Minister for Education B.C. Nagesh has alleged that Congress leaders’ allegations on the revision of textbooks were baseless and intended to mislead the public.
Speaking to presspersons in Shivamogga on Wednesday he said the Congress initially said the lessons on Bhagat Singh and Narayana Guru had been removed. But when the textbooks were released it came out that their allegation was baseless. Then again, they raised the issue of Basavanna. “On Basavanna, we have retained what the previous committee had drafted. As they are jobless, they are raising an issue every day to mislead the public”, he said.
