CHITRADURGA, SEPT. 30. The Chitradurga district unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party has strongly condemned the omission of the names of freedom fighters Chandrashekar Azad, Veer Savarkar, and Bhagat Singh from primary and secondary school textbooks in the State. The Congress-led Government was trying to distort history, N.E. Nagaraj, the district secretary of the BJP, said in a press release here on Thursday. He alleged that the freedom fighters symbolised great values such as sacrifice and love for the nation. They were role models for the younger generation. However, the Congress party was attempting to "inject wrong things about Indian history" in the textbooks, he charged. He urged the Government to rectify such mistakes immediately.
