Musharraf, Jaichand & present rulers of India?

Indian PM Dr. Singh criticizes Vajpayee to US President Bush and thus made subject of discussion domestic politics on the land of foreign. Few weeks ago He praised British rule in India at the time of accepting honorary Doctorate degree from Oxford University, London. His cabinet minister was Jagdish Titler whose name has been inserted in 84’ riots. Foreign Minister Natwar Singh also adopted the same attitude when he was visited to China. Sonia did the same mistake though knowingly in London when she was in Europe Tour. Congress is under the grab of Sonia’s Italian Fascism and Secularism. Rahul Gandhi is taking training for that. Public and parliamentarians should question to these irresponsible leaders.

Indian PM Dr.Manmohan Singh , Natwar Singh and Rahul Gandhi recently visited to Afghanistan. During that visit they have visited to Babar’s Grave. Needless to say Babar is an Invader, not a Indian King. There is another grave in Afghanistan, grave of legendary Rajput king Prithviraj Chauhan , a hero in India ,lying in a dilapidated condition in the outskirts of Ghazni . They didn't visit the grave and pay homage to the Hindu King. Can they forget Prithviraj Chauhan, union minister of state for prime minister’s office and Sonia Gandhi’s point man for Mumbai? They are only following the direction of Sonia Gandhi to please her. In this pleasing competition they placed garland on Babar in Ayodhya matter to please Muslims by showing their secular credentials at the cost of the pride of Hindu community. Still they are wiping for abolished Babari structure.

Lier Musharraf says:Pak ready to forget UN resolution on J&K ! Pak wanted to remind 900 years ago’s history in its own way. Provocative Ghauri was the main news appeared in media before some time. Pakistan has named its missiles Ghauri and Ghaznavi with the specific intention of taunting India. Ghori held a grand durbar to celebrate his victory. His prize catch, Prithviraj Chauhan, the king of Delhi, blind and a prisoner, was paraded and publicly humiliated. Deeply incensed by the treatment meted out to his monarch, Chandravardai took refuge to a subterfuge. He announced that though completely blind, Prithviraj could still hit a target guided solely by sound, and he asked for permission for this feat to be performed. Prithviraj Chauhan was handed a bow and arrow, and Chandravardai sang a now-famous verse which told him of the elevation and distance to Ghori's throne. And thus, guided solely by sound,
Prithviraj shot his arrow through Ghori.

“Prithviraj Chauhan was a coward who ran away to save his life during the second battle of Tarain with Mohammad Ghauri." "Jaichand (generally believed to be a traitor) was, in fact a 'hero' who gave up his life while fighting the forces of Ghauri." This is the "new" history that students of Class XI will learn under the CBSE and ICSE courses from this academic session. The revised history book, Medieval Indian History, published by NCERT, demolishes old beliefs and tramples over heroes of history. Edited by Prof. Satish Chandra, the fifth chapter of the book on Medieval History clearly states that Prithviraj Chauhan tried to run away from the battle, but was taken prisoner.

While the NCERT book throws new light on Prithviraj Chauhan and Jaichand, the Class 11 book Ancient India History, written by Prof. Ram Sharan Sharma, discards the presence of Lord Krishna during the Mahabharata. The book says, "Although Krishna plays an important role in the Mahabharata, inscriptions and sculptural pieces found in Mathura dating back to 200 BC and 300 AD do not attest to his presence. Because of this, ideas of an epic age based on the Ramayana and Mahabharata have to be discarded."
