NCERT committee has recommended writing ‘Bharat’ instead of ‘India‘ in all school textbooks
The panel revising the NCERT textbooks has recommended that ‘Bharat’ be used instead of ‘India’ in textbooks from Class 5 to Class 12. The name India first appeared officially when the government addressed the G20 invitation hosted by the President as ‘Presidential’. ‘India’ instead of ‘President of India’.
Later, during the summit in New Delhi, ‘Bharat’ was written instead of India on the nameplate of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The NCERT panel has also recommended the inclusion of ‘Classical History’ instead of ‘Ancient History’ in textbooks.
