Students Will Be Taught ‘Corrected’ Version Of Indian History From Vasant Panchami: Dharmendra Pradhan
Sasaram: According to the National Education Policy (NEP), beginning on January 26 with Vasant Panchami, students all over the nation will be taught the “corrected” version of Indian history, Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan announced on Tuesday. Speaking at a programme put on by the Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) and the Akhil Bharatiya Itihas Sankalan Yojana, an organisation affiliated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the minister said that books are being republished with new compositions and that these books will clarify India to the rest of the world.
“In accordance with the National Education Policy, starting on January 26 in honour of Vasant Panchami, students all around the nation will be taught a proper account of Indian history. We will have a lot of opportunities thanks to the NEP. In the NEP, mother tongue has been given precedence. It is useless to impart education without prioritising the mother tongue “said he. “The ancient culture and civilization of India needs to be seen from a new, global viewpoint in the twenty-first century. Republished books containing fresh works are common. These works will clarify India’s position in the eyes of the world. These novels will likewise be available digitally “Added he.
According to Mr. Pradhan, India has a fantastic opportunity to showcase its history to the rest of the world while holding the G20 presidency. He stated, “We must make G20 a celebration as well as a chance to display the world India’s art, culture, and civilisation.” The Gopal Narayan Singh University in Jamuhar, Bihar’s Sasaram district, hosted the event. Numerous academics, including Vice-Chancellor Satyaprakash Bansal of the Central University of Himachal Pradesh, attended.
