Maharashtra's New CBSE-Based Textbooks Contain Errors; Corrections Planned
Maharashtra's newly introduced CBSE-based textbooks for classes 2, 3, 4, and 6 have been found to contain multiple errors, including the incorrect death date of mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan as April 27, 1920, instead of April 26, 1920. Other mistakes include inaccurate measurement units and historical inaccuracies regarding Jyotiba and Savitribai Phule's girls' school. Balbharati, the state textbook bureau, acknowledged these errors and assured corrections in the next editions, with plans to provide updates via QR-coded videos.
