| [DAWN] The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa ... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... government has begun restoring school and college curriculum by including the lessons deleted by the previous government. The relevant officials said during the last government, lessons tending to create a sense of nationalism and those with positive impact of Islamic history and culture were deleted from textbooks. Provincial information minister Mushtaq Ghani told Dawn that the current textbooks were printed by the previous government and that the current government learned about them only after they're introduced in schools and colleges. "The present government has restored almost 90 per cent of the lessons regarding Islam, ideology and nationalism with more details in textbooks," he said. The minister said next year, the students would be taught a changed curriculum. Different governments have changed the contents of textbooks in line with their policies. |
