Child rights protection commission sends notice to MP education dept over controversial Class 7 textbook chapter -Mohit Sharma

-IndiaToday.in

NCPCR has issued a notice to Principal Secretary education Madhya Pradesh over a controversial chapter in a class 7 textbook.

The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has issued a notice to Principal Secretary education Madhya Pradesh over a chapter in class 7 books, for promoting communal disharmony.

As per the notice, the commission has pointed out how an example in the textbook could very well not just traumatise the children but also hamper communal peace in the state.

The chapter in question talks about how a Muslim couple was allegedly not given a house on rent and rather given excuses despite them being economically well off.

The commission has argued that while giving such examples starting any religion is equivalent to the exploitation of minor school-going children.

The commission has further asked the education department to remove the chapter with immediate effect. It has also sought action and asked for a report within 7 days. A copy of the letter has also been sent to NCERT.
