BJP spokesperson : India's first education minister was uneducated
INC spokesperson : Just once India had uneducated 8th pass education minister (Smriti Irani) 🗿🔥
You just can't miss this gem.
Difference is One raised their voice on behalf of their people who are being oppressed for years against the government over the BILL and another one is just shouting at a movie theatre after learning half baked history through a movie. You cannot compare both.
This is all true;
Aurangzeb killed his own brothers and imprisoned his father, but so did Ashoka, who killed his brothers to ascend the throne. Every ruler has blood on their hands, including Sambhaji Maharaj, who imprisoned his own brother Raja Ram and even his stepmother. It’s crucial to recognize that every ruler, regardless of their empire, is a product of their time, shaped by power struggles and personal ambition.
Aurangzeb, like many rulers, didn’t act out of values but a desire to sustain his empire and his religion, just as Shivaji Maharaj did for the Maratha Empire. In fact, Shivaji himself signed the Treaty of Purandar in 1665, which resulted in his son Sambhaji working under Aurangzeb as a Mansabdar. There was no noble ideal at play just pragmatism in a world where power was the ultimate goal. Aurangzeb may have been cruel, but so was Sambhaji, especially when his army committed atrocities like the rape of Portuguese Christian women. Every ruler, it seems, has blood on their hands.
Sambhaji, in fact, did tie up with the Mughals and even revolted against his own father at one point. It's essential to understand that historical figures like Sambhaji and Shivaji Maharaj are often confused in popular narratives. Many are reading Chattrapati Sambhaji for Shivaji Maharaj.
Rana Sanga too, lost an eye, a hand, and a leg in battle, highlighting that fratricidal wars were commonplace when kingdoms were at stake. In such times, the kingdom was the reward for bloodshed.
Aurangzeb is often portrayed as a villain, akin to Hitler, but this oversimplified view overlooks his more nuanced legacy. While it’s true that he destroyed some temples, he also issued orders to protect others, granted land and stipends to Brahmins, and his actions reflect a complex and contradictory figure. Critics often focus on the restrictions he imposed on festivals like Holi, but they tend to overlook the fact that he consulted Hindu ascetics on health issues and employed more Hindus in his administration than any other Mughal ruler. These actions show that Aurangzeb was not a straightforward figure of religious intolerance. His actions, though controversial, cannot be solely understood through the lens of religious hate.
Aurangzeb’s reign was in a premodern context, where violence and state control were commonplace, and the idea of religious tolerance was far different from what we expect today. Hindus, in fact, fared well in Aurangzeb’s massive bureaucracy, with ample employment and advancement opportunities. Aurangzeb even went so far as to protect non-Muslim leaders and institutions, offering them the status of dhimmis, entitled to state defense. His policies toward temples were contradictory balancing protection with destruction but his ultimate goal seemed to be ensuring justice and stability throughout the Mughal Empire.
For instance, Aurangzeb issued a farman confirming a land grant for the Umanand Temple in Guwahati, Assam, allowing it to collect revenue. In 1680, he further directed measures to support such religious institutions. However, Aurangzeb’s recall of land grants to Hindus, in favor of Muslims, was likely a concession to the ulama. Yet, in many regions like Bengal, the policy was not strictly enforced, and more land was granted to Hindus than ever before, demonstrating that his policies were not as rigid as often portrayed.
1/2
For a group which actually never really won a single big battle and kept losing one battle after another, Marahtas are too emotional about their past.
Maybe seeing all those battles through the lens of Bollywood makes them feel special and brave.
Maturity is realising neither of the figures can be called villains or heroes. Aurangzeb was not as bad as people made him. Chattrapati Sambhaji Maharaj wasn't as good as people made him
History education is seriously needed in this country
Another attempt at saffronisation. Uff
No matter how the media paints him
No matter what BJP IT Cell says about him
RAHUL GANDHI should lead a protest against BJP govt on New Delhi stampede 👍
Shameless Reel minister Ashwini Vaishnaw needs to resign asap 🔥
I may not like or agree with Ranveer or Samay’s content..
But the way the politicians, media anchors, police and the whole machinery is harassing them is unacceptable, wrong and very suspicious.
It seems like an agenda to divert attention from real issues and bring dangerous censorship. Yesterday, Manipur CM’s resignation news was totally shut out from news channels.
🚨Ravish Kumar has literally torn apart the entire Godi Media.
Godi media had blacked out the news of Mahakumbh Stampede to hide the reality and incompetence of the regime.
Never Forget, Never Forgive💔💔
