Vij said stories like Operation Sindoor, highlighting bravery and strikes on terror hideouts, should be introduced to students early in school.
NEW DELHI: Haryana's Energy and Transport Minister Anil Vij welcomed NCERT's decision to introduce a special module on Operation Sindoor for classes 3-12. "The initiative taken by NCERT to include India's tales of valour in the school curriculum is a good and commendable step," Vij said in Ambala Cantt on Sunday.
"Stories like Operation Sindoor , where we showed Pakistan its place, and how we destroyed terrorist hideouts, should be taught to our students in schools," he told reporters. Vij said students should be introduced to such "stories of bravery and heroism right from the beginning of their schooling ".
Twenty-six men were gunned down in front of their family members in a deadly terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22. India retaliated by targeting terror sites in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Pakistan under Operation Sindoor, leading to a four-day conflict between the two countries.
