1309 YEARS AND COUNTING

1309 YEARS AND COUNTING

It is historically incorrect to say that India was under foreign rule for 190 years (1757--1947). It is a blatant lie. Ever since Sindh fell to Muhammad Bin Qasim in 712 CE we have been under foreign rule. Even today Pakistan and Bangladesh are in the grip of that alien ideology that had assaulted India for centuries. The Partition of India has perpetuated that foreign rule, that of alien ideology. In India a vast section is under the thraldom of that expansionist ideology. India, truly, has been a wounded civilisation simply because we have chosen and yet choose to remain ignorant of our adversary's ideology.
