Union Home Minister Amit Shah said, “Many times, there is talk in the country that history is being erased. I do not agree with those scholars. The process of decolonisation is not about erasing history. It means presenting history completely, authentically, and from an Indian perspective to the people once again. That is decolonisation, and it must happen.”
