Karnataka Government To Revise Textbooks
It is mentioned the textbook revision committee is considering adding chapters about Karkota Dynasty from Kashmir and Ahom Dynasty from Assam.
The committee also has decided to do away with content which deems as glorification of Tipu Sultan. Reportedly, sentences containing words like Tiger of Mysuru or Freedom Fighter will be removed.
Lessons on Babar and Tughlaq will also come under scrutiny during textbook revision. A short chapter on Mughals will be part of the textbook.
Furthermore, the committee has decided to remove the introduction part of the Emergence of New Religion-Buddhism and Jainism chapter.
