AGARTALA, June 28 (TIWN): At last BJP noticed the TBSE Class-9 History books where the chapters are filled with all foreign Communist revolutionaries and the syllabus is dedicated for Lenin and Hitler.

BJP called media with an issue and blamed the CPI-M Govt. for using political agenda in Education system and manufacturing books as tools for political campaigns.

Addressing the press meet BJP Spokesperson Prasenjit Chakraborty told media that, “TBSE has published Class-9 history books with Parul Prakashani and these books have already been distributed to various schools”.

“But those books which are providing in various schools and students are gathering knowledge out of these books,---unfortunately the books have nothing except Lenin and French revolution and a chapter with Hitler’s biography’.

‘Whereas the first chapter is named as French Revolution (1789), the second chapter is for, ‘Colonial Law’, the 3rd Chapter is for ‘History and Sports’, the 4th Chapter- “Russian Revolution and its affect”, Nazism and the emerge of Hitler’, and the 5thChapter is—New agricultural law in England’, said Chakraborty. He further showed the book to media for evidence.

‘Isn’t there a single space where Indian Freedom fighters could took place in TBSE history book?”, he added.

‘Why CPI-M has chosen Lenin instead of any Freedom fighter from Indian History  who could occupy the front page’?

‘TBSE in the name of study is brain washing the children and shaping them to become more CPI-M supporters/ lovers rather than a nationalist’, he added. Chakraborty further said, ‘CPI-M is playing with the knowledge of the students by violating the syllabus.

Tripura Chief Minister Manik Sarkar during 34rth book fair inauguration on February 14 said that “People are forgetting the real history, and the BJP Govt’s new addition of history is polluting the mind of the students in schools”. During Manik Sarkar’s speech Bangladeshi artist Hashem Khan was also present, which brought huge embarrassment for the country. CM on that day also blamed Modi Govt. for polluting the syllabus for the sake of political purpose and to attract more students towards RSS, but what now the CM will say?

“What Manik Sarkar will say now when many national medias are alleging Manik led TBSE which omitted the history of Indian freedom fighters and replace them with French revolution history?”, Chakraborty said.

The book also has pages devoted to Nazism and the rise of Adolf Hitler besides information on the birth of cricket in England, and Mahatma Gandhi’s whole dedication for the country was limited to his comments over cricket.

Thus the opposition BJP is alleging that Tripura's Left Front government has removed Indian history from Class 9 textbooks altogether. The textbooks have chapters dedicated to Russian and French revolutions, as well as the birth of cricket in England, Nazism and Adolf Hitler.
