BJP has been recently slammed for including 'Chacha Chaudhary and Narendra Modi' book as supplementary reading material for school children. The NCP has accused this marketing strategy by the party of promoting PM Modi in the educational cirriculum. NCP leader Supriya Sule appealed BJP to leave the country's education system out of its campaign strategy.

These books under the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) will be kept in school libraries, so that students can read them during their leisure time. According to a report on DNA, the book mostly has content in pictorial form. It has pictures of Modi and the famous comic book character Chacha Chaudhary where Chacha is shown spreading a word of the union government under the leadership of Modi. These books are priced at Rs 35.

The Maharashtra government had reportedly taken a decision to buy books worth Rs 59.42 lakh under the SSA as a supplementary reading material for students which include the books on Chacha Chaudhary and Modi series.
