The part on Twitter came out to support Muntashir and argued that the author only reminded people of the “actual history” of the country and Mughal.
Agnihotri movie maker tweeted, “Manoj Muntashirs always expresses his perspective without fear in his poetry and public discourse.
If you stupid does not mean he has changed suddenly.”
In his video, Muntashir also refers to the names of the gods issued from the history textbook and asks how people can call Emperor Mughal “King Noble” when they have “people who are slaughtered” on behalf of religion.
He said people had to choose their heroes and criminals without biased caste.
