The Brahmin Mahasangh has demanded action against authorities for omitting freedom fighter Sukhdev’s name in a lesson on India’s freedom struggle in Class 8 Bal Bharti textbook used in the Marathi medium schools in Maharashtra. The organisation claimed that the textbook did not print Sukhdev's name along with Bhagat Singh and Rajguru.

The text printed in the textbook says Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Qurban Hussain were martyred for the country.
