A class seventh question paper of the Bihar state education board has placed Kashmir as a separate country.
As per media reports, the incident happened in the half-yearly examination of class-VII in Kishanganj, Seemanchal district of Bihar.
“What is the name of the residents of Kashmir country,” the question paper asked.
In the question paper, students were asked to fill in the blanks as to what the citizens living in these countries are called.
In the questions they were asked, what is the person living in China called at number one? What is the second number called the person living in Nepal? What is the third person who lives in England called? In the fourth, what is the person living in Kashmir called and in the fifth place it has been asked that what is the person living in India called?
The District Education Officer Subhash Kumar Gupta said that the matter is being unnecessarily blown out of proportion.
