It was an Indian, not Wright Brothers, who invented airplane, claims Rajasthan education minister Madan Dilawar

Madan Dilawar claimed that Shivkar Bapuji Talpade invented the airplane before the Wright Brothers, but it was not mentioned in history books due to India being under colonial rule. He also highlighted other Indian inventions like ORS, Lasik eye surgery, and contributions to mathematics. Dilawar stressed the importance of remembering India's rich ancient times.
