"इतिहास - गलती, विकृति और समाधान"

आजकल दौर चल रहा है इतिहास विकृतिकरण और राजतान्त्रिक महापुरुषो पर सवाल खडे़ करने का। हम सभी ऐसे अनेक प्रकरणो से परिचित है आज हम इसके समाधान पर बात करते है|
सर्वप्रथम तो क्षत्रिय इतिहास को केवल युद्धो तक सीमित करके ही इतिहासकारो ने न्याय नही किया। Image आधे इतिहासकारों ने भी यदि युद्धों से इतर अन्य दृष्टिकोण भी अपनाया होता तो आज इतिहास की स्थिति अलग होती।

क्षत्रिय समाज के असल योगदान की विवेचना के लिए युद्धों से इतर इतिहास के कुछ अन्य आयामों पर इतिहास लेखन की आवश्यकता है, उदाहरणार्थ -

Lying from his teeth!

Panipat was a battle led by Abdali against Mughals, Marathas being protectors of Mughal throne had a natural obligation to fight, why will anyone else fight for Mughal cause?

Yet, more than 6,000 Rajputs fought against Abdali in #Panipat,for their people. All they know is to accuse others of their own shortcomings.

Rajputs never called you traitor for sitting ideal in Battles of Tarain, Bayana, Khanwa, Thanesar, Lahore, if we use same logic what will you be called for sitting ideal for 1000 years?

#PrithvirajReview:
A loose attempt to establish Prithviraj as a Feminazzi who gives half of his time fighting to establish Sanyogita a part of his Darbar, making her sit beside him to listen to public complaints. Such virtue signalling was never a part of Kshatriya traditions.
// Women used to stay in their Zenana mahal rather than being part of such gatherings.

Samrat Prithviraj is shown a brother to Maharaja Jaichandra, yet he goes on to marry his own niece. Seriously?

Ghurid army is supported by elephants while Rajputs were fighting on horses. 🙄

#Thread on evolution of words Rajanya-Kshatriya-Rajputra.

Golu forgot that there's only a limited usage of word Kshatriya in Rig Veda, Rajanya is the word used in place of it.Hence by #GoluKaLogic, Ks emerged only after Rajanya was replaced by this word in later vedic period.
- Except Purush Sukta there's no reference of word Brahmin in Rig Veda. So acc to Golu, they also landed on earth as soon as people started calling them Brahmins.

Golu doesn't know that Rajanya was a lineage based identity as Rajput, unlike the word kshatriya.
