Ramayana likely to be part of NCERT social science textbooks

A high-level panel from the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) in India has recommended that epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata be taught in schools as part of the history curriculum. The panel also proposed that the Preamble of the Constitution be written on the walls of classrooms in vernacular languages. Additionally, the panel suggested the inclusion of the Indian knowledge system, the Vedas, and Ayurveda in textbooks. The recommendations are part of the final position paper on social sciences and have yet to receive final approval from NCERT.
