Talking about Kumar, I also recall the contribution of magazines like Science Today and Science Age (that market seems wiped out completely) in popularising the scientific discipline.vispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10558386659834486740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512076518668010629.post-29853671366596473022012-06-07T08:18:41.353+05:302012-06-07T08:18:41.353+05:30@હા મુરજીભાઇ. પંદર વર્ષ ભણ્યા પછી જે ન થયું તે,વિજ...@હા મુરજીભાઇ. પંદર વર્ષ ભણ્યા પછી જે ન થયું તે,વિજ્ઞાનમાં રસ અને થોડીઘણી સમજણ પડવાનું કામ 'સ્કોપ' અને 'સફારી' થકી થયું છે.U-said-ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13736911493607935034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512076518668010629.post-46483775778534165562012-06-05T13:52:18.235+05:302012-06-05T13:52:18.235+05:30'એનસીઇઆરટીનાં ચર્ચાસ્પદ પુસ્તકોમાં કાર્ટૂન મૂક...'એનસીઇઆરટીનાં ચર્ચાસ્પદ પુસ્તકોમાં કાર્ટૂન મૂકવાનો મુખ્ય આશય પુસ્તકને રસાળ અને હળવાશભર્યું બનાવવાનો હતો.' <br /><br />no, urvish. the intention was quite different. and that was to belittle dr ambedkar. and that too for no fault of the man who was all serious and was almost single-handedly labouring on the draft in the absence of the active co-operation from the rest of the drafting committee members. <br /><br />in a chapter on constitution, what could be of major importance to the students? <br /><br />its content like preamble, different articles on citizenship, fundamental rights and fundamental duties, directive principles of state policy, parliament and state legislature, functions of high court and governor, elections, different annextures et al or <br />this cartoon of little relevance on Ambedkar and Nehru? any sane educator will agree that these things are more important than teaching the students through a cartoon that our constitution was drafted by dr Ambedkar at a snail-speed and Nehru had to lash him for speedy disposal. <br /><br />those who argue in the name of freedom of expression and blame in the name of intolerance of the cartoonist's satiric art are woefully wrong, for here there is altogether a different issue : nobody denies the right of expression of the artist, but they deny the cartoon's relevance in a chapter that is supposed to primarily raise awareness of the students on constitution's salient features. <br /><br />inserting a misleading and therefore provocative cartoon like this in a textbook speaks of its bad motive. yogendra and suhas, otherwise eminent educators, must confess of their biggest oversight.NEERAV PATELhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18005205448563209812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512076518668010629.post-17932677730845305562012-06-05T10:20:43.062+05:302012-06-05T10:20:43.062+05:30Really good analysis, as usual.
