PESHAWAR:
The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) Text Book Board has prepared and distributed revised textbooks for the upcoming academic year after coalition partners PTI and JI agreed to syllabus changes after months of intense deliberations.
JI had raised certain objections over the curriculum approved in 2006. The religious party argued “Islamic chapters” had been removed. It also asked that “objectionable” material be removed and 18 Quranic verses be added to the grade nine chemistry textbook.
The party had also recommended that first graders use the greeting Assalam-o-Alaikum instead of Good Morning at schools.
In addition, the JI had expressed reservations over images in grade four science textbooks, saying girls were shown in the material without their heads covered. The party also demanded that chapters on Raja Dahir and Ranjit Singh be excluded from the grade eight Pakistan Studies syllabus.
