M.P. to Include a Chapter on Gita in School Curriculum
Indore, July 17, 2013: The BJP government in Madhya Pradesh has set off a fresh controversy with its decision to include chapters from Bhagwad Gita in school curriculum, drawing accusations of saffronisation of education from the Congress. A notification published in the State gazette earlier this month said one chapter related to the holy book would be included in the ‘Hindi special’ subject for classes IX to XII from the academic session 2013-14.
