Aurangzeb, who ruled from 1658 to 1707, is often remembered for his aggressive military campaigns and policies that were detrimental to the cultural fabric of the region. Shinde emphasized that glorifying such figures only serves to undermine the sacrifices made by those who fought against tyranny.
