More recently, he urged the national government to impose a travel ban on Muslims, as US President Donald Trump has attempted to do.
No buddy! the travel ban is here to stay.
"To BJP true believers, the Muslims who ruled India for centuries were foreign invaders who despoiled a prosperous land, destroyed temples and palaces, enslaved and discriminated against Hindus,( true, true and true ) assaulted Hindu women, and converted millions to Islam.( once again True,except for some wiley Brahmins who volunteered to become Muslims to gain financial advantage ) In this telling, this sordid saga of assault on Hindus culminated in the 1947 Partition of India by the British, which created Pakistan.
This is a highly simplistic interpretation of a complex history – one characterized far more by assimilation and co-existence than by religious conflict.( Really ?) But that doesn’t matter to the Hindu chauvinists who constitute the bulk of the BJP’s electoral base. They agree with the hardline Hindu chauvinist and BJP legislator Sangeet Som, who last month called the Taj Mahal “a blot on Indian culture” that had been “built by traitors” and “should have no place in Indian history.” If people like Shah Jahan – who supposedly wanted to “wipe out all Hindus from India” – were part of India’s history, Som said, “we will change this history.”
"the Hindu-chauvinist BJP is seeking to redefine India as a Hindu nation long subjugated by foreigners – not just British colonizers, but also Muslim conquerors."
There is nothing to redefine It is the TRUTH
go back to your viral speech a few years ago( 2015) in Oxford
"‘Britain destroyed India through looting, expropriation – and outright theft – all conducted in a spirit of deep racism and amoral cynicism.’ "
what were you smoking when you opined as such?
How does one colonizer is a symbol of " assimilation and co-existence and the other a looter and an amoral racist"
