On this Special Report, the focus is on the political face-off over the Somnath Temple’s history as India marks 1,000 years since Mehmood of Ghazni’s attack. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has hailed the temple as a symbol of India’s resilience and the ‘Somnath Swabhiman Parv’, while taking a jibe at former PM Jawaharlal Nehru’s stance in 1951. The Congress accuses the BJP of politicizing history to score points. On India First, Anchor Gaurav Sawant debates the issue with BJP’s Tuhin Sinha and Congress’s Mahima Singh. Sinha argues the Congress ‘never took pride in our civilizational identities’, while Singh counters that Nehru supported the temple’s rebuilding but opposed state funding, citing historical correspondence with Dr. Rajendra Prasad.
