SC stay on syllabi

NEW DELHI, MARCH 1. The Supreme Court today stayed the implementation of the controversial National Curriculum Framework for Secondary Education (NCFSE) termed by many educationists an attempt to ``saffronise'' school syllabi.

The interim order was passed by the court on a PIL filed by Aruna Roy, B. G. Verghese and Meena Radhakrishna Tyabji alleging that an important decision to change school syllabi was taken without consulting the Central Advisory Board on Education (CABE), the apex body on education policy.
