India’s education: A re-write or re-‘right’?

We The People: From stem cell science in the Mahabharata to Lord Ram’s Pushpak Viman as the first aeroplane – are these flight of fancy or “Indianisation” of education? Are Dinanath Batra’s books equating mythology with science? And where is the middle space between de-colonising and saffronising education? Dinanath Batra joins the debate with writer and columnist Pushpesh Pant, AAP leader and former UGC member Yogendra Yadav, scientist Gauhar Raza, BJP spokesperson Nalin Kohli, professor of History at JNU Aditya Mukherjee, Kamal Sandesh executive editor Shiv Shakti Bakshi and professor of education at IGNOU Chandra B Sharma.
