BJP rebels may have called Modi a ‘Hitler’ during an anti-Modi protest, but Germany’s infamous dictator continues to be glorified in social science textbooks printed by the Gujarat State Board of School Textbooks.
Last year, a city-based NGO Prashant filed a petition demanding withdrawal of the Class IX textbook representing Adolf Hitler as a nationalist. Israel’s Councilor General David Zohar Zoshine had also visited Ahmedabad, met state education secretary P Pernneerveel and demanded withdrawal of the text.
