ITANAGAR: A lawmaker from Arunachal Pradesh has urged the Centre to include Northeast chapters in CBSE and other state boards.

Pasighat MLA Ninong Ering, in a letter to Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Education Minister R P Nishank on Sunday, requested them to include North East India in CBSE and other state boards' syllabus.

In his letter, Ering wrote, "Inclusion of North East India in CBSE and other state boards which could lead to the elimination of frequent cases of racial discrimination against us. The world needs to know about us and learn about our history, geography, culture and other aspects".

Ering informed about Saturday's Twitter storm on the same demand.

"These demands are in tune with key recommendations made by Bezbaruah Committee Report and also a private member bill introduced by him in 2017 for inclusion of North East as a compulsory subject in CBSE syllabus," the letter added.
