Secular India: Anti Muslim Shivaji statue to guard Bombay shores


While Shanghai is building skyscrapers, and creating a modern city the envy of the world, Mumbai is busy in creating rift among the Muslims and Hindus. Mumbai is to sport another new symbol of Islamphobia and bigotry–the statue of Shivaji, a guerrilla fighter from the South that harassed Mughal forces by hit and run attacks. Could Muslims return the favor this time?

Mumbai to build statue taller than Lady LibertyMUMBAI: Mumbai plans to erect a statue of a Hindu warrior king off the city’s shore in the Arabian Sea that will be taller than the Statue of Liberty, government officials said on Tuesday. India’s financial capital has consciously modelled its development on that of Shanghai, but its leaders admit to sometimes coveting aspects of Western metropolises too. “It is true that the Statue of Liberty was perhaps an inspiration a little bit,” said Thanksy Thekkekara, the principal secretary of the government of Maharashtra, of which Mumbai is the capital. While almost equally massive, the two statues may prove different in their symbolism. Mumbai’s statue will depict Shivaji Bhosle, also known as Chhatrapati Shivaji, revered by many in western India as a warrior who fought the Mughal empire and annexed land from its Muslim rulers in the 17th century. The planned statue is about 309 feet (94m) tall, including its pedestal, Thekkekara said. The Statue of Liberty measures 305 feet (93m) from the ground to the tip of her torch.
