"I think it is incomplete": Ram Mandir chief priest on NCERT's omission of events in Ayodhya movement
Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, Satyendra Das Maharaj, was dissatisfied with the omission of important events of the Ayodhya movement in the newly revised Class 12 Political Science textbook of the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) saying that there are several «shortcomings» in its presentation and it is «incomplete» in its narration.
«There are some shortcomings in the NCERT textbook about the Babri Masjid issue. They do not mention how the three-domed structure was removed on December 6, 1992, they are only starting to narrate the issue from November 9, 2019, when the Ayodhya verdict was given,» Satyendra Das Maharaj said speaking to ANI.
Notably, NCERT left Babri Masjid out, referring to it only as a «three-dome structure» in its revised Class 12th Political Science textbook. The revision pertains to Chapter 8, 'Recent Developments in Indian Politics'.
The Chief Priest pointed out that the narration of the Ayodhya movement starts only from November 9, 2019 when the Supreme Court gave its landmark verdict on the historic case and does not give details about the events on December 6, 1992 (when the Babri Masjid was demolished) or December 22, 1949 when Lord Ram Lalla appeared at the mosque premises.
The Chief Priest said that if such crucial events are not mentioned in the textbook then children cannot get a minimum understanding of the Ayodhya movement.
«If they (NCERT) do not mention how on December 22, 1949, Ram Lalla appeared there and His puja started, how can anyone get a minimum
