INCISIVE discussions on education, culture, and governance captivated the audience as scholars articulated their vision on the second day of the 13th edition of the ThinkEdu Conclave 2025 hosted by The New Indian Express in Chennai.

With a focus on history, technology, morality, and skilling, speakers addressed India's pressing challenges and opportunities at the event, presented by SASTRA University, on Tuesday.

Economist Sanjeev Sanyal opened the day by revisiting 'Lost History,' highlighting neglected revolutionaries like Mewa Singh Lopoke and VVS Aiyar. He argued for rewriting the 'biased colonial narratives'.

Author Vikram Sampath expanded on this, examining polarising figures like Tipu Sultan and Veer Savarkar and calling for diverse perspectives in decoding history.
