The Supreme Court has imposed a complete and absolute ban on accessing the NCERT’s Social Science book having chapter on ‘judiciary corruption’. The court has issued show cause notice to secretary, department of school education and NCERT director Dinesh Prasad Saklani.
The Centre has informed the Supreme Court today that people who are involved in drafting chapters on ‘judiciary corruption’ will not work with UGC or any ministry. The centre has also tendered an unconditional apology as Solicitor General Tushar Mehta said, “In a suo motu case, we tender an unconditional apology.” Meanwhile, Chief Justice Surya Kant shot back saying, “our friends in the media have sent this notice. There’s not a single word of apology in it.”
When SG Mehta said that 32 books had been sold but now it was withdrawn, CJI remarked that this was a deliberate move. “The entire teaching community would be told that the Indian judiciary is corrupt and cases are pending… then students, and then parents. This is a deep conspiracy,” said CJI.
