The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has removed the chapters on Mughal Empire from Class 12th History books. Students pursuing Class 12 from CBSE schools will no longer study the history of the Mughal courts. Since UP Board also follows CBSE 12th syllabus, Uttar Pradesh has also rationalized the Class 12th History syllabus.
The NCERT has removed the chapters and topics related to ‘Kings and Chronicles; the Mughal Courts (C. 16th and 17th centuries)’ from the history book ‘Themes of Indian History-Part II’ under the revised syllabus of Class 12 which will be implemented from the academic session 2023-24.
