Thats British India. Today's India is not British India. You should have created a word for your own country instead of keeping the name invaders gave to you. British India was dead in August 14, 1947. Two new nations were created then, Pakistan and bharat.


British India??? :what: What is british India??? It was India, Before british It was ruled by Maratha, Prior to that Mughal/Muslims, before that Hindu dynasties.. From where you read such junkie?? Pakistani historians are out of there mind...

Are yiu writing contemporary history??? Don't play with hostory.. We are not Madarsa educated i%%%%% here.

Read what I said again:

All Pakistanis with Hindu and Sikh ancestry (like myself) are living in India now. Last time I checked, Pakistan has like 1% Hindus left, soon to be extinct probably. In 1947, close to 30% of Pakistan was non-Muslim, made up of Hindus and Sikhs who migrated to India. So yes, IVC not only culturally and religiously India's, but by ancestry as well.

I am not trying to persuade you that we are the same, we (the successors of Indus civlization) and Pakistanis are worlds apart. Show me one post where I said that Pakistanis worship idols and speak Sanskrit like the Indus Valley Civilization people did, or how the current people of India still do.
I replied to you on the other thread and I'll say it here again; east Pakistan always had majority of the Hindus, so when they separated obviously the number went down. Also after even after partition, people were still migrating. So many Muslims came to Pakistan from india after 1947 and many hindus came to india from Pakistan after 1947

Man is that what the history books in Pakistan say :rofl:

Yes Hinduism was created in Sindh Province of Pakistan. Buddhism was created in Nepal. That doesn't mean Nepal belongs to all Buddhists everywhere. Sindh is a Muslim majority province, it does not matter what their ancestors believed in thousands of years ago. Even people of Mecca believed in a pagan belief like hinduism before Islam was revealed to them.

loll russia was born in 1991 and china in 1949 lolll crazy pplllll

Russians were ruling their Soviet empire. Chinese were ruling their Chinese empires. British were ruling their British India empire and that empire collapsed in 1947.

indians have way too much Inferiority complex.

c. 486 BCE Hidush Naksh-i-Rustam "Says Darius the King: By the grace of Ormazd these (are) the countries which I have acquired besides Persia. I have established my power over them. They have brought tribute to me. That which has been said to them by me they have done. They have obeyed my law. Medea... Arachotia (Harauvatish), Sattagydia (Thatagush), Gandaria (Gadára), India (Hidush)...."

c. 440 BCE India Herodotus "Eastward of India lies a tract which is entirely sand. Indeed, of all the inhabitants of Asia, concerning whom anything is known, the Indians dwell nearest to the east, and the rising of the Sun."

c. 300 BCE India/Indikē Megasthenes "India then being four-sided in plan, the side which looks to the Orient and that to the South, the Great Sea compasseth; that towards the Arctic is divided by the mountain chain of Hēmōdus from Scythia, inhabited by that tribe of Scythians who are called Sakai; and on the fourth side, turned towards the West, the Indus marks the boundary, the biggest or nearly so of all rivers after the Nile."

c. 140. Indoi, Indou Arrian "The boundary of the land of India towards the north is Mount Taurus. It is not still called Taurus in this land; but Taurus begins from the sea over against Pamphylia and Lycia and Cilicia; and reaches as far as the Eastern Ocean, running right across Asia. But the mountain has different names in different places; in one, Parapamisus, in another Hemodus; elsewhere it is called Imaon, and perhaps has all sorts of other names; but the Macedonians who fought with Alexander called it Caucasus; another Caucasus, that is, not the Scythian; so that the story ran that Alexander came even to the far side of the Caucasus. The western part of India is bounded by the river Indus right down to the ocean, where the river runs out by two mouths, not joined together as are the five mouths of the Ister; but like those of the Nile, by which the Egyptian delta is formed; thus also the Indian delta is formed by the river Indus, not less than the Egyptian; and this in the Indian tongue is called Pattala. Towards the south this ocean bounds the land of India, and eastward the sea itself is the boundary. The southern part near Pattala and the mouths of the Indus were surveyed by Alexander and Macedonians, and many Greeks; as for the eastern part, Alexander did not traverse this beyond the river Hyphasis. A few historians have described the parts which are this side of the Ganges and where are the mouths of the Ganges and the city of Palimbothra, the greatest Indian city on the Ganges. (...) The Indian rivers are greater than any others in Asia; greatest are the Ganges and the Indus, whence the land gets its name; each of these is greater than the Nile of Egypt and the Scythian Ister, even were these put together; my own idea is that even the Acesines is greater than the Ister and the Nile, where the Acesines having taken in the Hydaspes, Hydraotes, and Hyphasis, runs into the Indus, so that its breadth there becomes thirty stades. Possibly also other greater rivers run through the land of India."
First century CE to 400 CE Bhāratavarṣa (realm of Bhārata)[9][10][11] Viṣṇu Purāṇa (विष्णु पुराण) "उत्तरं यत्समुद्रस्य हिमाद्रेश्चैव दक्षिणम् ।
वर्षं तद् भारतं नाम भारती यत्र संततिः ।।"
i.e. "The country (varṣam) that lies north of the ocean and south of the snowy mountains is called Bhāratam; there dwell the descendants of Bharata."

c. 590. Hind Istakhri "As for the land of the Hind it is bounded on the East by the Persian Sea (i.e. the Indian Ocean), on the W. and S. by the countries of Islām, and on the N. by the Chinese Empire. . . . The length of the land of the Hind from the government of Mokrān, the country of Mansūra and Bodha and the rest of Sind, till thou comest to Kannūj and thence passest on to Tibet, is about 4 months, and its breadth from the Indian Ocean to the country of Kannūj about three months."

c. 650 Five Indies Xuanzang "The circumference of 五印 (Modern Chinese: Wǔ Yìn, the Five Indies) is about 90,000 li; on three sides it is bounded by a great sea; on the north it is backed by snowy mountains. It is wide at the north and narrow at the south; its figure is that of a half-moon."

c. 944. Hind, Sind Masudi "For the nonce let us confine ourselves to summary notices concerning the kings of Sind and Hind. The language of Sind is different from that of Hind. . . ."

c. 1020 Hind Al-Birūnī "Hind is surrounded on the East by Chín and Máchín, on the West by Sind and Kábul, and on the South by the Sea."-

1205 Hind Hasan Nizāmī "The whole country of Hind, from Peshawar in the north, to the Indian Ocean in the south; from Sehwan (on the west bank of the Indus) to the mountains on the east dividing from China."

1298 India the Greater
India the Minor
Middle India Marco Polo "India the Greater is that which extends from Maabar to Kesmacoran (i.e. from Coromandel to Mekran), and it contains 13 great kingdoms. . . . India the Lesser extends from the Province of Champa to Mutfili (i.e. from Cochin-China to the Kistna Delta), and contains 8 great Kingdoms. . . . Abash (Abyssinia) is a very great province, and you must know that it constitutes the Middle India."

c. 1328. India Friar Jordanus "What shall I say? The great- ness of this India is beyond description. But let this much suffice concerning India the Greater and the Less. Of India Tertia I will say this, that I have not indeed seen its many marvels, not having been there. . . ."

1404 India Minor Clavijo "And this same Thursday that the said Ambassadors arrived at this great River (the Oxus) they crossed to the other side. And the same day . . . came in the evening to a great city which is called Tenmit (Termez), and this used to belong to India Minor, but now belongs to the empire of Samarkand, having been conquered by Tamurbec."

The people of IVC did not go around calling themselves Hindus and they did not practice Hinduism so all you say is B.S.
Religion

The so-called Shiva Pashupati seal
Further information: Prehistoric religion, History of Hinduism, and History of Jainism

The religion of Hinduism probably has its roots in the Indus Valley civilisation. Hindus and Indus people both worship a 'mother goddess' (her names include Parvati and Sakti), and both regard the cow as sacred. Hindus and Indus people both bathe in the River for religious purposes and consider rivers holy.[59]

Some Indus valley seals show swastikas, which are found in other religions (worldwide), especially in Indian religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. The earliest evidence for elements of Hinduism are alleged to have been present before and during the early Harappan period.[60] Phallic symbols interpreted as the much later Hindu Shiva lingam have been found in the Harappan remains.[61][62]

Swastika Seals from the Indus Valley Civilization preserved at the British Museum.

Many Indus valley seals show animals. One motif shows a horned figure seated in a posture reminiscent of the Lotus position and surrounded by animals was named by early excavators Pashupati (lord of cattle), an epithet of the later Hindu gods Shiva and Rudra.[63][64][65]

In view of the large number of figurines found in the Indus valley, some scholars believe that the Harappan people worshipped a Mother goddess symbolizing fertility, a common practice among rural Hindus even today.[66] However, this view has been disputed by S. Clark who sees it as an inadequate explanation of the function and construction of many of the figurines.[67]

Identity crisis... Paskistani ppl are confused by There ruler..

They don't know what are they, arab?? or Indian?? They claim Arab ansestory (In the same forum many Pakistani claimed it, and will claim it in future as well) where as ppl like thread starter try to take IVC as well..


My dear Pakistani brothers, first you know your identity and then come back dissociating IVC from Indian/Hindustani/Bhartiya culture.

Many Pakistani are taught that the history of Pakistan start from 7th century.. Watch this video,

Distortion of History in Pakistan by Najam Sethi - Part 1/3 - YouTube

There is a thread on PDF saying how Pakistani history was distorted

Son Hinduism is Bookish religion that was created by one person and propagated by his follower. The person who are following man made religion will not understand Hinduism..

I will repeat what I said elsewhere

Well, it seems that a part of Pakistani population, who has realized the fallacy of Jinnah's 2 nation theory as a core to their identity, is looking for alternatives to the same.. And thats where the desperation to create linkages with IVC comes in... Current state of Pakistan in the world order hasnt helped either...

To me it looks a bit similar to what some Pakistanis in the west did to avoid discrimination and started projecting themselves as Indians
 
.
Huh.. When did British rule my place?

As far as I know, my state and many were Princely states ruling directly under the King.

The most any relation with British was in form of taxes..

Rules and administration were entirely by Kings of that time.
