Vinod Bansal
Vinod Bansal is a spokesperson for the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), a prominent Hindu nationalist organization in India. He has been vocal in advocating for the revision of historical narratives in Indian textbooks, particularly regarding the portrayal of Mughal rulers. Recently, Bansal supported the National Council of Educational Research and Training's (NCERT) alleged decision to drop the title 'Great' from Mughal emperor Akbar, arguing that such glorification distorts history and overlooks the achievements of other historical figures, such as Maharana Pratap.
