#Raghuveera – A Legend Whose Record Is Erased.

Hours passed & 100s of drafts wasted, but unable to give a proper introduction because I’m finding shortage of words & mixed emotions filled with anger and despair.

He was the President of #JANSANGH when he was Politically
Assassinated.
He was on his way to campaign for Ram Manohar Lohia and Nehru was the Prime Minister.
Our tragedy is that successive governments denying Bharatiyas from knowing about people whose contribution was ENORMOUS but erased so that there's only ONE FAMILY left to worship
Raghuveera before joining Jansangh was Congress leader and a member of Constituent Assembly & 2 time RS member from Congress & left it when Nehru continued Anti National Policies even after being warned that China was not a "Cultural Brother, Rather Expansionist".

Raghu Veera
was born in Rawalpindi on 30 December 1902. He did his MA from Punjab University, and received Ph.D. from London. After coming back he became the Head of the Sanskrit Department of the Sanatan Dharma College, Lahore.
Even before @RSSorg work began in Lahore, RaghuVeera
established Hindu Rakshak Sangh, and used to hold daily drills in DAV College grounds.

The Love for Sanatana Dharma enabled him to join Jansangh decades later.
Raghuveera , coined some 1.50 lakh scientific and parliamentary terms with Sanskrit as the common base just like
Latin is for European languages. His Greater English-Hindi Dictionary remains his fundamental contribution to the cause of Indian languages

Raghuveera aimed to re-establish Bharat as Jagat Guru by researching, excavating, collecting an estimated
THREE LAKH SANSKRIT MANUSCRIPTS
as the relics of the glorious work of the Hindu & Buddhist Sanyasis, spread worldwide & especially in China, Mongolia & South East Asia

He had mastered many languages including Hindi, Sanskrit, Persian, Arabic, English, Urdu, Bengali, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and Punjabi.

He was
elected first to the Constituent Assembly in 1948 and then to the Rajya Sabha in 1952 and 1957.

In 1948 he clashed with Nehru on the question of Sheikh Abdullah's repressive policies against Hindu's of Jammu Kashmir represented by Praja Parishad.

Request from RajendraPrasad
made him stay back with Congress but he conveyed Sheikh Abdullah wanted Islamiat and not Democracy

In 1956, Nehru Govt sent Raghuveera on a 1 month Cultural Tour for China, but Raghuveera took 3 months to finish it.
When he came back, he had 300 Wooden Box containing rarest of
Manuscripts, and Bharatiya antiques.
He also brought home the message that CHINA MUST NEVER BE TRUSTED.

6 years before the China war he told Nehru that his so called "Cultural Bhaai" was in reality an expansionist, imperialist country only, and that the falsehood of
'Hindi Chini Bhai Bhai' was no more than a sherbet laced with the deadly poison, potassium cyanide.

In the Party debates, Dr Raghuveer PLEADED with Nehru for large Anti-China, Anti-Communist Front with the Buddhist countries of South-East Asia.
(think what would have happened
if Nehru considered Raghuveer's suggestion)
Nehru never agreed, proving his wrongs as his rights was
more important than Bharat.
Infact, he forgot he was the Prime Minister, all he wanted was his alter ego to get satisfied.

Dr Raghuveer, disgusted, ultimately resigned on
December 1960 when the Chinese danger loomed large as the Government of Nehru just watched aimlessly.

In politics Dr. Raghuvira was deeply influenced by Lala Lajpat Rai's ideals and thoughts. Jansangh invited Dr Raghuveer & he happily accepted the offer as Dr Raghuveer
believed Jansangh shared the same ideology of Lala Lajpat Rai.

There were great expectations when such a luminary with a grand Hindu cultural vision joined the Jana Sangh in early 1961. His gloomy prophecies about China came true within a year in the Chinese attack.
Dr Ram Manohar Lohia stood in a by election from Farrukkabad and on 14-May-1963, Dr Raghuveer was going to campaign for Lohia,

The car he was travelling met with an accident and Dr Raghuveera WAS SILENCED.
(WHO BENEFITED BY HIS DEATH?)

The words we daily use like "Sachiv",
"Sachivalay", "Doordarshan" was introduced by him.

Dr Raghuveera established International Academy of Indian Culture named 'Saraswati Vihar'. This Vihar was Dr. Raghuvira's personal centre for Research work in Bharatiya Culture, Literature And Religion.

Although it was first
established at Lahore in 1932, but foreseeing the division Dr Raghuveera had shifted the venue of the Saraswati Vihar to Nagpur in 1946 just a year before the bloody Partition of India.

It is very sad to note that despite knowing the
unchallenging contributions of this great
genius neither Congress Government nor the @BJP4India Government while in power did anything to bestow due respect to Professor Dr. Raghuveera.

Please, DO NOT FORGET this, Top 3 Jansangh leaders were killed mysteriously under Congress regime.
