To give students a more modern and interesting learning experience, NCERT has substantially revised the Economics textbooks in compliance with the National Education Policy (NEP) in 2020. According to NEP 2020, “the reduction in the material will help in increased curriculum flexibility and the renewed emphasis on productivity rather than rote learning.” The new curriculum has been slimmed down to lessen the student’s strain and promote experiential learning.

The NCERT Economics textbooks will be available in at least 22 languages, mentioned in the eighth schedule of the Constitution, including Hindi, English, Bengali, Assamese, Gujarati, Kannada, Sanskrit, Punjabi, Sindhi, Manipuri, Urdu, Malayalam, Odiya, and Kashmiri, among others.

What is the basis of Content Rationalisation?
According to Union Minister of State for Education Annapurna Devi, “Overlapping with similar content included in other subject areas in the same class; similar content included in the lower or higher class in the same subject; difficulty level; content, which is easily accessible to children and does not require much intervention from the teachers and can be learned through self-learning or peer learning; content, which is not relevant in the present context or outdated and taking care of the learning outcomes already developed across the classes, are among the criteria adopted for rationalization of the content load.” Source – NCERT textbooks rationalised to compensate for Covid-19 time loss: Education ministry
