Because the west has recognised it, now it will take less convincing Indians to value it's own past.

The installation of Maharishi Sushruta’s statue at the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, Scotland is a proud recognition of Bharat’s rich scientific and medical heritage.

More than 2,600 years ago, Maharishi Sushruta pioneered advanced surgical techniques and laid the foundation of surgery as we know it today. His contributions continue to inspire the medical world even now.

A proud moment for every Indian.

@AdityaRajKaul In short, Iran can spend its OWN money only where US wants them to? Isn't this strange 😀

Fallouts of globalization and dependency on global economy and currency.

@svembu We need to hear more from decision makers like him. AI is here to stay, but we need to have a sensible and realistic debate about its advantages. As of now, it's riding the hype, and sensible concerns have no place.

Punctuality is a fundamental life skill that should be instilled from an early age. When it comes to career defining exams like #NEET, being on time is not optional, its a responsibility.

By Pro civilization you mean supporting the preservation and flourishing of distinct civilizations then it will certianly have problem with globalization, specially cultural globalization. Globalization is in a way domination of western civilization on others.

Every few decades there comes a generation that has no sense of history or clarity of future. They assume they can fix quickly.

In few countries they even get away with it as the majority doesn't care to respond and an intolerant minority gets away with it.

If no permission is required to protest, then there is no voter list required to vote, no elections to become an MP & no majority to form the government, etc. Finally, no Constitution is required to govern the country. It's like putting a premium on anarchy.

Mohenjo Daro is in Pakistan, guys. The audacity to claim something that literally exists in Pakistan right now.

By this logic we should claim the Taj Mahal.

Every decade or so, a generation emerges believing it can bring rapid change on the premise that the existing establishment is incapable. But time and again, history has shown that lasting change rarely happens overnight.

@svembu AI is adding to overall clarity in anything that you do, there is productivity gain in some areas, lot depends on what we do with that time. I agree and dont see we can reduce workforce due to AI yet. Layoffs could be a result of AI Hype, over investment and pressure to justify.

Always wondered this but someone put in better words.

[Ahmed Al-Khalidi @khalidi79397]

So why does "indigenous vs. colonizer" almost always mean Europeans, and almost never Bantu, Turks, Arabs, Slavs, or Han Chinese?

A few reasons, in descending order of how much they actually explain:

1. Recency and documentation. European expansion happened in the era of the printing press, photography, census records, and treaties. The Bantu expansion left no paperwork. The Arab conquests are 1,300 years old and mythologized as religious destiny rather than conquest. When the receipts exist, the case is easier to make, and Europeans left receipts.

2. The winners wrote the framework. Modern human-rights language, postcolonial theory, and the very category of "indigenous peoples" were built in Western universities after WWII, primarily to process European guilt over European empires. The tool was designed for one job. Asking it to evaluate the Arab conquest of Egypt or the Turkic conquest of Anatolia is like asking a tax form to diagnose a disease. It wasn't built for that.

3. Christendom is critique-able; other civilizations aren't. You can write a bestseller attacking Western Christian civilization from inside a Western university and win awards for it. Try writing the equivalent book about Arab-Islamic conquest from inside Cairo or Istanbul. The asymmetry isn't about history. It's about which societies tolerate self-criticism and which punish it. So the critical literature piles up on one side and barely exists on the other.

4. The Soviet inheritance. Cold War-era anti-colonial framing was deliberately shaped by Moscow to delegitimize the West while giving its own empire and its allies' conquests, a pass. That framework outlived the USSR and still structures a lot of academic and activist vocabulary today.

5. Race makes it legible. European colonizers usually looked different from the colonized. Turkic conquerors of Anatolia, Arab conquerors of the Levant, and Bantu expansionists in Africa generally didn't look dramatically different from the populations they absorbed. The visual contrast made European empire easier to narrate as racial, and once a story has a clean visual, it travels.

6. And finally, Jews. The framework's selective application reaches its most absurd point when a people indigenous to a specific land, with continuous presence, language, religion, and archaeological record tying them to it for three thousand years, get labeled "colonial settlers", while the actual seventh-century conquerors who Arabized the region get labeled "indigenous." At that point the framework isn't describing reality. It's laundering a conclusion.

The label isn't tracking who got there first. It's tracking who it's currently fashionable to blame.

@svembu In terms of energy spent, it makes sense to do a hybrid plan, meet in office for a day or 2 in a week.

Is the energy spent in commute worth it and does it add to productivity gain?
