The infamous Bihar State Education Board has made it to headlines by committing another gaffe, this time by inappropriately touching an issue as sensitive as Kashmir’s.

As per reports, a question paper prepared by the Bihar State Board for class VII students across all government schools asked them this question – ‘What the people of Kashmir country are called?’

The Board’s blunder of calling Kashmir not a part of India but a separate country has received brickbats from every corner.

Following the criticism, a senior member of the Board admitted it an ’embarrassing mistake’, and called it a ‘printing error’.
