One of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel's many obligations on India is- bringing Hyderabad in India thereby saving Hydearabadi Hindus from the atrocities of the then ruler.
Savarkar quotes Ravana saying, “What? To abduct and rape the womenfolk of the enemy, do you call it irreligious? It is Parodharmah, the greatest duty!” The actual text quotes in Sanskrit as राक्षसांनां परो; धर्म: परदारा विघर्षणम्
However, what the Scroll writer conveniently ignores is “राक्षसांनां”. According to the quoted statement, it’s the duty of a demon/monster.
If only, Mahatama Gandhi and Jawahar Lal Nehru would have read and understood Indian scriptures more accurately, perhaps India would not have been facing this crisis today. Not fighting for 'Dharma' is same as perpetuating 'Adharma'.
This is why if India had a strong leader like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel or Subash Chandra Bose or Bhimrao Ambedkar at the helm during the time, things would have been different.
