Rajasthan Primary Curriculum Overhaul
Rajasthan introduces cultural and heritage content in primarytextbooks—stories of warriors, local festivals, and environmental lessons
Heritage Meets Education
From July 1, Rajasthan will roll out a revamped curriculum for classes 1–5 under NEP 2020, blending cultural, historical, and environmental themes. These textbooks will feature national heroes like Maharana Pratap and Subhash Chandra Bose, alongside lessons on the Chandrayaan mission and traditions like the Maha Kumbh.
Practical, Multilingual Approach
Beyond stories, students will engage in activity–based modules learning about municipal bodies, road safety, and ecological sacrifice like the Khejarli Balidan. The textbooks will use local languages, supplemented with dialect dictionaries, aiming at immersive learning
Intent and Impact
Officials highlight this as a move to make education “child–friendly” and relevant. Featuring mother‑tongue instruction and hands‑on content seeks to deepen students’
connection to their roots and modern India’s achievements
