Today, we honor the birth anniversary of Maharana Pratap, the warrior who chose the rugged Aravallis over a golden cage.

It took the Kakatiyas years to carve. It took a single bulldozer one day to erase.

In Khanapur, Warangal, an 800-year-old Shiva temple from the Kakatiya era has been razed to the ground. The justification? To make way for a new integrated school.

What is the point of a school built on the literal erasure of our heritage? We are teaching the next generation from textbooks while destroying the primary sources of their history right outside the classroom window.

India possesses a density of heritage that no other nation can claim, yet we often treat it with a unique brand of apathy. Why is the political class so consistently indifferent to these anchors of our culture?

This isn't just a "planning error." It reflects a deeper, systemic desire to disconnect the masses from their roots. When the state treats native Hindu civilization as an obstacle rather than a foundation, this hatred flows down into our institutions, leading to the "extraction" of our shared memory.

Restoration was an option. Designing the school around the heritage site was an option. Instead, the path of destruction was chosen. When we level these structures, we aren't just losing stones; we are losing the physical evidence of our ancestors' engineering, art, and spirit.

We must ask: Who is being served by this erasure? And what will be left for us to inherit once the bulldozers are done?

Imagine the entire population of Gaza, now multiply it by 5.

That was the staggering scale of the human catastrophe in 1971. While the world chose to look away, 10 million people fought for their lives in the rain-soaked, muddy camps of West Bengal, Tripura, Meghalaya, and Assam.

The British left in 1947, but their most extractive laws never did.

While other faiths enjoy Constitutional autonomy, Hindu temples are being treated like a State-run ATM. From the 1817 Madras Regulation to the 2026 Sabarimala scandals. Secular Indian State legally Steals from Hindu Temples

Is it secularism, or a modern-day Jizya?
