Mangalore University withdraws lesson ‘damaging moral fabric of society’
- | Tuesday | 10th July, 2018
MANGALURU: In face of stiff opposition to Mattaru Vittal Hegde’s ‘Maguvina Tandhe’ lesson prescribed for second BCom students, Mangalore University has withdrawn the same. The lesson ‘Maguvina Tandhe’, a story by Hegde written in 1939, features in Kannada text ‘Nudi Nupura’. Incidentally, the university communiqué did not mention the reasons for withdrawing the lesson. Inclusion of such lessons in textbooks is a deliberate attempt to misguide students and vitiate their healthy minds with impure thoughts. The voice of opposition raised by the teaching community to such lessons is a welcome development, the organization added.
