Forces Scornful Towards India’s Culture Should Be Retaliated Against: Dhankhar

On Saturday, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar said that a small percentage of the nation’s population showed no regard for its 5,000-year-old cultural heritage and urged those who are proud of it to take revenge on those who did.

“It is a matter of concern that a section of people in the country who are not many, have no respect for India’s 5,000-year-old culture or its glorious past. They have a scornful attitude towards it and keep tarnishing the country’s image. They are either misled or misguided. They deserve to be retaliated against by people who take pride in our own culture and roots,”

Dhankhar said at a programme held at the Gurukul Kangri University in Haridwar. He said some misguided people in this “great country” cannot swallow the progress it has made in recent years.

“They are against the inclusive education policy in the mother tongue. The day is not far away when all education in India will be given in mother tongue,” he said.
He described the Gurukul Kangri University as the center of Indian nationalism and a representation of the core of its cultural ethos. He also asked the university to address the negative impact that certain Western universities are having on India’s development process.

“You have the scholarship and erudition that can counter this smear campaign,” he stated.
Dhankhar stated that if India wishes to become the Vishwaguru again, it must go back to the Vedas.

He stated that the foundation of the new National Education Policy is a sense of pride in the nation’s cultural heritage. He claimed that the G20 summit in Delhi provided a magnificent display of the nation’s 5000-year-old culture, which forms the basis of its identity, to the world’s wonder and admiration.

He claimed that the world leaders assembled in Delhi for the summit were impressed by the Natraj statue and the wheel of the Konark Sun Temple, which represent India’s ancient culture.
He stated that India is gradually shedding the “shackles of its colonial mindset” and that the three new laws that Parliament passed to replace the IPC, CrPC, and Evidence Act are a reflection of this shift in thinking.

“The system of penal law introduced by the British has been turned into a legal system of justice,” he stated.

The transformation of the Raj Path into the Kartavya Path and the statue of Subhas Chandra Bose at the India Gate demonstrate India’s growing confidence in its symbols.
He extended an invitation to the students of Gurukul Kangri University to visit the new Parliament building in Delhi, saying they would be his guests.

“A look at the new Parliament building will show you what a positive change has come about in the country under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership,” the vice president said.
