In a controversial remark, Uttar Pradesh deputy chief minister Dinesh Sharma on Tuesday said Mughals were "not our ancestors", they were actually 바카라plunderers바카라.
"They looted the country. This is not our history," Sharma said while responding to a question during an award ceremony in Lucknow, India Today.
He added that In Uttar Pradesh, every religion would be given equal respect, 바카라but we won't accept Pakistani-Talibani culture바카라.
Sharma, who is also the education minister in the Yogi Adityanath government, said that the UP government will introduce new syllabus in schools which could be based on modern history.
If reports are to be believed, educational bodies in the BJP-ruled states across India seem to be making a conscious effort scrap history of Mughals from textbooks.
The textbooks for Class 7 and 9 students of schools under Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education will not contain detailed chapters on Mughal rulers and Western history, which includes the French Revolution, Greek philosophy, American War of Independence and others in detail.
Rajasthan바카라s official Class 12 history textbook reads: "didn바카라t flee the 1576 Battle of Haldighati against Mughal emperor Akbar but turned the battle towards the hills바카라. This, many experts claimed, was part of a BJP effort to saffronise history.
