PM Modi Gave Special Respect To Noth-East- M Chuba Ao

Spread the love

BJP National Vice President M Chuba Ao expressed his point of view to making Modern Indian History for Modern Future of country.History was never my favourite subject during my student days. But I had a sharp memoryand could recollect dates. These helped me. Today’s matter for discussion here is history and how Indians should learn ‘modern history’.

In the meantime, I ought to congratulate our Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji and HomeMinister Amit Shah ji for bringing in a new set of Bills in parliament. Our Oppositionparties were busy doing something else protesting because an errand member has been suspended.The three new bills will now be scrutinised by a parliamentary committee. The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Bill, 2023 seeks to replace the IPC, the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita Bill seeks to replace the CrPC and the BharatiyaSakshya Bill, 2023 which seeks to replace the Indian Evidence Act, aim to protect the rights of citizens.

Its history in making and almost a revolutionary move.

For reasons best known to our communist-influenced historians and the Congress leaders, many vital aspects of Indian history have been kept hidden. Only during this session, PM Shri Modi recalled howon March 5th, 1966, Indian Air Force planes and men were used to bomb Aizawl. Who was thePrime Minister then and which party was in power? Young Indians have a right to know these.

Indian historians glorified by Congress and Communists generally confined History to the Mughalperiod and the colonial rule under the British. As a result, the post-Independent history hasbeen neglected. We in the BJP believe — rewriting history especially how the country evolvedsince 1947 is worth carrying out a mega exercise.

Again at the national level, now let me throw up one question: Who was India’s first Education Minister?Maulana Abul Kalam Azad is the correct answer. He was a fierce nationalist and had strongly disapprovedJinnah’s idea of two-nation — that is creation of Pakistan. But do our youngsters know these?

My moot point is that both British colonial history and Islamic medieval period history are important no doubt.But, now that we have reached a new century and India has already turned 75, it is time to knowIndia better.

Post-Independent history or contemporary history is thus an important facet and will be more useful for youngsters.
The ‘Modern Indian History’ should be made relevant for the Future generation.

There is another important feature about knowing your own nation’s history. At this age I have startedrealising that ‘knowing history’ gradually can help people/youngsters develop a sense of belonging tothe community, their own state and the country. Patriotism can gradually and certainly develop in youngsters.

This is true for youths and young people either in Assam or Jammu and Kashmir or anywhere else.
Of course, my thoughts were directed towards these ‘historical aspects’ as August 15th is round the corner;and it will be our solemn duty to pay homage to the likes of Maulana Azad and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patelalong with other national leaders of the time.

Why Congress party wants to continue to glorify British Raj ?

On the IPC and that new set of Bills have been introduced. I also strongly feel, our youngsters need to know — What does IPC stand for? It was not Indian Penal Code. Originally, it was the “Irish Penal Code” and Macaulay was the father of this IPC.

In fact, IPC norms were introduced first by the East India Committee in 1834 to control Indiansand cater to the British interest.Just to refresh our memories, we must recall that there is a lot of Christian history involved in it.The “Irish Penal Laws” is a term which covers a range of laws enacted between 1558 and 1759 aimed atdisenfranchising Catholics in Ireland.

The “Penal Laws” is the name given to the code of laws passed by the Protestant Parliament of Irelandwhich regulated the status of Roman Catholics through most of the eighteenth century. These laws are considered key to understanding the history of the period as well as the sectarian conflicts ofNorthern Ireland.

The declared purpose of the Irish Penal Laws was to disenfranchise the native majority from all power, both political and economic. The ideal was to entice the colonised Irish into wholesale conversion to Protestantism, as observed in an internet source. A Catholic could avoid the oppressive effects of these laws by conversion. The moot point is the IPC norms were enforced in India to suit the interest of the colonialmasters. Hence, in BJP, we protest why for all these years the Congress did nothing to do away with thecolonial legacy.

Why should we copycat the British colonial masters always?

Therefore, I say, we must be thankful Prime Minister and Home Minister Amit Shah jiand also the Parliament as a whole as the first crucial step has been taken to replace the old laws. In Bible, Moses took 40 years of journey from Egypt to the Promise Land.These 40 years were to remove slavery mentality. In Indian case, we have crossed 75 years.It is now Amrit Kal, and so we have to go forward with our own laws; otherwise our youngergeneration may never learn to be patriot in a true sense of the word.The world’s largest democracy deserves to have all laws and constitutional provisionsof its own.
