From the next academic session, the textbooks of the Rajasthan board will feature the achievements achieved by India under the leadership of former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee, said Education Minister Vasudev Devnani. The Minister has written regarding the same to the Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education-Ajmer so that the work can be started.
“Major transformation and achievements during the tenure of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee will be highlighted in school textbooks. I have given the directions to the Board to initiate the process to get the things done,” Devnani told PTI.
“Students should know about his great and influential leadership during Kargil war, nuclear tests in Pokhran in Jaisalmer and unforgettable contribution to the country through programs like the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana among others which took the country on the path of development,” he said.
The directions regarding the same were given on August 18 and an expert committee will be set up to take the task.
