To ease the burden on the students, NCERT reduced its syllabus by half

On Wednesday, Union minister Prakash Javadekar announced that the government has decided to reduce the NCERT syllabus by half as students were unable to find the time for any other activities. "There is a huge load of books and information, and students have no time. There is no time for physical education, value education and life skills. So, we decided to halve the portion (syllabus). There is no need to teach them everything. Students should learn principles and rest of the knowledge they can gain later," Javadekar said. Mr Javadekar was present at an event 10th foundation day of the Foundation for Restoration of National Values (FRNV), where he said that the ministry had received 37000 suggestions from parents, teachers and educationists to reduce the burden of studies on the students. He further said that the NCERT syllabus was so cramped that the government has decided to reduce it by half. The minister further said that the good values can be given to children only at home and suggested training for the parents in this regard. He also praised the efforts of the FRNV to integrate value based education in the schools and assured that HRD ministry will work together as a partner in this initiative.
