as a step towards addressing these concerns and ensuring that educational resources align with current educational standards and societal values. The implications of this directive could affect how educational content is disseminated across digital channels, impacting students and educators alike. As the debate continues, education officials are expected to reassess the curriculum and its delivery methods, ensuring that they meet the diverse needs of students across the country.
