      .....Why Modi government should destroy Western slavery ( Ghulam) democracy and transform to Communism now???
      1) There is corruption everywhere in India now so India needs communism to control corruptions and improve education system to develop India within 70-80 years times like China now(Because India is a failed state and next Africa already)
      2) There are two types of communist rules or political systems in the World now i) Fake and corrupt communist government like in Nepal now..
      ii) Original Nationalist, strong and pure communist government like in China, Cuba and North Korea now..
      India needs original Nationalist communist government like China and North Korea now to develop India very fast like China....
      3) Indian new communist government should distribute vast useless lands among poor Indian landless people immediately to develop India now....

    प्रिय अरिहंत,
    मैंने शिव वर्मा के साथ आपकी बातचीत देखी और यह बहुत मजेदार और जानकारी से भरी लगी। ऐसा लगा कि शिव वर्मा भारतीय राजाओं की इतिहास में की गई उपलब्धियों के बारे में ठीक से नहीं बोल पाए, खासकर जब विदेशी शासकों की सफलताएं साफ-साफ दिख रही थीं। एक घंटे की चर्चा के दौरान ऐसा लगा कि वे अपनी बात समझाने में कठिनाई महसूस कर रहे थे।
    आपके सवाल बहुत अच्छे और सोच-समझकर पूछे गए थे, खासकर भारत की ब्रिटिश और मुगल ताकतों और अन्य इस्लामी शासकों के खिलाफ कमजोरियों के बारे में। आपने चर्चा को दिलचस्प और महत्वपूर्ण बनाए रखा, जबकि शिव वर्मा सीमित शब्द और ज्ञान के साथ संघर्ष करते नजर आए।
    मुझे लगता है कि आपके कार्यक्रम में और भी लोग बुलाने चाहिए, ताकि इतिहास के सच की गहराई से जांच हो सके। इससे शिव वर्मा जैसे लोगों से और भी अच्छे सवाल पूछे जा सकते हैं और इससे दर्शकों को इतिहास को और अच्छी तरह समझने का मौका मिलेगा।
    यह चर्चा देखने के बाद, मैंने तय किया है कि मैं शिव वर्मा की किताब *योद्धा* नहीं पढ़ूँगा, क्योंकि मुझे लगता है कि इसमें सही जानकारी और गहराई की कमी हो सकती है। चर्चा के दौरान उनके कमजोर तर्क और बचकानी बातें दिखाते हैं कि किताब में शायद ज्यादा महत्वपूर्ण चीजें नहीं होंगी।
    आपका धन्यवाद, कि आपने अपनी बात को इतने अच्छे से रखा और इन महत्वपूर्ण विषयों पर रोशनी डाली। आपने शिव वर्मा के तर्कों की कमजोरियों को अच्छी तरह से दिखाया और मैं आपके शो में और भी रोचक चर्चाओं की प्रतीक्षा कर रहा हूँ।
    धन्यवाद और शुभकामनाएँ,

    Peshwa Balaji Bajirao aka Thorala Bajirao not being mentioned as one of the top 5 generals of India is really weird. He fought 40 battles in his 39 years of age and never lost a single one of them. He was the greatest cavalry general and his tactics are studied by military leaders even today. He traveled to Delhi from Pune with a cavalary of 30,000 in 40 days. After Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, he was the one who took the Indian/Hindu military resistance against foreign invaders to their doorstep. People either ignore or don’t care.
    We don’t learn anything from our own history 🙂

      There was a lot of caste and class oppression in India, people were considered lowly and out of a feeling of revenge they would join hands with the enemy foreign invaders, and only then Indians would get defeated. Morya kings ended discrimination and hence they were successful in ruling whole India, Pakistan and Afghanistan.Even today, if the caste system is eradicated from India, then the unified India of Maurya period can be created.

      You are wrong.
      Guptas were not Vaishyas. Im their inscription they have claimed themselves to be Kshatriya. Today Baniyas uses Gupta as their surname. This started only in the last 250 years. Earlier it was used by Kshatriyas.
      Mauryas were also not shudras. Mauras have claimed themselves Kshatriyas in various inscription and even Buddhists & Jain literature have called them Kshatriyas.
      They didn't favoured Brahmins hence they have called them shudras.
      Modern Indian history writing is full of propaganda by various groups and seldom about truth.

    Dear Arihant,
    Although I have written this comment in Hindi above but for your viewers who are more comfortable in English, I furnish the same in English below.
    I watched your discussion with Shiv Verma, and it was both entertaining and informative. It was clear that Shiv Verma had difficulty defending his views on the achievements of Indian kings, especially when the evidence of foreign rulers' successes was so strong. Throughout the hour-long discussion, he seemed to struggle to justify his position.
    I appreciate your thoughtful and sharp questions, particularly about India's weaknesses against the British, Mughals, and other Islamic rulers. You kept the conversation interesting and relevant, while Shiv Verma appeared to have a hard time with his limited vocabulary and knowledge.
    I think your program would benefit from having multiple guests to explore historical truths more deeply. This would allow for better questioning of perspectives like those of Shiv Verma, and give viewers a chance to understand history more thoroughly.
    After watching the discussion, I've decided not to read Shiv Verma's book *Yodha*, as I suspect it might lack depth and accuracy. His weak arguments and childish excuses during the program suggest that the book might not offer much valuable information.
    Thank you for presenting your points so effectively and shedding light on these important topics. You did a great job highlighting the weaknesses in Shiv Verma's arguments, and I'm looking forward to more interesting discussions on your show.
    Best regards,

    It is absurd to say that before Alexander the Indian kings had restricted mobility. Whether it is Ramayan or Mahabharat, the scope of the epic was all of the Indian subcontinent. Ashwmedh yagna and the concept of Chakravarti samrat was a clear example of quick mobility. River crossings never posed a big problem even in those times.

      By the time of British rule lack of technology and science was definitely an issue but that is to because under islamic rule people were more busy surviving and paying shit loads of taxes.

    It is true that colonial expansion was somewhat limited in its scale from the time of Vasco da Gama's arrival till the Battle of Plassey and picked up pace considerably thereafter. By 1818, which was just 60 years after Plassey, much of the subcontinent had been captured by the British, with the sole exception of the Punjab which held out longer due to Ranjit Singh. The core reason why India was colonised in the second half of the 18th century with relative ease was the spread of the Age of Enlightenment in Europe, particularly in British society which brought in critical thinking, scientific mindset and gathering empirical knowledge about the natural world. Till the biginning of teh 18th century Europe was also feudal and divided in class strata, where religious and sectarian divide was rampant. But the Age of Enlightenment brought about great changes in society, which started ti become more egalitarian and less religious, putting more importance in education and material wealth. This is why the British were keen to gather data and study their colonies in a rational scientific manner, setting up the various surveys which still exists, like the anthropological survey, the trigonometric survey, the botanical survey, the zoological survey, the geological survey, archaeological survey, etc. This knowledge created a huge gap between the Europeans and rest of Asia which remained feudal and disinterested in building knowledge capital, instead hiring Europeans to modernize their societies. This lack of interest to cultivate enlightenment values continues to exist in India and South Asian countries, the reason why they are the least developed parts of Asia (except the war torn countries like Syria, Afghanistan and Yemen).

      My post is in reference to the 1857 related propaganda in Punjab.
      In 1857, the plan of the fighters was to retain Punjab for SIKHS, whereas the rest of the country was to have the Mughal takht in Delhi as a symbolic figurehead of Muslims and the Maratha Peshwa in Kanpur as a symbolic figurehead for Hindus, while regional rulers were to retain internal autonomy.
      In 1857, Rani Jind Kunwar was in Allahabad and she supported the cause. Kuka Sikhs laid down their lives in Punjab against foreign interference of Christianity through Europeans by willingly being hanged.
      However, most modern Sikhs are just a bunch of fools and have no idea how the gora firangi is manipulating his mind.
