The adolescent education programme handbook is being implemented at the national level by the NCERT and it was proposed by the UNICEF as a measure to prevent AIDS in the Third World countries. The module, prepared by the SCERT, however, followed a western approach\u00a0 with explicit content. For example, girl students of Class-VI will be taught about the condom usage, including a mock demonstration from the class teacher using an actual condom. Class-VII students will be taught lessons in sexual intercourse. One of the new modules is about tackling molestation and sexual abuse. This will require students to perform molestation scenes whereby they will learn practical lessons on dealing with outrage. Class-VIII students will have to write essays on bizarre topics like \u201cif there were no clothes for anybody\u201d, \u201cif there were no condoms\u201d, and \u201cif men had a uterus\u201d.\u00a0The Minister of Human Resource Development is requested to direct the CBSE to withdraw this objectionable module.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lok Sabha Debates Regarding Need To Review The Decision Of Proposed Sex Education In &#8230; on 14 March, 2007 &gt; Title: Regarding need to review the decision of proposed sex education in schools.
