Srinagar, Apr 27 (KNS): Jammu and Kashmir School Education Department on Saturday said neither JKBOSE nor NCERT have published any text book wherein any religious figure was disrespected.
A statement in this regard said, “There is some objectionable content page from a book being circulated on social media. As verified, from the textbooks prescribed and developed by JKBOSE, there is no such content in JKBOSE textbooks. Moreover, no book having such content has been developed by NCERT, nor has it been prescribed in any of JK schools”.
The statement added, “We are verifying the source of this video so that the law enforcement authorities can take strict action”.
Notably several religious organizations had earlier demanded NCERT to remove such chapters and statements from textbooks.(KNS)
