This table confuses me massively. Let's assume all the Proto-Indo-European languages are descended from the same root. No problem there. Now, let's also assume there is an AIT because of which Telugu and Marathi are from different language families. #AryanInvasionTheory
But, then, why is Mundari different from Dravidian? Are we saying that just like Aryans came and imposed their language and culture on India, are we saying Dravidians also did the same on Mundari Tribes?
If that's the case, how is it possible that Munda territory is located between Aryan and Dravidian lands, and not on the other side of Dravidian lands? What do we know of Dravidian Invasion Theory and it's impact on Mundas?
Did they also flee the Dravidian hordes to inaccessible lands like what the Dravidians did before the Aryan hordes? What was the technological edge Dravidians had over the Mundas? And what are the timelines? And where did these Dravidians come from?

Let me propose a slightly different theory over Brahmin hatred in India. We understand that they being the guardians of Hinduism had to face the ire of Buddhists and Jain's during their days of ascendancy but then these cults were just corrective actions on Hinduism.
Their retreat was chaotic and still had local support. On the other hand, Rashtrakutas are one of the first kingdoms in India who expanded that massively and rapidly. This introduced a level of low level churning in the government. To establish control in the kingdom
and to ensure the resurgence of Hinduism, Rashtrakutas planted Brahmins and Agraharas all over the kingdom. This was less of a counterweight to those two decaying cults but more as a direct challenge to the local nobility.
Another of Nehru's stupidities. When the Islamic Jinnahate of Pakistan was being formed, Kalat was dead against joining it. Ahmed Yar Khan in fact went to the extent of influencing the formation of independent Balochistan and Pashtunistan. What did Nehru do? Nothing.
Pakistan had the support of Kalat's Prime Minister Aslam Khan and Foreign Minister Douglas Fell but even after Jinnah appeared in Quetta in person, he wasn't able to achieve anything. Ahmed Yar Khan was supposed to meet Jinnah with the accession treaty but he feigned illness and
didn't bother to sign. Aslam Khan resigned in desperation. But, why was Jinnah in Quetta in person? What was the need? A month before, not just Kalat, but the whole of Balochistan had actually declared independence - in fact, Bizenjo, the head of Kalat National Party said,
Want to know how the concept of propaganda and narrative works? Try to find about the Dhulap family online. You will find literally nothing. Because according to the mainstream narrative, they are pirates. Reality? They headed Maratha Navy and oversaw both Salsette and Kolaba.
How is Sarjerao Dhulap related to Harji Dhulap? Are Krishnaji, Janoji and Rudraji brothers? Who succeeded Anandrao? Who ruled Vijaydurg in 1818? In fact, Brits said Vijaydurg fell in 1812 but somewhere else they wrote, they were chased away even in 1818 just before the war!!
Except these, there are only a handful of facts 1. Janoji was both a navy as well as army commander of note. He was the commandant of Chikballapur in one of the Maratha Wars. In parallel, Rudraji dropped 10k soldiers at Honavar messing up Hyder's plans.
Superficially, yes. But, its much more nuanced than that. Singh Sabha, Arya Samaj, Congress - all came at the same time. All of them directly or indirectly did the same thing - dilute Hinduism. Let's focus on Congress. Congress was created as a
vehicle that Indians don't go the wrong way. If you look at the earliest crop of Congress leaders, almost all of them are bible inspired Hindi social reformers. Ranade used bible to teach his wife English, Chandavarkar was excommunicated 15 years after he returned, Gokhale,
WC Banerjee and others, dig deeper, you will see much over how they tried to hollow out Hinduism. Along with this Social Reform, Congress had another agenda - create a hardcore pro-British intelligentsia which will percolate into the masses and mess up the minds.
I just can't understand. How can one be so stupid? For Murshidabad, India surrendered Khulna. Siliguri Corridor became leaner. Chittagong Hill Tracts were written off. Are we really saying India didn't have a visibility for all this or are we saying people had zero clue?
And Nehru didn't invade Noakhali and cut off Chittagong as a response to 1947 Pakistani Invasion of Kashmir. Seriously? Its a different thing that Sneha Kumar Chakma has already given him ideas and he was horrified at that.
In fact, even in 1951, Tripura asked why exactly isn't India bothered about Chakla Roshnabad. And anyone with commonsense would have pounced upon Noahkhali. Just look at the same map in blue without Sylhet, Tripura, Noahkhali and Chittagong. Sylhet was also actually borderline.
A synopsis of the genesis of Manipur troubles. 1. Mizoram is carved out of two territories - North Lushai Hills which was illegally taken over from Tripura and South Lushai Hills which was carved out of Chakma Hills
2. The gap between Manipur and Chakma Hills is known for migration of tribes from the direction of Yunnan. Every few decades, a new clan becomes the master of the hills and either ejects or absorbs the last power of the area.
3. Because the territory was always divided between Chakmas(a long time Tripura vassal), Tripura, Kachar, Manipur and Ava which were there in the area for more than a millenium before the Chin tribes entered the area, the disturbances caused by the upstart were easily crushed.
