Delhi’s Aurangzeb Road Renamed After Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam

[Perpendicular]

Something good came out of AAP, at last.

 

[AnnoyingOrange]

Of course their is a muslim specific history in the sub continent, the fact that is part of the greater sub continent history is neither here or there

Muslim specific piece of history and Muslim History are two different things... in fact Muslim history is a misnomer...

 

[Makaramarma]

Do you even know where Aurangzeb was born?...
He was born in what now is Indian state of Gujarat...so you cant even claim him to be a Pakistani.... damn..

Isn't that where Jinnah was born ?

 

[cloud_9]

How about renaming Chennai's Airport name or is it just reserved for some future fake Gandhi ?

Your just splitting hairs


Every muslim of the sub continent is the inheritor of the 1000+ years of muslim history and presence in the sub continent

Whether part of that history is good or bad dosent matter its what makes us who we are

So from Razia to Bin Qasim, Tipu to Akbar, Aurengzeb to Tamerlane its all part of muslims


Its only since partition can the muslims of various countries not claim the others history in making

 

[Horatio]

Wow now its like Aurengzeb didn't exist

All those destroyed temples must be a myth


Aurengzeb will live on in the memories of all muslims of sub continent, as will Akbar, or Shah Jahan or Razia Sultana

Good or bad this is the cumulative history of the muslims of the Sub continent

I think you are reading to much into it, this is about people honoring and remembering a person who has done a lot for his country and they chose to do so by renaming a road after him, it has nothing to with religion. And its just a bloody road mate not a 2000 year old relic of insurmountable historic value..... If its any consolation to you the late Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam was a Muslim too.

Thats' what I am saying... they are a part of Subcontinent History...There is a piece in Subcontinent history that was Muslim specific.... just like thre is a piece of Subcontinent History that is British specific... and a large part of History that is now called Hindu specific history.

 

[Makaramarma]

WTF.

NDMC is New Delhi Municipal Commission and the Delhi Municipality is run by BJP.

New Delhi MP Meenakshi Lekhi named NDMC chairperson | The Indian Express

 

[SURYA-1]

Aurangeb, Taimur, Tipu all were terrorists .

 

[Horatio]

Aurengzeb was an emperor and a part of muslim history in india

Yes he was, and we Indians aren't complaining about the new name are we? Case closed. I am not going to discuss history.

Great name Ganesh Road or flying monkey road after Kalam

That's hardly your prerogative or your business, you are not a citizen of India. Move on, I don't see any reason why you are so irked about a road being renamed in India, a road which you don't even use to begin with.

 

[third eye]

Unfortunate

A political decision no doubt.
