NCERT to restore original 'Dancing Girl' image in textbooks
Iconic bronze figurine of Mohenjo-daro has its bare torso covered in the latest NCERT arts textbook for Class 9; unlike the altered image, the Dancing Girl in a Class 6 textbook appears in a form closer to the original bronze sculpture
The NCERT has announced plans to revert the depiction of the 'Dancing Girl' in school textbooks to its original form. The iconic bronze sculpture from Mohenjo-daro was recently shown with a covered torso in a Class 9 textbook. In contrast, the Class 6 textbook still features a version closer to the original sculpture. The decision comes after public criticism regarding the altered image. The 'Dancing Girl' is a significant artifact from the Indus Valley Civilization. The move aims to provide students with an accurate representation of historical artifacts. The change reflects a response to concerns about cultural accuracy in educational materials. The original image is considered more authentic and historically significant.
Restoring the original image ensures students receive accurate historical and cultural education.
