Namaste
I appears per an article dated in December of last year, that introducing the Bhagavad Gita into the Karnataka school curricula is in consideration after withdrawing such currucula after facing stiff opposition from minority religious communities.
Actually, I am sort of confused as to the status of this across India, I have been told another state (UP) has the Gita as part of public education cirriculum. Anyone have the full story on this?
Chief Minister of Karnataka said, in support of such initiative, "... the Gita is not confined to one religion. It has more to do with human values... "
What is the status of BG in cirriculum of public schools, or for that matter any other Hindu scripture in 2014?
Om Namah Sivaya
