SEVERAL LEADERS OF I. N. D. I. A CRITICIZE THE DECISION TO CHANGE INDIA TO BHARAT IN NCERT TEXTBOOKS SAYING THEY ARE AFRAID ON THEM !
After the NCERT recommending to the Union Government its proposal to change India in all its text books to Bharat, the anti BJP opposition leaders have come down heavily and strongly on the ruling party government accusing the saffron party and its leaders having lost their balance of mind.
The chief minister of West Bengal Mamta Bannerjee while strongly criticizing the BJP leaders and the central political dispensation said that they have lost their balance of mind and changing entire history. She questioned how can they change the history but they are doing it unilaterally. The entire education syllabus is being tilted without bringing them ( opposition) into confidence. Now they have taken a decision to eradicate “India” from all the text books of the country of NCERT and replace it by Bharat.
Criticizing the BJP led NDA government, the West Bengal CM said that when they implemented the Goods and Services tax we thought that there would be uniformity in tax structure but now the central government is not returning them their share from tax collection.
The Shiv Sena leader and Rajya Sabha MP Priyanka Chaturvedi too has strongly criticized the BJP government for changing India to Bharat in all the text books of NCERT saying that they are so badly afraid of our new political conglomeration of I. N. D. I. A that they are changing India to Bharat whereas the fact remains that the architect of the Constitution Dr. B. R. Ambedkar has himself with the respected members of constituent assembly have clearly mentioned INDIA that is Bharat in the Constitution.
Therefore the present government and the BJP leaders are devaluing and degrading our constitutional maker Dr. B. R. Ambedkar by abolishing INDIA from all NCERT text books. She asked how does it matter whether it’s India, Bharat aur Hindustan ?
The Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejrival while condemning this decision of the ruling party in strongest possible words said that this government is so badly afraid of the new anti BJP alliance ” INDIA”, that it has now started taking cheap decisions like changing INDIA to Bharat despite the hard fact that the Constitution clearly writes INDIA, THAT IS BHARAT.
The senior leader of Shiv Sena, Sanjay Raut said that since the BJP led NDA is badly afraid of the widespread influence of I. N. D. I. A. and possibility of it ( BJP led NDA) losing in the general elections of 2024 it is baffled and want to replace INDIA word not only from all the text books of NCERT but from everywhere.
