Speaking on this, NCPCR chairperson Priyank Kanoongo said, “This is a violation of the Right to Education Act that says that schools can’t teach such things as are not defined by the National Curriculum Framework. NCPCR knows that such books are not published or cleared by NCERT etc. Strict action must be taken against the school. We are issuing notice to the district magistrate to immediately look into it and submit a report to NCPCR.”
NCPCR had earlier found two illegally constructed ‘mazaars’ built on government land inside a school premises in Madhya Pradesh’s Vidisha district and had recommended that “the unlawful structures are removed from the premises”.
The NCPCR surveyed the CM Rise School of Kurwai in Vidisha district after taking suo-moto cognizance of a report about presence of mazaar-like structure in the school.
