Its main objective is to improve the field of education and provide quality education to the students. NCERT includes important ideas and messages in textbooks, which help students in their academic development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Textbooks include the Preamble of the Constitution, National Anthem, and quotes from great personalities, which introduce students to the culture and values \u200b\u200bof the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Statement_of_Minister_of_State_for_Education\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Statement of Minister of State for Education<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minister of State for Education Jayant Chaudhary provided clarity in the matter, saying, &#8220;NCERT has not removed any specific messages from the textbooks.

These messages not only increase the knowledge of students but also make them aware of their duties and responsibilities towards the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ideas of Mahatma Gandhi, such as truth and non-violence, provide moral education to students and inspire them to become a better citizen.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NCERTs_responsibility\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NCERT&#8217;s responsibility<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ncert.nic.in\/?utm_source=saralstudy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">NCERT<\/a> should review the content of the textbooks and ensure that the ideas and messages contained in it are relevant and useful to the students.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Impact_on_education_system\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Impact on education system<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The retention of messages in textbooks is important for the education system. If students will not get the right information, it can affect their education.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The education department should ensure that the content included in the textbooks is correct and authentic.

Samajwadi Party leader Ramji Lal Suman said, &#8220;If NCERT has really removed the Preamble of the Constitution and Gandhi&#8217;s messages, then it is a serious matter. It will be a wrong message for the students.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The opposition also said that such changes in the education system can have a negative impact on the thinking and understanding of students.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance_of_content_in_textbooks\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Importance of content in textbooks<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The importance of content included in textbooks is not only from the academic point of view but also from the moral and social point of view.
