‘Creating’ history

Pardeep examines how history is ‘created’ in India:

Brahmin scholars have ignored all the Dalit- Bahujan revolutionaries like Ayyankali from Kerala who fought for the poor Dalits rights. Birsa Munda – Tribal leader from Bihar, Mahatma Joytiba Phule – father of social revolution, EVR Periyar – Great revolutionary from Tamil Nadu, but where all these stands in Indian history? None of these revolutionaries are history books, not much bother to write about all these. It seems Indians have forgotten the struggle of all the greatest revolutionaries. In same way, the women liberator, Savitribai Phule’s (1831-1897) B’day is not celebrated as Teacher’s day, who was the real liberator of poor section of society, 1 teacher who opened many schools for poor Dalits.
