One should not change what history is. One can have their view either good or bad but changing it decreases its moral. Like the story Ramayan, people give their view why Ram left Sita either in a good or bad way but they don’t change the incident. To the same way, we also should not change with History. ‘People who change the story of past are the one who doesn’t have an ability to make their own History.
