A new school textbook in India created a problem. The book showed a famous old statue of a dancing woman. But the statue looked different. Someone covered the statue's bare chest with dark shading. The shading made the statue look strange and wrong.
Many people did not like this change. Parents asked questions. Teachers complained. Students wondered why the statue changed. People said the change was not good for education. They wanted students to see history correctly. The statue is very famous in India. It is part of Indian culture and art.
The statue comes from very old times. It shows important Indian history. Covering it up hides the truth. It also disrespects the ancient artists. The original statue is beautiful. It shows the skill of old Indian builders and artists. Changing it in a textbook is not right.
After the complaints, the textbook company listened. They decided to remove the dark shading. Now the statue looks like the original again. Students can see real history. The book now shows the statue without any changes or covers.
This story teaches us something important. Textbooks must show true history. We should not hide or change old art and culture. Young people need to learn the real past. Covering things up does not help education. It only creates confusion and problems. The statue is now restored in the textbook. Students can learn and understand Indian culture better.
