The National Council for Educational Research and Training (NCERT) on Friday said in a circular that "individual authorship" cannot be claimed for its textbooks. The statement came after political scientists Yogendra Yadav and Suhas Palshikar asked the academic body to drop their names as chief advisors, stating that they were "embarrassed" to be associated with the NCERT textbooks due to recent deletions.
