CNN-IBN reports: "Japan dropped a nuclear bomb on US during World War 2", "Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated on October 30, 1948" -- these are just two of the many factual errors in textbooks published by the Gujarat government for state-run schools.

This is not where these textbooks, meant for Classes 6 to 8 and published by Gujarat Council of Educational Research and Training (GCERT), stop. They go on to say, "Bal Gangadhar Tilak brought out an English newspaper called the Marathi", "Proportion of poisonous gas CO3 has increased due to cutting of trees" and "The neighbouring Pakistan is an Islamic Islamabad Nation".
