It would be incorrect to pass on the thoughts of strife that erupted during Partition onto the younger generation with respect to national and social unity, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar said on Sunday against the backdrop of a recent CBSE circular to schools on the issue, reported the PTI on Sunday.

Sharad Pawar was speaking at the inauguration of a school in the presence of senior Congress leader Sushilkumar Shinde and state minister and BJP leader Chandrakant Patil, as per the PTI.
