"The so-called educated people and media of this country have accepted this narrative. Europe-centric ideas are there in our lives, our education system, and our perspective of the society. The narrative will not change unless we give up the colonial mindset," Dattatreya Hosabale said.
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh General Secretary Dattatreya Hosabale on Friday stressed the need for changing the colonial narratives, which he said have been carried forward even after independence.
Speaking at the launch of former Rajya Sabha MP Balbir Punj's book "Narrative ka Mayajaal", Mr Hosabale said the narrative set during the British rule was carried forward after independence by their "agents".
Kerala Governor Arif Mohammad Khan was also present at the event. Talking about the narratives, Mr Hosabale said when the Mughals invaded the country, people faced them fiercely.
