We need to get back lions of the Ashoka regime

It was pride that changed angels into devils. It is humility that makes men angels. This is the picture of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi displayed for distorting the National Emblem by replacing the graceful and confident lions of the Ashoka regime with the aggressive posture of three menacing lions with bared fangs atop the New Parliament building adding credit to the unveiling by the Prime Minister. I wonder if alive how the former late prime minister of Japan Shinzo Abe would have reacted. Putin would have appreciated the ceremony, as he carries the same ideology “ The prime minister unveiling the National Emblem without inviting the members of the Indian Parliament is totally undemocratic and an insult to the nation. Is it possible or would it be possible for the people to get united like the Lankans to bring down Modi emblem and replace it with our old glory of the Ashoka regime? I sincerely hope all the states in India express solidarity and show that India is one and not a one-man show.
