Rajaji Replaces Lutyens: Decolonise Or Delete History?

Описание: The bust of British architect Edwin Lutyens has been replaced with that of the first and only Indian Governor-General Chakravarti Rajagopalachari at Rashtrapati Bhavan, in a defining move to shed the country's colonial past.

President Droupadi Murmu unveiled Rajagopalachari bust at the Rashtrapati Bhavan Cultural Centre during the Rajaji Utsav this morning. Earlier, at that spot, stood a bust of Lutyens, the chief architect of New Delhi, where lies the power corridors of India. This part of the capital is often referred to as Lutyens' Delhi.
