THE depiction of Jaisalmer as a part of the Maratha Empire in the Class 8 NCERT Social Science Textbook has come under fire from Chaitanya Raj Singh Bhati, a member of the erstwhile Jaisalmer royal family. The controversy sparked significant outrage online on Tuesday, with many voices calling for an end to what they perceive as the distortion of history and asserting that "Rajput pride is at stake". The disputed map figures on page 71 of Unit 3 in the chapter, 'The Rise of the Marathas'.
