New NCERT Social Science text replaces European revolutions with resistance movements in medieval India
The latest Class‑9 NCERT Social Science textbook has removed references to the French and Russian revolutions, replacing them with accounts of medieval Indian resistance movements. The new edition focuses on foreign invasions driven by India's wealth and highlights armed struggles by Sikhs, Jats, Rajputs and Ahoms. The change reflects a shift toward a more India‑centric historical narrative.
