There are quite a few chapters deleted from some Class 10 subjects and NCERT has now made them permanently clear for students. Know more about the latest NCERT update below.
- NCERT has just now uploaded PDFs for all Class 10 subjects with their deleted chapters, topics and subtopics as per the CBSE rationalised syllabus for 2022-23.
- This reduced syllabus to be followed from now 2022-23 seems to be permanent and could be followed in competitive exams like NEET and CUET in the coming year.
NEP 2020 provides instructions to take load off of students so they can indulge themselves in competency-based learning instead of rote memorisation. This is why the syllabus has been reduced multiple times in the past couple years.
So now finally NCERT has updated all these deleted chapters and topics for Class 9 to 12 textbooks so students may not follow them for board preparation.
Below, we have provided up all the reduced topics for all subjects in tabular form.
