It is strange how this kind of statement get a place in text books. 

What a foolish and idiotic content that's included in a school text book in Chattisgarh ! How one can expect good education if such foolish content is included in the school text books.

Well,all that I can say is the author of this moronic,textual claim has unwittingly credited the fair sex with something which it may not have been aspiring for! In a level-playing if their employability

and acceptability is more what is its fault? 

True Chinmoy. It's not only the author of this text book, I hold responsible, the Government which included an outdated content in a  school Text book. Its mere spewing poison in to the minds of tender brains.

Author and govt, both wish to teach class x students that women are not considerable in calculating unemployment percentage! More woman are working thats why unemployment is increasing. how foolish!

What more can we expect from such kind of people? The tragic part is, the youths will be spoilt by this type of knowledge.

Over a period, these thoughts will firmly rooted. And in its turn makes men see every woman as a demon who stands in their  way to block the progress and development.

This text and matter was apparently written in 2006 - 2007 and now instead of reviewing it, it has been passed as it is...It is also noteworthy that the education minister is a lady. It just goes to show the mindset of Indian men in general with probably a minority who are exceptions to such ridiculous beliefs !

If reviewing an old text book is not done, it's a mistake. And if Education minister accepting it as a text book is a grave mistake. Anyway one looks at it it's an unpardonable mistake.

I would like to read this text in a different way-  for me it reads that women have become so competent and intelligent that they can outclass men in the field of employment. A Clear warning for menfolks.
