School books with communal content introduced during the previous BJP rule in Rajasthan will be revised and controversial chapters removed from them. The move has been recommended to the Board of Secondary Education by the Garg committee appointed by the ruling Congress government early this year, a board official said. Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has directed the authorities concerned to remove the controversial portions from the books as suggested by the Garg committee, state Education minister Master Bhanwar Lal said.
Headed by Rajasthan University Professor Subhash Garg, the committee has recently submitted a report to the Board of Secondary Education in Ajmer underlining the "objectionable content in several chapters in books being taught in 9th, 10th, 11th and 12 classes in the state", the board secretary M R Sharma said.
