Class 8 NCERT chapter about ‘corruption in Judiciary’ is incomplete, not accurate and possibly targeting the judiciary: Abhishek Sanghvi
Responding to a question from the audience about the recent Supreme Court direction expressing concerns over Class 8 NCERT, a chapter concerning “corruption in Judiciary”, Mr. Singhvi said the chapter is incomplete, not accurate and possibly targeting the judiciary.
“There were two issues, and I want to focus on when it is the whole tight fire, and that is the selectivity of this two-page chapter.”
“Suddenly, out of the blue, there were two pages on judicial matters. It doesn’t seem to be institutional about corruption, which is a bureaucratic political class and the political states.”
And [it’s] plug-out-of-context, it could be an agenda of contact to give and break the integrity and control, he said.
“And definitely, the selectivity is in exclusion. And you could get class 8 students across the country; that is one sector of the table on the left side, which is for the corruption problems, the only people talking about it,” he said.
“Ultimately, we all, which has defended liberty, private rights, [is] a bulwark against government excess. That’s not much. And that is not mentioned, or the institution is made a possible target,” he added.
Mr. Singhvi mentioned he is a counsel in the case.
