Disgraced Pakistani dictator General Pervez Musharraf may be facing a slew of criminal charges in his own country, but an NCERT-recognised text book in Madhya Pradesh lists him among great personalities of the world.

The Class 3 book ‘Naitik Shiksha, Samanya Gyan Evam Yog’ asks the students to identify a few great personalities by printing just their photographs.

Dalai Lama and Sonia Gandhi have the honour of sharing the page with Gen Musharraf, the man who overthrew a democratically-elected government in Pakistan and started Kargil war with India.

The page is found in the second section of the book’s eighth chapter, reports Eenadu.

The book, published by the Gayatri publications, Delhi, and written by Pankaj Jain, has been recognised by NCERT.


The Jabalpur district bar association has lodged a strong protest and submitted a memorandum to the district collector SN Roopla.

They have demanded the chapter should be withdrawn and an inquiry should be instituted against the writer.
