New Delhi : In a startling revelation, the central government has appointed a 14 member committee comprising bureaucrats and ambassadors to rewrite history of the nation. Culture Minister Mahesh Sharma in an interview confirmed the development.
The committee’s chairman, KN Dikshit, told Reuters, “I have been asked to present a report that will help the government rewrite certain aspects of ancient history.”The committee met in the offices of the director general of the Archaeological Survey of India, a central body that oversees archaeological research.
According to the minutes of the history committee’s first meeting, Mr Dikshit,  said  “It was essential to establish a correlation between ancient Hindu scriptures and evidence that Indian civilization stretches back many thousands of years. Doing so would help bolster both conclusions the committee wants to reach: that events described in Hindu texts are real, and today’s Hindus are descendants of those times.”
The move is seen as a threat to impose and impart a certain  hindutva  ideology. Senior congress leader Shashi Tharoor, reacting to the development has termed it as a leading a political campaign by rightwing Hindus over Indian history, that seeks to reinvent the idea of India itself. “For seven decades after independence, Indianness rested on faith in the country’s pluralism, but the rise of Hindu nationalism had brought with it a “sense of cultural superiority,” Tharoor said.
Meanwhile, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen, chairman Asaduddin Owaisi, in an interview to Reuters  said  his people had never felt so marginalised in the independent history of India.
It was meant to happen and discreetly !
Popular mythology will be taught as factual history from now in our evidence-based scientific governance.
If that is the case, all present office-bearers, including PM (behaving as a dictator) are “defunct” effective immediately because they took oath under the Constitution that they didn’t know (or even care) to know like national anthem lyrics/words. If I were them, the like of Advani/Vajpayee, I would have resigned in shame.

History apart from monumental is farce all over the world for it can be altered by the rulers of the day. So it is better to ignore it and treat it as another novel of yesteryear. In the present context it is a political move with elections round the corner. As issues of public interest are confined to The sufferers no media, no govt. just slaves.
