No one can stop us from rewriting history to free it from distortions: Shah

New Delhi, Nov 24 (PTI) Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said no one can stop rewriting of history to free it from “distortions” as he urged academicians to research and write about 30 great Indian empires and 300 warriors who showed exemplary valour to fight for the motherland.

The home minister said had it not been for Veer Lachit Barphukan, the Northeast would not have been a part of India. He was addressing a plenary session of the 400th birth anniversary celebrations of the legendary Ahom general.

He protected not only Northeast India but the entire Southeast Asia from religious fanatic Aurangzeb, Shah said.
