India Gate is not our legacy; it is a stain on our collective conscience.
We may not believe it when someone tells us that the "India Gate" in Delhi, India's capital, is a stain on all of our minds, but it is true.
The present Namdhari Guru, Thakur Dalip Singh ji, thinks that the British built the India Gate and Gateway of India on Indian Territory as a symbol of servitude. Both of these structures should be demolished and turned into a symbol of Indian independence.
Foreign invaders (Muslims and British) assaulted our land of India from time to time and made us their slaves. However, we Indians have been living in a free country for the previous 75 years. Prior to this, the British ruled over us Indians for about 200 years. During this time, the British constructed several historic buildings and other structures on Indian Territory for example, Parliament House, Rashtrapati Bhavan, India Gate, Gateway of India, Victoria Memorial, St. Mary's Church, and so on. Some of these are a stain on our minds as Indians. However, we are proudly displaying them to the people out of ignorance, thinking them to be our history.
Even though we were liberated from the British, we were unable to remove the traces of slavery left by them. It's remarkable that no Indian has ever objected to it. The British-built India Gate and Gateway of India, both on Indian land, are symbols of slavery. These relics of enslavement must be eliminated. It is also critical to understand and embrace the harsh truth of these indicators in order for our mind to become a remover of them.
Why is India Gate in Delhi a stigma in the minds of Indians?
The British erected India Gate (Delhi) in remembrance and homage of those British Bhagat Indian traitors who subjugated their nation by slaughtering their compatriots. When the British arrived in India, they brought just a tiny force; the rest of the army was built by enlisting individuals from our nation who did the British's work; they were traitors to the country. While working for the British, the people of our country murdered their compatriots and turned India into a British colony. This individual was likewise a traitor to the country. Those who, like an Indian, travelled overseas while working for the British for money, slaughtered their compatriots there, and made their nation a slave of the British, were also traitors to the country.
These traitors' names are inscribed on the India Gate. Country lovers, do you believe that monument may be regarded an Indian heritage? The sun symbol on India Gate is not our sun god's sun sign. This sun sign represents the fact that the British sun never set from east to west over the British Empire.
As a result, India Gate and the Gateway of India, the iconic symbols of slavery, should be demolished, and India's one-of-a-kind freedom monument should be constructed instead. There are indications of freedom in our nation, but no unique symbol of Indian independence. The remainder of the countries have abandoned the stigma scars left by foreign conquerors on autonomous territory. But we Indians have carefully preserved them and proudly display them as well.
The pillar of Emperor Ashoka is a unique emblem of India. At the site of India Gate, a tower or turret modelled like Emperor Ashoka's pillar should be constructed. Along with it, a monument resembling a map of India was constructed on one side of the freedom warriors (those who died for the country's independence with patriotism prior to 1947). For example, images and titles of Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Shaheed Kartar Singh Sarabha, Rajguru, Subhash Chandra Bose, and others should be lighted, and films on nationalists should be shown on huge screens.
Note: The notion of destroying India Gate and the Gateway of India is entirely mine (Thakur Dalip Singh Present Namdhari Guru) and my sect's autonomous stance. No religious or political body can protest to the collapse of India Gate, the terrible emblem of slavery. Because this stigma affects all Indians. Jai Bharat
