Nhamaskhar brothers and sisters
First of all would like to say, this is a top website. So much crap out there said against Hindus and India in general, it's refreshing to see a website that tackles the lies and censorship of false Indian history.
Basically, as most of you are probably aware, there has been especially in the past few years, many Indian Tribal groups claiming to be descendents of the shaka's and kushans. One such group r the jats. Most of the arguments they've put forward, in support of being foreign to India r baseless and can be ripped apart and challenged with ease. However, along with this group, others such as gujjars, ahirs, rajputs and so on have started to claim foreign descent. Again, all of their arguments in favour of these claims r easily challanged and ripped apart.
However, my question is. In many history books/websites, we hear of these shaka's and kushans invading India. First of all, to what extent is this true? Most of this history stems from racist views held by colonial minds in order to degrade India's true history. From my own research, what i find hard to understand is, if these shaka's and kushana's did invade, where r they now? What style of archeitecture did they leave? What was their language and what happened to their scripts? It seems to be the case, that these invading groups lost all their culture, and yet were supposed to be the dominant group therefore should have been the one's with the dominant culture.
Ive been reading a book by Sandhya Jain about various Indian tribes. In the book, their is a chapter on various tribes that fought on both sides of the MahaBharat war. In this list r mentioned shaka's and huns. Could these shaka's and huns have been native to India.?
Will be good to hear ur opinions and views.
