Sources said with a renewed mandate, the UPA government was expected to look at the way NDA appointees to cultural institutions allegedly tweaked evidence to suit the RSS’s version of history.

For example, in 2000, <b>the National Museum in its catalogue for a new Harappan gallery, had endorsed the Sangh’s claim that the Harappan and Vedic civilisations were one and the same. The idea, sources said, was to demonstrate the “indigenity” of Hinduism vis-à-vis Islam and Christianity.</b>

<b>The claim was based on a letter written by N.S. Rajaram who had co-authored a book, The Deciphered Indus Script. The book was debunked by well-known Indologist Michael Witzel and comparative historian Steve Farmer </b><!--emo&:roll--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ROTFL.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='ROTFL.gif' /><!--endemo-->  <!--emo&:roll--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ROTFL.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='ROTFL.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
