[edit] Vandalism of India gate

Its pretty sad that the current generation of Indians doesnt respect the sacrifices made by our forefathers who shed their blood. Perhaps thats why this great monument is being vandalized by the current generation of disrespectful Indians who have no respect for the soldiers who died for India.

[edit] India Gate

there is mention soldier name which sacrifyce our life. i think that the some of new generation is still respecting the sacrifices engraved on the india gate,as i am one of them. people joining the army and in other fields do realize their importance and do things benefitable for them and for the country.....we love india and and our forefathers.

[edit] Descriptive Error?

If memory serves me, the names inscribed on India Gate honor all who died fighting various wars of the colonial era, whether British or Indian. The current description makes it seem as if India Gate is a gesture of British magnanimity and appreciation for Indian contributions alone. An alternative reading would render India Gate a monument to those who sided with the imperial masters in external conflicts forced upon a native populace by those masters.

[edit] Arc De Triomphe

Is it based on the Arc De Triomphe? It does bear a striking resemblance to it! If so shouldn't this be mentioned! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.213.112.110 (talk • contribs)
