Akhilesh Yadav Condemns Class 7 Question Paper For Targeting A Particular Community
Samajwadi Party Supremo Akhilesh Yadav has questioned the setting of an examination paper to deliberately target a particular community. The SP leader shared a screenshot of the class 7 Sanskrit question paper on his social media handle X to raise concern about the deliberate choosing it.
Notably, question number 5 of the Sanskrit exam asks, “What is that which can go far without feet, and it’s literate but not an expert (Pandit)?” To this question, Akhilesh Yadav calls it a deliberate attempt at the behest of those in power.
उप्र में फिर हुआ एक ‘समाज विशेष’ का अपमान। इससे साबित हो गया है कि ये सब जानबूझकर सत्ता के इशारे पर हो रहा है।
असली सवाल, केवल प्रश्न पर नहीं बल्कि इस बात पर भी उठना चाहिए कि क्या प्रश्नपत्र बनानेवाले लोगों में भी सत्ता सजातीय लोगों को डाल दिया गया है। अगर जानबूझकर टारगेट किये… pic.twitter.com/hXhuNW8aMl

He further mentions, “The real question should not only be about the question itself but also about whether the people who set the question paper have been deliberately seeded with those aligned with the ruling powers. If any individual from the deliberately targeted ‘victim’ community had been on that committee, would such an option have been created?”
The SP leader put some questions and said that tomorrow, a question paper like this could be made:
Specific Questions
1. Is ‘hata nahi bhaata’ a proverb or an idiom? Explain its meaning. 2. Who issued notices for the meetings of a particular community? 3. Who forced the breaking of the Sanatan tradition of Shankaracharya Ji bathing at the Kumbh Mela? 4. Who unjustly kept a newlywed in jail? 5. In whose regime did the incident occur where a fire was set to a poor mother-daughter’s hut, causing them to burn alive inside it? 6.

8. In our country’s freedom movement, which people played the underground role of traitors or villains? 9. Who is referred to as a ‘plant-based activist’? 10. Explain ‘case withdrawal’ with examples.
Such questions can lead to caste based biasness among the students and make such behaviour a norm via the education system.
