Looking at the messages posted, we can assume that BJP has been successfull in poisoning the mindset of hindus, wherein the adherence to hindutva politics makes us incapable of thinking outside the tinder-box being created by politicians.
You must believe in your conscience to decide who can be a role model and who cannot. If you believe it is necessary to be alive to fight any evils, then What Veer Sawarkarji did when in Andaman Jail, or What Raja Shivaji did to escape from Aurangzebs clutches, is all fare. As an amature I think it is called GANIMI KAVA. which every citizen of this world must believe .
People like Bipan Chandra or any Historian for that matter cannot decide or prescribe the role models.
This article in a way was eye opener, the so called Great Historians like Bipin Chandra, can come out with such nasty things. He indirectly gave a idea to the people about Hindutva.He should have mentioned in the interview that it was the Muslim League which came into existence first, and knowing the biased manifesto of the League, the Hindu Maha Sabha came into existence. Please for the sake of India, ask Bipin Chandra to throw light on the great culture of India, rather than giving these type of controversial intervies...
The most respected Newspaper like Rediff shoukd not have published such a rubbish article written by a thirdrate, unknown Historian. What kind of a Histry Profesor is He? He will not stand the brilliance, the sacrifice of Ver Savarkar. Let him experiment one week of the prison treatment Veer Savarkar had sufferered. This Historian should be send to a regium of Saddam Husain. Has written A Mahakaya like veer Savarkar. How does He compare Sonis Gandhi with Savarkar? He must be at the feet of Sonia. Sonia said that Veer Savarkar was a AAROPI in Gandhi's murder. When a nan is cleared completely by the Court what right Sonia has to make such remarks. Savarkar did not spend time in a First Class Hotel(prison) while meals were surved by his private cook. Let the Historian and Sonia Gandhi perform a Khana for a single day. I will stop here. Rediff should also take a lead in not punlishing such rubbish articles.
