Kaushal,
Why should our self esteem depend on what people think of Mongol Pandey or what people think of the 1857 event. Is our self esteem so fragile? Haven't we won in the end? The British had to leave. We are going to be one of the world's most important nations in a few decades. We should now be confident enough to take a dispassionate look at our past - come what may. Only the strong can do it.
