Скачать или смотреть Supreme Court Bans Class 8 NCERT Book | Judiciary Chapter Controversy Explained | NEXT IAS

In this video, we discuss the Supreme Court’s decision to ban the circulation of the Class 8 NCERT Social Science textbook Exploring Society: India and Beyond (Volume 2) over a chapter on corruption and judiciary. The Court termed the content a serious attack on judicial integrity and ordered copies to be seized, warning against online circulation. We analyze what the chapter stated—judicial corruption concerns, case pendency, judge shortages, and infrastructure gaps—and why it triggered a national debate. The Centre and NCERT issued an apology, calling the inclusion unintentional and promising stricter review. We also examine the larger constitutional questions: academic critique vs contempt, transparency vs public trust, and institutional respect in a democracy. Highly relevant for polity and current affairs preparation.
