Days after the Central Board of Secondary Education cut off chapters from class 11 and 12 political science syllabus, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday renamed the board as Central Board of Suppressing Education.

Gandhi tweeted an image that shows a shredding machine cutting topics like Democracy and Diversity, Impact of Globalisation on Agriculture, Non-aligned Movement, The Mughal Court, Industrial Revolution, and Poems of Faiz. Sharing the image, the Congress leader wrote Rashtriya Shiksha Shredder. The shredder also put light on issues like employment, communal harmony, and institutions in India.

Have a look at Rahul Gandhi’s tweet:

Recently, CBSE dropped chapters on the Cold War era, the Non-Alignment Movement, the rise of Islamic empires in Afro-Asian territories, the chronicles of Mughal courts, and the industrial revolution from the class 11 and 12 political science syllabus.

Excerpts from the translations of two Urdu poems by Faiz Ahmed Faiz have also been cut off from the section Religion, Communalism and Politics-Communalism, Secular State. The development triggered debates on social media following which the officials said that the elimination was part of the syllabus rationalisation process and the decision was taken in line with NCERT recommendations.

A similar controversy took place in 2020 when the CBSE said that it would remove chapters on federalism, demonetisation, citizenship, secularism, and nationalism from the Class 11 political science textbook. The board said that these topics would not be considered while assessing students, however, if schools want to teach these topics, they could.

These topics were then restored in the 2021-2022 academic session and are still part of the syllabus.
