Rani Laxmi Bai Doesn’t Fall In Battle; Establishes A Matriarchal Indian Society Later In Life | Pranay Patwardhan & Nikita Deshpande
The Rani of Jhansi forever changed India. The matriarchal order of society that she established has brought peace and prosperity to our country. Meanwhile, the West has succeeded in all realms except the political: communism has fallen and democracy is falling short. Indian leaders of the present day realise that Laxmi Bai’s progressive philosophy can be a beacon in dark times. With a thrust for soft power in mind, the government commissions a giant Matryoshka doll modeled after the Rani, one that will signify her values of equality, strength, liberty, and justice—and earn India much-needed international clout. Factory workers are now putting their finishing touches on the behemoth, which will be unveiled in a month’s time at the biennial United Nations Convention.
