The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
On March 17th, during a legislative assembly, the state government of Gujarat, India, announced that the Hindu holy scripture, the Bhagavad Gita, will be integrated into the compulsory curriculum for grade 6 to grade 12 students. During a press conference, Jitu Vaghani, Gujarat’s education minister, explained that despite the Bhagavad Gita being a Hindu scripture, “all faiths have accepted the moral values and principles outlined.” The announcement was quickly condemned by representatives from other religions, despite Vaghani’s claims that other faiths have accepted the state’s decision. Cedric Prakash, a Jesuit priest, accused Gujarat’s government of majoritarianism by stating “The study of any and every religious or holy book needs to be welcomed all at all times … but introducing only the study of Bhagavad Gita smacks of majoritarianism.” A.C. Michael, the founder of the United Christian Forum in India, recommended that students should be given the option to choose which religious scripture they can learn about. After Gujarat’s announcement, the state of Karnataka’s assembly is also considering establishing the same policy. If passed, Karnataka’s curriculum will make the Bhagavad Gita compulsory for all grade levels.
