"Name INDIA given by British" - Pajeets Are Now Boycotting the Name India Claiming it is a Colonial Imposition

[nahtanbob]

Yeah captain obvious, everyone can see Pyramids from miles away. Did they know what's inside? Who discovered what's inside, Egyptians or Europeans?



Who wasn't invaded? Egyptians were invaded by Hyksos and Greeks, Mesopotamians by pretty much everyone in the known universe, but Iraqis are still their descendants yeah? Only Pakistanis are the exception...

I never claimed Iraqis are descendants of the Mesopotamians. Neither do the Iraqis. They live on the same piece of real estate at different points in the timeline. So did the Assyrians and Sumerians

Harappans = Iranian hunter gatherers + AASI

*this doesn't mean the present day Persian population or the Tamils. None of these groups exist anymore.

Aryan migration led to Aryans + Harappans merging giving rise to Indo Aryans.

Some Indo Aryans interacted with eastern iranic tribes giving rise Indo Iranians.

Hence the modern day population of Pakistan

Only thing is Indo-Aryan is a subgrouping of Indo-Iranic, not a sibling group of it.

British didn't name it India. Even in the hadith, the Prophet SAW referred to India as Al-Hind.

That translates to "the Indus" in English. As did in India to the Romans.

Well the point was Indo-Aryan tribes came into contact with eastern Iranic tribes which basically gave rise to the Pashtuns. Indo-Aryan-Iranian….whatever…call it what you may.

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

Call it Hindustan.....

Indo-Iranic then which is Indo-Aryan + Iranic.
Pakhtuns come from Eastern Iranic peoples whom settled in the subcontinent during the late Bronze Age.

Indians, Bharatis and Hindustanis are locked in a perpetual war of existence. All 3 constructs of some imagination of Nation State have failed in the Subkontinent

Failed in what? Care to elaborate.

But IVC people didn't become modern day Pakistani and just disappeared into thin air?

Recent findings suggest they are more like a particular group of South Indians, and share more genetic markers with those Tribal South Indians. They hardly resemble the North Indian / Pakistani of today because a lot of migrations, and invasions happened in those years. But we do share some DNA with them.

Columbus searched for the land of spices known as India. He named the natives of Americas as Indians. Most of the spices he wanted are in Southern part of India

These Mullahs don’t want to understand anything. Their education was learning by rote, while shaking body too and fro. Subjects like critical thinking, science etc aren’t the subjects, that they were ever exposed to. They were taught earth is flat and taught never to question such theories.

Their fears of existential crisis are being imagined by them for India too. They couldn’t hold on to their identity and broke in two and can’t fathom how India is still one. These doubts flow from the education that they received under dumb Mullahs, who taught them that only one religion and one ideology is supposed to exist.
It is futile to try and explain any thing to diseased mind of dear friend @hatehs.

1. Just because something hasn't been discovered yet doesn't mean it won't be understood one day. The university of Sindh has a entire institute dedicated to the Indus language. And 150 years ago ancient Egypt was just as much a mystery also. More excavations by the British led to more discovery. In Pakistan excavations have been slow.

2. The closest relatives to the Harappan people are literally the modern day ethnic groups of Pakistan.

British named their colony India which they wrongfully gave the entire subcontinent.

Historic India = Indus Valley



Hind, Hindhu, Hindhustan all derive from the Sanskrit term Sindhu.

Sindhu = Indus Valley

Avestan Persian and Sanskrit derive from a common Indo European language.

In ancient Persian, S sounding words were pronounced with an H.

Sindhu therefore become Hindhu, from which Hindustan and Hind derive.

During the Greek Persian wars, knowledge was transferred to Greeks about a land called Hindhu.

They took the root hINDhu giving rise to IND, INDOS and eventually onto Latin IND+ia.



All these terms = Indus Valley

Yeah? So when are you changing name of Pakistan to Hind or Hindustan?

 

[Novus ordu seclorum]

The British named the Mount Hind [India] in Makkah?

 

[Novus ordu seclorum]

I thought everyone was Hindustani, or knew about Hindustan. All others are sub identities. I am from Bihar which gave India it's identity. Can't have another identity trying to invalidate India. Even if India breaks into 100 states, it is Indian civilization from Afghanistan to Bengal.

‘Name INDIA given by British’: Assam CM tears into Opposition alliance​

“Our civilisational conflict is pivoted around India and Bharat,” Sarma said in a tweet.​

News Desk| Updated: 18th July 2023 10:00 pm IST

Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma.
The rebranding of the Congress-led coalition to the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) has sparked a debate, with Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma claiming that the British named the nation India, but that “we must strive to free ourselves from this colonial legacy.”

“Our civilisational conflict is pivoted around India and Bharat,” Sarma said in a tweet.
“The British named our country as India, and the Congress accepted it. We must strive to free ourselves from this colonial legacy. Our forefathers fought for Bharat, and we will continue to work for Bharat. BJP for Bharat,” he added.

On Tuesday, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge unveiled the name of the opposition alliance that would face the ruling NDA in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections: the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA).
Kharge stated that the second meeting of the opposition group was critical for preserving democracy and the Constitution in the interests of the people of the nation.
“We have come together and discussed various points. With one voice, people supported the resolution adopted today,” he said.

“Our alliance will be called Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA),” Kharge said.

Christopher Columbus landed in America in 1492, and mistook it for India hence the name Red Indians

The British Landed in India in 1608

The first Europeans to come to India and the last ones to leave were Portuguese. The first Portuguese to land in India was Vasco De Gama in 1498.

Wonder if this helps

Wonder if this helps

It can’t, because aim of our friend here is not to discuss but troll.
He is a vile Hindu hater. He and his few chamchaas have only one aim- create and propagate anti-Hindu propaganda and spread lies. Use foul language if cornered by good argument.

Just wait and see. His lackeys will jump right in and try to save their master.

From my tradition. We always considered Punjab, Kashmir, and Bengal part of Hind as well.
