Interpretation of Vedic texts by Indologists have distorted the Indra & Vrttra that episode by giving it a caste and race colour. Using the fake Aryan-Dravidian invasion theory, Vrttra is said to be in charge of the tribes who were the mulnivsis before the 'fair' Aryans invaded. The fight between Vrtra and Indra (portrayed as the God of the Aryans) is interpreted through race theories viewed from a modern historical perspective placing it in ra and concluding that Indra is a historical person - one should very well see the import of these Rig Veda mantras.

The fight between Vrttra and Indra (portrayed as the God of the Aryans) is interpreted through race theories concluding that Indra is a historical person.Indra, '''the most amazing power and energy''' assuming different kinds of forms for the sake of well-being of the universe, as explained in the Rig Veda mantras. Therefore the battle between Indra and Vrttra is symbolically very significant and must be seen from this perspective rather than the Indological historic viewpoint.  

Many Rig Veda mantras depict that Vrttra was killed and other mantras call it a truce between Indra and Vrtra established, whereby Vrttra exists in the form of hunger. In this perspective, the battle between Indra and Vrttra is eternal and Vrttra is not killed once and for all.  <blockquote>तव च्यौत्नानि वज्रहस्त तानि नव यत्पुरो नवतिं च सद्यः | निवेशने शततमाविवेषीरहञ्च वर्त्रं नमुचिमुताहन् || (Rig Veda. 7.19.5.)</blockquote><blockquote>Meaning : With Vajraayudha in his hands, the invincible power, Indra swiftly destroyed 99 of the 100 places and captured the likes of Vrttra and Namuchi in his hundredth attempt.</blockquote>
