There is an urgent need to dispel the manufactured cotton-candy discourse on the Khilafat
Movement. Make no mistake; the Khilafat Movement has relevance because the mindset that set it
in motion 100 years ago is still at work. This mindset calls for a religiously sanctioned return of
civilization to a seventh-century environment. Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it.
Equally true, those who falsify history may not live to repeat it. It’s time to call the bluff!
Dr Shreerang Godbole has called off this bluff in a series of articles published initially on www.news18.com and www.vijayvaani.com.
