Rajsamand MP Diya Kumari had put this issue in front of former Union Culture Minister Prahlad Singh Patel.
Inscriptions which were giving false facts related to the historical Haldighati battle fought between Maharana Pratap and Akbar have been removed from the bloodshed following the instructions of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) higher officials. The Rajput community has appreciated this move.
The Rajput society had been protesting against these incorrect fact inscriptions for nearly 40 years. He thanked Union Minister of State Prahlad Patel for removing the wrong inscription. He said that the country needs such a culture minister who can save the country’s glorious history.
A few days before the cabinet reshuffle, Rajsamand MP Diya Kumari and Rajsamand MLA Deepti Maheshwari had also raised this issue with former Union Culture and Tourism Minister Prahlad Singh Patel and demanded to take cognizance of it at the earliest.
After meeting MP Diya Kumari, Prahlad Singh Patel instructed the ASI to remove these inscriptions immediately. He also said that new inscriptions should be put up with the correct facts. He said that what is right should come in front of everyone, no kind of tampering with history can be allowed.
Let us tell you that on the inscriptions giving information about the historical battle of Haldighati, wrong facts were written showing the Mewari army as inferior. It was written on them that the forces of Maharana Pratap had retreated in the war. These inscriptions in the Battlefield Raktalai located in Rajsamand district have been hurting not only the Rajput society but also the brave martyrs of Mewari army and their glorious sacrifice for decades. Now tourists coming to Haldighati will be able to know the true history of the fierce battle that took place in the sixteenth century between the armies of Akbar and Veer Shiromani Maharana Pratap.
