A massive effort of rewriting Indian history from our traditional perspective was done between 1951 and 2003. This was by the doyen of cultural renaissance, the late Dr KM Munshi, who was also a noted litterateur, educationist, historian, freedom fighter and close associate of Patel. In 1938, Munshi founded the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, which has done much to spread awareness of our culture.
