West Bengal politics

I was reading the book by Arun Shourie on "Eminent historians- Their technology, the line, their fraud". In which he has given several examples with proof where the history taught to Indian students are distorted and conviniently projected for political gains.

Especially the history book in West Bengal is so much edited right from the 3rd grade leading to an impression that Communism ideology is the only saviour of the world. The book goes on to give numerous examples from various text history books how the history is distorted for political gains and not to hurt minority sentiments.

In my opinion history should never be distorted it is much bigger sin than corruption. The repercussions are huge.
