"2004

• "The Gujarat State Higher Secondary Board, to which nearly 98 percent of schools in Gujarat belong, requires the use of certain textbooks in which Nazism is condoned. In the Standard 10 social studies textbook, the "charismatic personality" of "Hitler the Supremo" and the "achievements of Nazism" are described at length. The textbook does not acknowledge Nazi extermination policies or concentration camps except for a passing reference to "a policy of opposition towards the Jewish people and [advocacy for] the supremacy of the German race."

This was one item in a letter requesting the denial of a US Visa to Narendra Modi, Chief Minister of Gujarat, and signed, among others, by Nina Shea, Director, Center for Religious Freedom, Freedom House a Conservative think tank.
