Omission of chapter on Sufi saint in J&K textbook sparks row
Hindustan Times Jammu|December 18, 2024
The apparent omission of a chapter about Kashmir's revered Sufi saint in the Class 9 text book by J&K school education department has triggered a row with former mayor and deputy mayor of Srinagar targeting the Omar Abdullah led National Conference government for its claims of protecting the region's identity.

SRINAGAR:

Former Srinagar mayor Junaid Azim Mattu took to Twitter to share a picture of the English text book from tulip series with previous and fresh version (revised Dec 2023) of contents page published by J&K state board of school education (JKBOSE).

The fresh prose section of the book reveals only six chapters, instead of seven earlier. The earlier version of the book contained a chapter on Sheikh Noor-ud-Din Wali (R.A), a prominent Sufi saint of the valley, which the new version doesn't reflect.
