Hindu Nationalists Undertake Effort to Rewrite History in India
This is a clickbait article.<p>The current government, under the façade of &quot;Hindu Nationalism&quot; is doing zilch (at least until now, nothing noticeable) to fix the education system that has been messed by the previous administration.<p>No matter how much you tweak with history, its not going to be effective if education system is left in shambles.Adding to that is the ministry of education, that knows how to troll bait international and Indian media, which tends to follow a certain ideology (thats not &#x27;Hindu Nationalist&#x27;).<p>With that said, having read more and more content from independent authors (not funded by an institution, publicly) I believe Indian history needs a thorough redo.<p>Problem is not with misinformation, but with lack of adequate information. The 1% of history gets 99% focus, whereas an equally amazing 99% is not mentioned, either due to laziness or due to scheming history writers, wanting to support a particular ideology.<p>Whats worse, is an Indian kid learns more about 200 to 400 yr old architecture around the world, but zilch about a 1000yr old fort or a temple in his&#x2F;her own state.<p>Whatever the effort of rewriting history, as claimed in this article is, it is not going to have any serious effect, other than a few progressive-liberal news outlets hyperventilating on a non-issue that will be forgotten when Trump&#x2F;Putin&#x2F;KimJongUn et al throw a new troll-bait.
