If we look at real facts, It makes him 100% Gandharan. Which is Ancient Pakistani.
The real Ancient India, is the modern day Pakistan. The current REpublic of India, is the ancient, Doab Gangetic plains, Deccan, Bengal, and southern regions, etc.
Nope, the real Ancient India is the Indian Subcontinent, and certain parts of Afghanistan.
RR, unless you prove Alberuni's work as incorrect, the debate is over. Stop clinging on to Kalavas.
"The eminent Multan-born Indian mathematician Brahmagupta (598 A.D. - 660A.D.) went on to give the rules of operation of zero in his treatise Brahmasphutasiddhanta as though zero were any other number. Today, his rules may sound trivial, but imagine their significance when zero was nothing in the rest of the world."

Clearly another reference, though not as strong as the neutral scholarly references I presented before.
It's fairly safe to conclude Brahmagupta had strong ties with Multan, Ancient Pakistan.
Just corrected the highlighting.
4 scholarly references of the highest academic credentials, and more to come, is enough to prove such.
You however, have not proved that the translation of Al Beruni's work is correct, nor that it is Hindutva influenced.
What sort of idiot would write, "Born in Town X located between Town Y and Town Z?" Let's not kid ourselves. Your Al-Beruni reference of the place where Brahmagupta was considered a "native" of (which could mean anything even that he only worked there, or be translated incorrectly), is very poor.
I have provided solid academically stamped credentials of Brahmagupta's place of birth in Multan.

Nonsense. Bharat and India are the same thing. Bharat is the indegenous name, India is the name given by foreigners.
Flint, first sort this problem out amongst yourselves. debate with srijeesh, and tell us which is correct.
When Bharatias themselves are not of one view concerning what constitutes India, then how can you lecture us?
