If the Congress government had not taught Mughal history after independence and had taught the true and glorious history of its own brave kings, what impact would it have had on Indian education and society?1. Changes in Education🔹 What would have happened now:School textbooks mostly describe Mughal rulers (Akbar, Babur, Aurangzeb).Valiant kings and freedom fighters are given limited space.Students believe that history is filled with “foreign rule and rulers.”🔹 If Congress had changed history:The exploits of heroes like Shivaji, Maharana Pratap, Chola, Pandya, Govind Singh, and Rani Lakshmibai would have been prominently taught.Children would have become familiar with their country’s heroic tradition and glory.The sense of nationalism, patriotism, and self-respect would have been much stronger.—2. Social and Cultural Impact🔹 Current Situation:Many people are less familiar with their own country’s heroes.Foreign rulers and Mughals are portrayed as “great.”The sense of nationalism and patriotism may weaken.🔹 If true history had been taught:Young people would develop a sense of patriotism and pride.Indian civilization, culture, and royal tradition would have gained recognition.Society would have found positive role models who fight for their country.—3. Political Impact🔹 Current Situation:Political and social controversies often arise over the way history is taught.People may fall into divisive thinking.🔹 If Congress had changed history:People would have experienced shared pride and unity through history.There would have been a greater balance of patriotism and heroism in political ideologies.—4. National Self-Respect and IdentityBy studying the deeds of true heroes and kings, people would have proudly understood their national identity.The confusion created by portraying foreign rule and invaders as “main characters” would have been dispelled.India would have truly realized its cultural and political pride.—🔹 Conclusion:If the Congress government had de-emphasized the Mughals and taught the true history of its brave kings, then:1. Patriotism and pride would have increased in education.2. The recognition of our history and culture would have strengthened in society.3. Youth would have found positive role models.4. Political and social unity would have strengthened.➡️ In short: India’s nationalist and glorious history would have reached the public earlier, and religious or cultural confusion would not have spread due to the influence of foreign rulers.
