Mumbai: NCP Chief Sharad Pawar alleged that some people are trying to convert India into a Hindu Rashtra by distorting history into school textbook. He also implored Historians to come together and pen the truth for the sake of generation next.
Addressing a Seminar at Y B Chavan,he said an awareness needs to be created among the youth that some people are trying to corrupt their minds to spread poison in the society.
He expressed concern as he termed it as a grave matter and told that discussion should take place on this issue.
He said that to counter the existing atmosphere, historians need to come together, meet regularly and pen the truth so that “original history” can be shown to the country.
Mr Pawar said that if allowed these elements will distort history and for coming generation we will have nothing to teach correctly.
The concern echoed by Mr Pawar on distorting history facts by hindutva elements have been expressed before also by prominent personalities.
