The present book on Social Sciences meets the requirements of the new NCERT syllabus for Grade VI. The main objective that has been kept in view is that the contents have been presented in a manner such that the readers can relate them to their everyday experiences. They should be able to imbibe the ideals of our Constitution by getting a feel of the functioning of our democratic institutions at the grass root levels. Special care has been taken to focus on social and economic programmes for development of those sections of the society that are under-privileged and relatively disadvantaged.
The chapters on History have been carefully supplemented with maps and photographs to give a better understanding of historical developments relating to India starting from the earliest societies and extending upto the end of the ancient period of Indian history. Summary of Facts Learnt and structured questions at the end of every chapter have been designed to help recapitulation and also provide scope for creative expression.
