The new curriculum of the first year of junior college (Class XI) of the state board, developed by Balbharati has again come under the scanner after a Pune based retired professor pointed out mistakes in the 'Biology' textbook.
Dr Hemlata Sane, a 79-year- old Botany professor has written a letter to the state bureau of textbook - Balbharati, regarding the mistakes. Dr Sane has claimed that the information given in the class XI Biology textbook is not only grammatically incorrect but also has several factual errors.
"There are many mistakes which I happened to read just out of curiosity. I have a complete report of 35-pages which I submitted to Balbharati," said Dr Sane.
