Students can now get NCERT books delivered to their places with the National Council of Educational Research and Training launching an online portal .
Schools can log onto www.ncertbooks.ncert.gov.in by entering their board’s affiliation number and other details to place orders for the 2018-19 session by September 8.
They are not required to make the payment at the time of placing orders.
“The portal will ensure better distribution of NCERT books across the country and will also address the apprehensions of schools and parents about their availability,” a senior NCERT official said.
Schools will also have the option of procuring textbooks directly from their nearest NCERT vendors or the regional production-cum-distribution centres (RPDCs) of the NCERT in Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Guwahati and Bengaluru.
Retail sale counters will continue selling the books, he said.The CBSE has written to over 19,000 affiliated schools to use the portal to order books .
