Independence day.. but what does it mean..

Just felt like sharing few thoughts on independence day ..

Freedom.. I believe it holds special significance especially for Indians. It's good to feel free to express your views thoughts , do as you like , travel in your country where ever you feel like .Go to temple and pray to your god , follow your cultural and religious beliefs . I am a Hindu hence I take it as a privilege that country where this religion was born is still adhering to faith  until present day and not yet lost it totally .

There were civilizations which were less fortunate like Persians , Aztecs , Incas ,red Indians ,  some Nordic communities which fell victim to external forces and would be terminated forever inspite of thriving for thousands of years .. but we survived , not just survived we are on path to reclaim our lost glory ..

Why I consider it as a privilege few historical reasons it .. not just freedom from Britishers but there were numerous occasions where vedic way of living was under existential crisis and was about to be over run by agressive foreign invaders purely on basis of brut force .. first wave came in for  of Greeks 3 century BC , then came sakas , khusans  , Hunas popularly know as Huns , Muhammed Quasim from ummayad chaliphat , Ghazni , Ghori , Taimur , Mongols yes even Mongols had come here , finally Babur, abdalli and Nadir shah ..
Every time some aggressor came displayed  inhuman savagery , brut force . there was resistance , confrontation, battles , sacrifices by  Hero's in form ethnic rulers lost in pages of history . From Chandragupta Maurya, 2 nd century  Gupta empire , Gautami putra , satvahanas , pandyas , 6 th century  Kabulshahi , Zabul Shahi kings of Afghanistan, Raja Dahir of Sindh ... Bappa Rawal of Mewar , Maharanas , Sikhs of Punjab, Marathas of Deccan.. each of these represents an historical epoc which requires understanding and study .. not just to get a historical perspective but to understand sacrifices made by them to preserve their way of life and preserve this culture ..
Let's not look at independence as a event on 15 th August1947 .. but as an culmination of all these historical episodes which has given us an sense of entitlement to live the way we wish , preserve our culture and beliefs .. The onus purely lies with us today to respect and Cherish it .. or simply take it as another public holiday .. Jai Hind , Vande Materam ..

How leftist historians created false narrative of History ..leaving deep impact on mentality of Indian citizens.

How leftist historians created false narrative of History ..leaving deep impact on mentality of Indian citizens.

For any country's citizen to feel proud , they need to know about their ancestors , their sacrifices , challenges faced in form of external attackers and how they emerged victorious in such situations .
They need to understand civilizations  continuity and evolution  in co relation to its nations geography and how it influenced regional culture and  history.
Unfortunately in India , this nobel task of teaching kids their rich heritage is assigned to some twisted leftist mentality holding scholars which work with an ulterior motive of projecting such a picture of this nation that a child is utterly frustrated disinterested and finds himself carrying a defeatist mentality in comparison to western civilizations ...by the time schooling is done he carries hazzy notion about his civilization and culture and is mostly disinterested ..
Such students or children eventually will have lack of commitment towards the nation will low sense of patriotism and self esteem on international  platform .

Now who are these people ..

Congress party nominated Romila Thapar a know leftist along with Irfan Habib and R S Sharma who work on the content of history books for nearly 4 decades now .No history book capture the struggle of establishment of Mauyrian empire , Maratha Empire , Vijaynagar empire or how south east Asia is closely related to India in cultural terms ..
How Gandhara  present day Afghanistan was epitome of classical Indian music , even today we have a cultural programme in Pune having name Gandharva music fest .. How Indians dominated trade routes for centuries together , trading with Greeks , Romans and Chinese much before Portuguese learnt to built their ships .Basra which is city in Iraq was called Al Hind because concentration of Indian traders in the city .

  All we know is Vasco Da Gama found sea route to India , completely ignoring the inquisition of Goa and brutal methods used by Portuguese  here . Thist of manipulation and partial selective information is provided to students ..  

These are the same people who have filed a litigation in supreme court in protest against arrest of suspected naxalites plotting to kill prime minister .. The lawyer fighting the case is Abhishek Manu Singhvi from Congress party .
The Nexus is clear and on the face .. leftist historians collaborating with Congress party creating a confused mentality citizens who can be swayed in any direction provided they see their  menial personal gains in form of subsidiary , reservations , benefits  over National Interest ..
Citizen aware of the true Historical past of this country would always be willing to sacrifice of not much at least a little for larger National interest..
