NCERT updates Class 8 History textbook regarding Partition
The NCERT has updated the History section of its Class 8 Social Science textbook. The new version notes that the partition proposal faced significant resistance, even from the Indian National Congress, and mentions that the necessity of accepting the plan is still a subject of debate. Additionally, the text has removed a reference regarding the perceived helplessness of Congress leaders during the communal riots triggered by the partition. These changes were reportedly implemented following remarks made by the Supreme Court.
