Some corrections. Calcutta University was established in 1857. The oldest modern University in the subcontinent, a first after almost 700 years, When the illiterate Turks finished off all Buddhists Univerties from North India. Nalanda, Vikramshila, Odantapuri, Jagadala, Samavihara and Taxashila. The word Hindu is a Persian word for people living on the river Indus (Sindhu with a s h shift becomes Hindu) and rest of the indian subcontinent. Almost 1000 years before the Arabic Prophet invented Islam, the Greeks came to India ( the word India also derive from the river Indus, Sindhu becoming Indus) There Historians wrote extensively about India. You guys can read it up. India being more than 5000 year civilization, the land bounded by Indus river in the west, Himalaya mountains in the north, and sea at the south. Religion is a primitive tribal west asian cult unknown to India. Spirituality yes, philosophy yes, but no religion. As with the Greeks or Chinese. 99.99 Muslims of the indian subcontinent are converted Muslims, ethnically Indians (or Hindu, if this is what you like) Rest 0.01% are Turks. Turks are not one of Indian people. Not native to Indian subcontinent including Afghanistan.
he has made few factual mistakes 1) Calcutta University was not the first university. Nalanda and many other university were there.People from Europe/China used to come there. It was destroyed by Mughals. NALANDA is well document by ancient Chinese Travellers and Indian historians. 2)Yes BHARAT was collection of principle states,but they used to live together .Kings used to marry their daughter in different kingdoms . Tamil Movie CHOLA is coming.It was the most glorious empire for Native Indians
Thank you for your useful comments and watching the video. Thank you for suggesting references. In video we covered only small aspects of ancient India and the India at the time of partioning.
@@sanatandharma8837 I would like to correct Mr. HOODBHOY on few points. He told that there had not been any history of the word "Hindu" and there has never been any such identity as "Hindu" in any history of this land. But the fact is that Going back to the pre-Islamic period in our own country we have many names of our national identity Bhart Varsha , Aryavarta etc. and our dharmaic identity as Sanatan Dharma , Vedic Dharma etc. We find that our ancestors shared in common a name for their homeland. That was Bharatavarśa, which comprised at that time the present day Seistan province of Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, and Bangladesh. They also shared in common a name for the spiritual cultural complex to which they subscribed. That was Sanatana Dharma, which covered Brahmanism, Buddhism, Jainism, and also what are now known as tribal religions. But there is no evidence, literary or epigraphic, that they shared in common a name for themselves as a people. Some Purāṇas say that Bharatavarsa is the land of the bhärati santatih.
@Kraken Thunder He did not mention "Modern". he might be implying which is completely different.. So he is technically incorrect unless he said "Modern" which he did not. Ur assuming things .
@Kraken Thunder yes dear i know i respect prof Hc Verma by heart but i am saying that Pakistan also have good physics teachers but they should approach their subject just like indian teachers.India is our neighbourhood there is no hate for india in my heart because we all are humans
People were not breathing oxygen until the name "oxygen" was given to the breathing element. It does not matter whether Hindu name was there or not, but always the consciousness of Veda was there.
Pervez Hoodbhoy was hoodwinked by leftist historians who wrote history to perpetuate a history that was written by historians who couldn’t read SANSKRIT AND MODI ( nothing to do with PM MODI) both ancient texts. They manufactured history. If Pervez Hoodbhoy an educated person gets his facts wrong then he should have the courage to correct himself
@@universityteacher What reference did Prof take here. He mentioned some so called Prominent Indian historians for his book.

The ancient Greeks were quite familiar with the words Indus" and "Indoi" their way of pronouncing "Sindhu and "Sindhis'". The ancient Arabs, Turks (Sakas, Kuşāņas, etc.), Mongo- lians (Hunas, Kirātas, etc.), and the Chinese were also familiar with the word, sometimes in their own variations on it such as "Shin-tu". It may thus be said that the word Hindu" had acquired a national connotation since the days of the Avesta, although in the eyes of only the foreign- ers. At the same time, it may be noted that the word was oblivious of all distinctions in terms of class, or caste, or religion among the "Hindus" in ancient times. If we talk about the authentic archeology based history of this word. We find that A Kanarese inscription discovered in the Fort of Penugonda (now in Andhra Pradesh) and dated Śaka samvat 1276 (AD 1354) describes Bukka I of Vijayanagara as "hinduraya-suratrāṇa purva-paschima-sam- udrādhipati" , that is, the Sultan among the Hindu kings, and lord of the eastern and western seas.' Next, we have the Satyamangalam (North Arcot District, Tamil Nadu) Copper Plate inscription of Devaraya II dated (AD 1424) in which verse 8 says that "Through the wind (which was produced) by the flapping of the ears of the elephants on the field of battle, the Tulushka (ie Musalman) horsemen experienced the fate of cotton (ie were blown away". Then follows the verse which applauds the king as hinduraya-suratrana-vandivargenavanditah, that is, "the Sultan among the Hindu kings as eulogised by the hards" Two more inscriptions of Devarayva dated AD 1427.
Very comprehensive and informative book review in which I understood the basic concept of two nations theory and the characterisation of sir Syed Ahmad, Quaid and Allama Iqbal. Dhaka was separated and the causes of its separation were logically described. Hard work behind this video is amazing. Prayers
He is one of a wisest person in Pakistan. He prefers to be called by Pervez. However, as in our culture of respect, we call him Pervez sb or Dr Pervez or sir.
It's wrong fact that "Hind" word came from "Sindh". I would like to request honourable prof. Hoodbhoy, "Could you give reference regarding your this claim"
Dear The Prajya: Here is a reference; R Thapar, Imagined Religious Communities? Ancient History and the Modern a Search for Hindu Identity. Modern Asian Studies 23. no 2 (1989): 222 See also Romila Thapar Communalism and the Writing of Indian History, Delhi, Peoples Publishing House (1969)
@@universityteacher It's not only the primary but not authentic source too. It's just opinion of prof. Thapar which she has never given primary source or archeological evidences and written inscriptions.
Dr. Hoodbhoy is quoting Marxist history of India, which has been discredited. Hindus call our religion as Sanatana Dharma, which is based on Vedas, Darshanas, Puranans, Ramayan and Mahabharat. Bharat is a civilizational area connected by religion, rivers and pilgrimage places. It is unfortunate that even a well educated thinker like Dr. Hoodbhoy denies the existence of Indian Civilization, which is the oldest civilization in the world.
No one is denying Indian civilization. We discuss the differences in lives of Hindus and Muslims. You didn't watch full video we praise Indian Scientists. My Indian friends watch first 10 minutes and giving comments.
It was mostly territorial division. Two nation theory is history and history is to learn: causes of divisions and under what environment it happened. Jinnah idea was to create separate Muslim state where Muslims dominate and "dominant community enjoys citizen rights" as historians recall.
Then why did Pakistan kick out more than 25% non Muslims only in west Pakistan if they wanted only dominance. If you doubt my figure approach me or analyze all census before 1941. Pakistanis only love to quote 1951 census when total migration was over. Except from East Punjab there was hardly any migration. Biharis who went to east Pakistan their fate is known.
Hoodbhoy have very limited knowledge about ancient Bharat. Seems like his knowledge about ancient India is coming from Marxists historians who themselves have very limited knowledge about Indian Civilization.
This comment appear again and again from from Indian friends. Dr. Hoodbhoy has nothing added in this regard. Marxist historians were not Muslim, they are mostly Indians. Thapar is one example.
@@universityteacher It has nothing to with being muslim or hindu. Most of Marxist historians are intellectually dishonest, they have written their opinion in name of history. If Dr. Hoodbhoy wants to present true picture of ancient India in his book, he should read some non Marxist historians also
@@universityteacher from 4:00 min Dr. Hoodbhoy have denied the entire existence Indian Civilization. It is true that the term "Hindu" is new and was used to denote natives(non- turks) by muslim rulers but this does not mean we didn't have any Civilizational consciousness. From the Karkota dynasty of Kashmir to the Cholas of Tamil nadu, from the builders of Buddhas of Bamiyan to Ahoms of assam they all were bound by common ethics, civilizational values, art, culture, music and most important sanskrit. And the concepts of Bharat is mentioned in "Rig Veda" (oldest scripture) as land between Himalayas and Indian Ocean where people of different languages reside. This is what Marxist historians have failed to understand, they see India though European lens.

Your contribution is so immense. Sadly, we as a nation do not require honest and genuine intellectuals. We love PSEUDOS in all fields.
