Parents were amazed when they saw the question paper. The parent body head Anish Jharjhare said that instead of asking such a question, the school should have asked students about historical icons like Maharani Ahilyabai Holkar and Chhatrapati Shivaji.
Mr Jharjhare said that the school should be shut down.
The district education officer said that he is aware of the matter. "A show-cause notice will be issued to the school. Based on the school's response, appropriate action will be initiated," said Sanjiv Bhalerao, Khandwa district education officer.
The same examination paper also had a question asking students to name North Korea's dictator, but the parent's body did not object to it.
