(1/14) 712 C.E #BinQasim invaded Sindh - 1030 C.E #MahmudGhazni died 'distorians' do 3 disservices - Lionize invaders, sideline heroes & hide brutalities. This film reverses that - - Read on for uncomfortable truths & unsung heroes @fgautier26@singhsahana
(2/14) 712 C.E Mohammed Bin Qasim of #Ummayid Caliphate invades Sindh, kills #RajaDahir & sends his 2 daughters to Damascus as slaves. But did you know that the daughters tricked the Khalif & had Bin QAsim killed? @ShefVaidya@neha_aks - example of naari shaktitva
(3/14) So why did no Arab invade India for 300 years? Because India was blessed with kings like #Lalitaditya, #BappaRawal, Dantidurga & Nagabhatta 1 who thrashed jihadis so bad that they disappeared for next 300 years. @vivekagnihotri - theme for your next movie maybe?
(4/14) 1001 C.E Mahmud Ghazni started his raids and yes he had some spectacular victories like those against #Jayapal, #Anandpal & Hindu shahis. But did he have a free run walking all over weak grass eating Indians? Lets check out.
(5/14) Authentic sources says that Mahmud Ghazni was beaten several times in India. E.g #VidyadharChandela stalemated him once and beat him once in Gwalior. @amitmalviya@AmitShah@narendramodi ji - when you rewrite history please ensure such heroes are mentioned
(6/14) Mahmud Ghazni was also beaten by #GovindrajaChauhan near Ajmer. One king called Kiritiraja Kachawa is also said to have beaten Ghazni but I could not find sources. @vikramsampath or @jsaideepak can you help ?
(7/14) Sangram Raja of Kashmir defeated Mahmud Ghazni twice. @OmarAbdullah should we rename Baramulla to Sangram nagar in his honor? @RahulGandhi why did your Kashmiri great-granpa deploy 'distorians' that said "Tata Goodbye Khatam" to such heroes instead of highlighting them?
(8/14) #Jatt soldiers attacked Ghazni after every raid. He finally subdued them after a river battle on Indus by use of Naptha fire balls but only after he had lost too many men & resoruces. These #jatts can demolish opponents like @ARanganathan72 does in 30 seconds
(9/14) Tragically yes in 1026, Raja #BhimSolanki fled Patan leaving the space open for Ghazni to attack and destroy #Somnath temple with major loss of life. Somnath would anyways be rebuilt very soon and this was a pyrrhic victory - read on.
(10/14) - Fun fact - #RajendraChola ruled south when these raids were happened. Once both armies were just 26 miles away but both decided against confrontation as Ghazni was primarily a quick cavalry based raider while Chola was a large infantry & Elephant based slow land army.
(11/14) So the task of teaching Ghazni a lesson was taken up by #RajaBhoj. Bhoj chased Mahmud back to Ghazni where he died of Malaria. He was unable to establish any base in India. @KapilMishra_IND & @TajinderBagga - please do the same to the Ghazni in Delhi
(12/14) Mahmud Ghazni's nephew Salar Masud tried misadventure in Gangetic plains after his death and was promptly dispatched to 76 hoors by the @myogiadityanath of those times - #RajaSuheldev. @Sanjay_Dixit - Sir this can be theme for one episode of @JaipurDialogues
(13/14) Contrary to what Gunga Dins & their Jamaatis tell you Indian civilization did not survive by showing the other cheek or by largesse of some Turki tyrant. Our ancestors were tough as nails, fought like tiger and shed blood for your life, liberty and dignity. @SatyaAnveshak
