Why Indian History Recognizes Aurangzeb But Not Lachit Borphukan: Assam CM Asks | Times Now Summit 

For the first time I'm hearing the name of Lachit Borphukan. In school his name never appeared in the history textbooks. I really feel ashamed about being unaware about great leader like him 😔

i read lachit borphukan history , honestly This great warriors is as great as great chatrapati shivaji.

Amazing just amazing. He spoke the truth. Our history text books focuses on mughals more than the real heroes of India.

I am glad finally our Assam's great history is being recognised nationwide. Proud to be an Ahom. 🔥

The most courageous CM who reveals the truth that the Indian history ignored!

Finally the rest of the country is recognising the absolutely brave heritage and fascinating history of Assam. Besides, Lachit Borphukan, there are many Assamese warriors and Queens and Kings that helped shaped modern Assam. Not just Assam, but the rest of the NE states are also famed for their martial spirit.

Ahmedabad: - Who is Ahmed? Moradabad: - Who is Murad? Aurangzeb: - Who is Aurangzeb? Faizabad: - Who is Faiz? Farooqabad: - Who is Farooq? Adilabad: - Who is Adil? Sahibad: - Who is Sahib? Hyderabad: - Who is Haider? Secunderabad: - Who is Sikander? Firozabad: - Who is Firoz? Mustafabad: - Who is Mustafa? Ahmednagar: - Who is Ahmed? Tughlaqabad: - Who is Tughlaq? Fathabad: - Who is Fateh? Usmanabad: - Who is Usman? Baktiyarpur: - Who is Baktiyar? Mahmudabad: - Who is Mahmud? Muzaffarpur and Muzaffar Nagar: - Who is Muzaffar? Burhanpur: - Who is Burhan? Who are all these? These are the people who destroyed your culture, destroyed your temples, corrupted your idols and converted Hindus to Islam. This is their contribution in the history of India. Despite this, why do we remember them by naming cities after them? * These cities should change names. * Spread this far and wide!

Lachit Barphukan award gave to the best cadet of NDA so that the best cadet and other soldiers of Indian Army would take inspiration from this legendary Character name "Veer Lachit Barphukan"

Vijayanagara empire is one of the biggest empire who ruled from coast to coast all of south india for more than 300 years but there is no name in Delhi on Krishna Deva Raya or Raja Raja chola, Cholas ruled for more than 600 years , time to celebrate Indic heroes

The greatest CM of northeast India. Love from Nagaland 🇮🇳

One more character is underrated. MULAGABHORU, the greatest women fighter of Assam who fought against Mughal when her husband died in battlefield. I am not sure she won or died in the war. But she surely deserves to be known across the country like Jhansi Rani, Padmavati etc. Her story is so unique

Himanta sir speaks truth. He is gem. Love and respect to Himanta Da

This is what I love about this man .... Straight and blunt .... Love it

Thank you sir. Today I came to know about a great man called Lachit Borphukan. From Tamilnadu

Hemanta Biswa Sharma is straight and Blunt.. Thanks to Him people of rest of India know The History of Assam.

Mama is straight and blunt. Lv u himu mama

At last our hindu brothers of north east india getting due recognition.

Well as an Assamese I am absolutely proud. But the late historians in concern who wrote ncert stuff are mostly from North India especially Delhi based. They were really against British coz they saw the brutality with India getting new freedom. Also the Architecture near Delhi has many Mughal Architecture which really is magnificent. Hence I can see their biasness towards the Mughal. Also the less communication and knowledge about different regions during that era made it really hard. It's more like things produced mainstream in Delhi and people from different parts just read it. The knowledge gathered from one place flowing on outward direction but due to lack of communication and exploration, the knowledge didn't flow from outward to inward. Today after so many years of Independence Lachit Borphukon is only known when our CM celebrated him in DELHI. Mind you now we see India as a whole but when history was written was it the other way around? Whether the Delhi centre based historians had the privilege to learn about history from other parts of India? People used to fear coming to Northeast in that era calling us wild people Now this may answer many questions I guess why there's few for South Indian or Northeast history. East is still struggling but they recorded in them a lot, thanks to renowned people like Rabindra nath Tagore west bengal got attention but Orissa's history still ain't getting the attention coz they didn't pull it towards them. Just look at how much Rajputana is celebrated, privilege: being in the north but it's not true for Southern Kingdoms though they had such marvellous things too. Especially brave people. West just sighs in corner too like Konkani region.

Mughals had ruin Indian civilization, culture and heritage.Some historians viz loyal of Mughals had advocated about their experiences., they have also forgot about theirs own civilization, culture and tradition.

Proud to be a Hindu Brahman from Assam , proud of the bravery heritage of Assam and proud of our legendary Assamese warrior Lachit Borphukan

A true speaker. A strong statesman 🙏

This is the time to remove history written congress pro muslim batch.Need to add our great kings history in our books.I hope our prime minister will setup committee to review it

Our history books sucks 😔. We don't even know our actual history. Proud to have such a great CM.

I literally not know this. Thank Ram, BJP has bring NE to Mainstream and we also have a wonderful leader. I am really really grateful to Shri Ram

It is high time all the history books of ancient,medieval and modern India should be written a fresh by giving importance to only Indian King's n their kingdoms. Jai Hind !

I am from Assam even I don't know about Lachit Borpukhan. I was a CBSE student and there was no mention about him. I think CBSE history syllabus needs to be change completly.

Our history needs correction,cbse history books need lots of inclusion of real indian history

My country is in the safest hands ! 🙏 The next generation will get to learn the real facts ! Jai Shri Ram , Jai Hind 😅

Sri Sharma is outspoken and excellent. Thanks for his truthful statements

It's true, when a person write history how can a he wrote against his community and about his ancestors

Bollywood not gonna make a film about this, request North Eastern film makers to make a pan India film depicting the Lachit Barphukan legacy. It's a must. We should know who our true heroes are. It's our right to know.

Lachit borphukan was also great as chhatrapati shivaji and maharana pratap. Defeated mugals with bad health. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🚩🚩🚩

I hope and pray to see more such leaders in our Country

Proud of you 🥺 being an ahom 💙

Proud to hv u in our country sir. Truth should be spoken

Totally agreed 💯

First education minister of India.....

Absolutely spot on from our CM.

Great effort to say this... History to be rewritten... The History what we read, what we knew was not the history rather than what it was.... Bharat was hidden under INDIA

True patriotism by himanta

Anchors question is wrong - history of every part of India should be known to all 130 crores as it's collectively our history. There should not be point of mainstreaming but rather why it isn't already mainstream.

I just heard Ahom kings just recently. why is it not in my school History books.

Bahut dukh ki baat hai legend Lachit borphukon ko Assam ke alawa baki Hindustan nahi janta hai. JAI ASSAM. HI DUSTAN ZINDABAD. I AM PROUD TO BE BROUGHT UP IN ASSAM.

Our beautiful NE states have seen tremendous developments under our dynamic PM Modi and his aggressive team. Modi and only Modi till 2038 Jay hind

This CM is UNIQUE and he will make Northeast Shine in INDIAN map

Time to celebrate the Cholas,Mauryas,Guptas,Ahoms,Vijayanagaras,Marathas,Cheras,Pandyas,Pallavas and so many others. Time to Erase Mughals from the indian history map.

Re write the history.... Mughal out.... it's nesssary

This is called Delhi Centric History. Bengal has a great kingdom "Mallabhum"

Very very thanks to my CM Himant Biswa Sharma

So true, this is expected from gasiyauddin gazi and first pislamic education minister just after our independence

Lachit borphukan 🔥🔥

He is absolutely right.. People should read about ahom dynasty...also the legend of lachit borphukon... It's a imaging part of indian history... Assam history is so glorious.

This is the reality. Dynamic leader. We believe on you Sir. জয় আই অসম। জয় হিন্দ।

He will be next pm in India... Mark my word

জয় আই অসম

The next generation pair- Yogi as PM + Himanta as HM... it's going to be far brutal than Modi Shah pair🤣🤣🤣🤣

So right,so true, Hemant Bishwa Sarmaa ji. Thanks for enlightening the Indian youth Indian history written by Maulana should be changed.

Love from Assam 🇮🇳

Mama jui 🎉🎉🎊🎊. Proud of our CM 💗

The same question I used to get during school days, they didn't ruled south completely, how come they are badhashas??

The first cm of Assam who has spread our Assam Buranji all over the country 😌💝

🤗love this man. Greatest CM ever of Assam💗

very well said

History must revealed

Because of ignorance of Assam and northeastern state by India leds the growth of ulfa,nacn.. and many other insurgency. Please include our history to CBSE syllabus. We are Indian.. don't ignore us.

Our whole syllabus is a big lie Sir, we request you to teach us about our real heroes

Great point HBS 👏👏

Akbar was born under Rajput refuge .when his father flee to Iran after the defeat from the hands of sher shah suri .All the battles of mughal have been won by Rajput army .

Great Interview sir . But school college ke History books meh bhi ye sab hone chahiye acche seh ...

Very well informed Minister.I appreciate his Words of wisdom

FIRST TIME.....LISTENING GREAT LACHIT BARPHUKAN NAME........OH MY GOD KONGRESS TUSTIKARAN DESTROYED HISTORY ALSO

True 🔥

👏👏👏👏👏👏

It's time to recognize our hidden heroes under Modi ji's supervision.

Well said sir. I respect you but before 2014 you were also on the cabinet under the then congress government of Assam, you were also the then Education minister minister of state of Assam. Maybe these steps should have been taken at that time only, today i believe half of the population would know about Bir Lachit Borphukan, Maharaja Jashwant Singh.

From NCERT to S Chandra's Ancient Indian History, we read about Mughals and Mughals....NCERT should cover all the dynasty without depriving any religion or region....

Thank you Sir

Such a Great CM we have got ... Love you so much Mama

Great

You are great
