ScienceNCERT Book Highlights Goddess Worship in Indian Kings' Warfare
The new NCERT Class 9 social science textbook, "Understanding Society India and Beyond-Part 2," details how Indian kings and princes since the 7th century invoked goddesses like Kali, Durga, and Bhavani as protectors during conflicts. It cites examples such as Shivaji, Bastar's Annamaraja, and Vijayanagara's Kumara Kampana, who were believed to have received swords from goddesses for battles.
