RE:Guha and his book
by RABI KANUNGO on Aug 27, 2007 09:31 AM

Dineshji,
A well written opinion though I have not gone through Shri Ram Chandra Guha's book. Thank you very much. Let me add a point - when we say 'Hindu', it never adequately projects India's past with all adapatabilities, beauty and glamour that Indians tought from it. If nothing interfered in the course of history there was no necessity to teach Indian anything that was later termed as 'secularism'. Historically, Hindu is a confusing word that was imposed upon India and we are trying to be familiar.
