Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar says that the country’s textbooks contain a lot of information regarding the invaders but very little regarding the Indian Kings of that time. The actor was quoted as saying in an interview with ANI, the national news agency, as part of the promotion of Prithviraj’s film, which tells the story of Prithviraj Chauhan, the prince of India.

‘Unfortunately, our history textbooks contain only one or two sentences regarding Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan. But there is a lot to be said regarding those who invaded the country. There is no one in our books to write regarding this. I would like to bring this matter to the notice of the Minister of Education. It is not necessary to study or know regarding the Mughal emperors but to study and know regarding the other kings who ruled India while studying regarding them. They too were great. ‘- Akshay Kumar said.

The actor also thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for making Indian cinema world class. ‘I thank the Prime Minister for making India a global focus. He has changed the situation in the country. ” – Akshay Kumar said.

Meanwhile, Akshay Kumar’s remarks have sparked controversy and many have taken to Twitter to criticize him. Someone joked that there was a chapter regarding Prithviraj Chauhan in the seventh grade NCERT history textbook and that ‘Canadian’ Kumar must have fallen asleep while teaching. Another noted that Akshay Kumar had never gone to school or studied NCERT textbooks and that he might have gone on to teach at RSS branches.
