The idea that inclusive education and inclusive society is still a theoretical vision is dispiriting. There are schools that promote inclusive education. However, inclusiveness is not attained at the fullest. Likewise, society also lacks inclusiveness at large. There are several strategies and schemes devised to bring social inclusiveness. The proposed paper discusses the textbook as a tool to impart inclusive ideas at the school level.
