Glad to note. Given the aggressive schedule, suspect changes are in math+science curriculum, & NOT in history where bigotry, propaganda & distortion are fortified by special interests. Who are the scholars entrusted with history corrections? @HRDMinistry @DrRPNishank , @PMOIndia https://twitter.com/htTweets/status/1275973910886899713
2. If social studies texts are also not merely "framework"-revised, but the *content* also corrected, then I strongly recommend Prof. Meenakshi Jain to be on the panel.
Also @Aabhas24 & @TIinExile with strength in fact-checking are needed.

3. Social studies texts have destructive, toxic content, Std.6-12. Cannot expect old panel at NCERT to discard their ideological, spurious content.
Strongly need tenacious fact-checkers like @Aabhas24 and @TIinExile on the revision panel.

4. This is 2020: ideological leanings of committee members is clear.
Chairman of Social Studies cmte should ensure 50-50 panel of "old ideological" members and new crop of Indic researchers, so that "old school" does not enforce its "majoritarianism" on Indic researchers.
