Ref No. ____________________________

Sir/Madam,

It is stated that the complainant namely Mr.

_____________________father of our ________________________ who is a
student of our school, raised an issue in regards to the English Project (Mughal
Family Tree) in Class XI given by our teacher __________________. It is
humbly stated the said Project was given with the purpose to enlighten the
basic history, as we all known that Mughal Empire was founded in the year
1526 and it came to an end in the year 1857. So, it can be clearly seen an
empire who ruled for approx. 331 years has an elaborate part in our Indian
History and most basic information should be provided to the students. So, it is
our duty as Teachers to observe that learning unbiased history is the privilege
of children. And it can be clearly seen that the project was strictly upon the
Family Tree of the Mughal Empire which is the most basic information for any
student to know as they will face these question in their future competitive
exams and also for their own sake of knowledge.

History can be divided into 2 parts basically:

1. Factual part
2. Logical part

The factual part is basically dates, years, names, titles and so on. They leave
no scope for manipulation and are therefore are mostly same in all the
authentic sources of history. So, you can say that they are more or less
accurate.
Now, coming to the logical part. The logical part is basically the story part and
is open ended. The story part is open to scrutiny and allows people to interpret
history in all possible ways. That’s why there are versions of history in different
perspectives. But this trait of history makes it a double edged sword i.e. on one
hand, it makes history interesting and makes it awesome for discussion but on
the other hand, it creates confusion and creates conflict.

As such the said Project on the Family Tree of the Mughal Empire of XI
was in par with the Factual part. Also, a project work helps a student to
develop skill to gather data from a variety of sources, investigate diverse
viewpoints and arrive at logical deductions. To develop skill to comprehend,
analyze, interpret, evaluate historical evidence, and understand the limitation of
historical evidence. To learn to work on diverse cultures, races, religions, and
lifestyles. To learn through constructivism-a theory based on observation and
scientific study. To understand contemporary issues in context to our past. To
develop a global perspective and an international outlook. To grow into caring,
sensitive individuals capable of making informed, intelligent, and independent
choices.

Yours Faithfully
