Education mafia derailing affordable schoolbooks: NHRC member alleges conspiracy to block NCERT, SCERT

NHRC member Priyank Kanoongo alleges an education mafia is trying to block his directive for private schools to use affordable NCERT/SCERT books instead of expensive private publisher options. He vows to continue the fight for poor and middle-class families, asserting that attempts to overturn the order will fail. This action follows a complaint about the financial burden on parents.
