On the first day, Principal Secretary (School Education) Praveen Prakash addressed the gathering and said, "The SCERT (State Council of Educational Research and Training) has been publishing textbooks for Classes I to X with 376 titles in 2020. The SCERT and NCERT jointly published textbooks for Classes VIII and IX with 23 titles for the last two years and it is proposed to publish 26 textbooks this year including Mathematics, English for Classes I to VII and Science for Classes VI and VII to understand and follow the CBSE syllabus easily in Classes VIII and IX in future," as reported by The New Indian Express.
