NCERT has significantly updated the 2023-24 syllabus pattern in accordance with the National Education Policy (NEP) in 2020 to provide students with a more contemporary and engaging learning experience. “The reduction in the material will help in increased curriculum flexibility and the renewed emphasis on productivity rather than rote learning,” claims NEP 2020. The new curriculum has been designed to ease the workload and pressure on the students and promote more practical and experiential learning. Source – NEP Final
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and can be learned through self-learning or peer learning; content, which is not relevant in the present context or outdated and taking care of the learning outcomes already developed across the classes, are among the criteria adopted for rationalization of the content load.”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
