A political row erupted on Saturday over an NCERT module holding Congress responsible for Partition, with the Opposition party demanding that the special module be scrapped and “set on fire” even as the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) accused the grand old party of repeating its “appeasement politics” and refusing to confront historical truth.
