Not that I know much about History, but thanks to social media, - TopicsExpress



          

Not that I know much about History, but thanks to social media, one stumbles upon interesting academic debates. Im pretty sure this will not make it to nightly news and you know why. But, as a news junkie who tries to make the important interesting, heres an extract to make you think ;) : He (Arun Shourie) appears and reappears in the historian’s avatar when the BJP comes to power, tries to please his masters and keeps waiting for crumbs to fall from their table. His view of the past is no different from that of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and their numerous outfits consisting of riffraff and goons who burn books that do not endorse their view, vandalize art objects which they consider blasphemous, present a distorted view of Indian history, and nurture a culture of intolerance.
