On the reason for the delay, a senior CBSE official said: "Printing was ordered on time. However, it had to be stopped in the first half of April as there were errors in the books. "The delay got longer as the printing had to be stopped for the second time post the publication of close to 60,000 books. "As per the curriculum a chapter of the book had to be withdrawn. The print run for the book, according to sources, is closed to 5 lakh copies.
