The University Grants Commission (UGC) chief, M. Jagadesh Kumar, has defended the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) following criticisms of frequent revisions to school textbooks. A letter to NCERT Director D.P. Saklani calling for the removal of the signatories’ names from textbooks prompted the response. Kumar argued that these revisions are a common occurrence, with the current changes merely temporary. A new set of textbooks are currently in development based on the recently-launched National Curriculum Framework for School Education. However, some academics have expressed concern regarding the removal of history chapters from school textbooks.
