Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid moved the Bill in the House, which was passed by voice vote.
The Bill was designed in Bangla bringing a few changes to the National Curriculum and Textbook Board Ordinance 1983.
In the existing law, there is a provision of a five-member board headed by a chairman, but the number of its members has been increased to nine in the bill.
The eight separate businesses were defined for eight board members in the new law.
In the bill, there is a provision for formulating separate textbooks for small ethnic minority groups in their respective mother tongues as the matter is not there in the law.
Besides, a provision was incorporated in the Bill to formulate digital and interactive textbooks.
As per the bill, the National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB), a statutory body, will place its annual report before the government by March 31 every year.
