New Delhi, Aug 30 (ANI): After Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) excluded former PM Jawaharlal Nehru from its poster, Congress leader Shashi Tharoor asked Centre to stop attempting to rewrite history in petty way. “It's like making a movie poster without the hero. It’s like saying we’ll first show the supporting cast, which makes no sense... Nehru must be there. This poster should be withdrawn. Stop attempting to rewrite history in this petty way,” said the Congress leader. Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) excluded former PM Jawaharlal Nehru from one of the posters released by them on 75 years of Independence.
