KNOW ABOUT INDIAN HISTORY


India is land of ancient civilization. India's social, economic, and cultural configurations are the products of a long process of regional expansion. Indian history begins with the birth of the Indus Valley Civilization and the coming of the Aryans.

People say that history repeats itself but in India's case it would be an exaggeration. Even though being the oldest nation in the world her history is unique in every stage, without showing any repetition. Indian History is one of the most largest and complicated of its kind in the world. Each region of the nation has its own separate history. Whether its Delhi in the north, Tamil Nadu in south or Kamarupa in the east, each has a separate historical background, yet they are joined by common bond.

"India is the cradle of human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grandmother of tradition. Our most valuable and most astrictive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only! "


Mark Twain.

India is a land of great variety and its unique and ancient civilization has been a great unifying factor. The vast number of diverse faiths, beliefs, religions, lifestyles, languages etc. may confound a stranger, but in essence they represent the different aspects of one nation as do the petals of a lotus flower in bloom.

However social and economic inequalities, communal clashes can put a challenge to prevailing national harmony in India. Thus, unity among religions, communities, etc. is an absolute necessity. Any clash between communities can hinder the national harmony.
