Absolutely! In fact Indian government must learn lessons from what Chinese communist goverment did a few decades back. At one time only Europeans were supposed to be the Chinese civilization experts. but starting from 1960s, China government funded major archeological and historical projects on all levels, including the educational corrections.
So, at one time, the history of China was also full of derogatory mis-information about their ancestors, and vastly deprived of grace. Look at the Chinese history now, including in Western universities. This happened only after their government took active interest in it, and got Chinese people themselves to do their own relearch in subjects of Chinese civilization. Now they have proved that agriculture was a native invention of China, and not taought to them by Steppe clans, and so on.
I had read some article about it some time back. I will try to find and reproduce it here.
