संवाद # 194: From Alexander Vs Porus to 1857, India's military history explained by Shiv Kunal Verma

Shiv Kunal Verma is a journalist, a filmmaker, and a writer. He worked briefly with India Today, the Associated Press, and Sanctuary Films before he teamed up with his associate Dipti Bhalla and formed KaleidoIndia, under whose banner some classic films like Salt of the Earth and Standard Bearers were shot and produced.
In 1999, he filmed the Kargil War and, in the last decade and a half, has authored some exceptional books that include the Northeast Trilogy, 1962: The War That Wasn’t, and 1965: A Western Sunrise. He is now working on the seminal Value Education Program for schools that aims at bringing India to Indians especially at the school and college levels. His latest book 'Yodha: Illustrated Military History of India Volume 1' is a step in this direction.

    You said that Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj never had any spectacular victory againts Aurangzeb. Compare the military and economic strength of both. It was battle of wits between both. The fact that Aurgzeb had to leave Agra/Delhi and live in Maharashtra for 27 years and die in peanory and Marathas could establish a powerful empire was a comple defeate of Mughals and Aurangzeb.

They have 3 fully functioning states of their own which are Meghalaya, Mizoram and Nagaland. Along with that they have good numbers in Manipur, Goa, Punjab and Kerela. A "minority" can't be so powerful that it can have 3 states of their own along with significant numbers in other states. Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Sindhi, Telugu, Tamil and Malayali are all being converted. Descendants of Subhash Chandra Bose left Hindu culture and they converted. So, Hindus were unable to save the descendants of their own Freedom Leaders. The same goes with Sikhs too but, Sikhs would somehow manage but not Hindus because Hindus are feminine. They glorify celebrities and entertainers more than their cultural heroes or saints.

Sects like Kuka/Namdhari were pretty clear about what is going on in the country. The wife of Ranjeet Singh, Jind Kunwar was imprisoned in Allahabad at that time and she had written a letter to Jammu darbar to support 1857.

    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 🙂

    Say what you want about the British or their clever, motivated misuse of things like "Martial Races" (which I don't find to be completely untrue) - they did us a massive favor by forcibly uniting a bunch of excellent, valiant fighting groups who spent centuries fighting like cats and dogs amongst themselves. Then they added formal organization and discipline, modern military tactics, a scholarly culture, and cutting edge military technology. And today there probably isn't any Army out there that's truly, convincingly better than them.

    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).

    What kind of discussion is this ? whether one admires Maharana Pratap or not but can anybody quote guerilla warfare in India before pratap used it effectively to vacate mewar of Mughal army . No mention of his 24 years multiple battles with Mughals . Leave alone talking about Haldi ghati battle which is considered Thermopylae of India by European historians too. They are talking about aurangzeb but not discussing why he was not able to win against Maharana Raj singh of udaipur . Not talking about how Rana kumbha was victorious in all the battles and got such a mighty kumbhalgarh fort built with longest 36 kms wall of any Indian fort . Rawalpindi got its name from Great Bappa Rawal who had his military frontiers till there . What historical books are the source of this shiv Kunal Verma book . He writes about porus and Alexander war with no documents available .but ignores even the muslims historian accounts of their defeat in battles of rajasthan .

    There is difference between being well informed and being a historian. Now a days it seems like fashion to address oneself - 'historian'. It's a specialized discipline with decades of training and research behind it. These fashionable historians sound so apologetic and expert in making convenient excuses to get "feel good" feeling.

    @@mantajsinghdhillon8840 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.

    Lack of scientific temper? When India was attacked by islamic invaders we were doing all right in science and maths . The decrea in patronage to such schools starts after islamic invasions . 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. The last major discovery from maths in maths was from Kerala , and it was calculs initials. This was just before full blown islamic rule. Unless you're trying to tell me it was lack of scientific temper in war tactics , which could be possible, prithvi raj chauhan let go of mohmad ghorie , so did a queen when ghorie tried to attack again . But ghorie learnt our tactics we didn't bother changing it or being preamptive .
