Gita to be introduced in Haryana Schools
- 5 years ago
The Gita would be taught in Haryana schools from the next academic session from class V to XII.
Education minister Ram Bilas Sharma made the announcement on Monday while terming the Gita "supreme source of culture and human values in society''.
Sharma said the scripture is not only about dialogues between Arjuna and Krishna but is accepted worldwide as a supreme source of knowledge. "A committee of educationists would decide on the inclusion of specific shlokas of the Gita in various standards. We are working on it to ensure that it is included from the next academic session," Sharma said.
Panjab University sociologist Manjeet Singh said the move was against the constitutional spirit.
