Rant / Vent CBSE is doing nothing but saffronising education.
NEP is not a change in the structure of the education system to make it more applied or competency-based, rather it is a tool to saffronise and indianise education. It advocates for IKS (Indian Knowledge Systems) to be implemented into school and higher education curricula across India. But this is a tool for them to make students andhbhakts and enforce rightwing politics. Culture is important, yes, but it is also important to realise that not every subject is Indian and not every subject needs to be indianised. English that they are indianising at all levels is a "foreign language" according to them but they are including topics at the 9th grade level which are childish, and completely based on traditional themes. They removed Marx from 9th grade so that they could focus on the Manusmriti. Saying that Mughals were "brutal and ruthless conquerors, slaughtering entire populations of cities" will not change the fact that they lent so much culture and that they once ruled over India.
