It is the height of their (BJP) distortion to do away with the lesson on martyr Bhagat Singh and include RSS founder K.B. Hedgewar's lesson," he said.Meanwhile, the Public Instruction Department has clarified that the lesson on freedom fighter Bhagat Singh in the prose section has not been removed. Earlier, there were rumours that the deletion of Bhagat Singh's chapter had stirred a controversy in the state.The clarification came after some student organisations alleged that to accommodate RSS founder K.B. Hedgewar, the department had dropped a lesson on Bhagat Singh.The Text Revision Committee has been formed by the BJP with writer Rohit Chakratheertha as its head to review sensitive issues in textbooks.The committee has reviewed the social science text books of Class 6 and Class 10, and Kannada textbooks of 1st to 10th standard.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
