Rewriting history to assert Aryan 'pride': of being superior race, noble, free born

By Osman Sher 

A new era has recently dawned in India: writing everything anew, history, geography, science, et al, falsifying all that has been established by evidences, research, and logic, pushing the existing ignorant population into the quagmire of fantasy and falsehood. This illiterate mass as well as the profit-seeking literate sycophants feel exhilarated and work for the continuity of the present state of politics.
The Aryans were semi-nomadic barbarians, living in the European steppe, the region between the Caspian and the Black Sea. They were forced to leave their homeland around 2,000 BC due to some natural disaster like drought, pestilence, or a series of Mongol invasions from Central Asia. Moving in all directions they spread over a greater part of Europe on the west and Turkey, Iran and India in the south-east.
They did not carry with them an impressive culture except for their spoken language and the poetic accomplishment of their sages, as enshrined in the Vedas. They did not know the art of writing and remembered the Vedas orally. They were using a spoken language that has been described as Primary-Sanskrit.
Extremely proud of their exalted extraction, the Aryans had a self-given name which meant “noble” or “free-born”. This pride of noble birth, or twice-born “djiva”, was reserved for themselves, which is being carried to this day. Also proud of the colour of their skin which was white, the dark-skinned local people were segregated from themselves by using the most obvious sign, i.e., the colour of skin or verna. The locals were declared to belong to a separate verna.
The proof that Aryans migrated to other countries apart from India is evident from the name of Iran meaning the land of Aryans
In Europe this pride of fair colour is reflected in Hitler’s claim of belonging to a superior race and in the Aryan logo of Swastika, as well as in the white supremacists of Europe and North America who form racist and terrorist organizations like KKK.
The proof that the Aryans migrated to other countries apart from India is evident from the name of the country Iran meaning “the land of the Aryans”. In Biblical times the country was called Paras or Faras. Another important source of information about Aryans dispersion is the tablets found during the 1909 excavations at the Hittite site of Boghaz-koi near modern Ankara in Turkey. They tell us of a treaty between the Hittite king Subiliuma and his neighbour of the east, king Mattiwaza, who reigned in 1400 B.C.
The treaty which is considered as the first document referring to the Aryans, invoked as divine witness four gods, Indra, Uruvna, Mitra, and Nasatiya whose Sanskrit names in the Rig Veda are spelled virtually the same, i.e., Indra, Varuna, Mitra, and Naksatras (Herman Kulke and Dietmar Rothermund: “A History of India”, and DB Vohra: “A Panoramic History of the Indian People”, Ch. Two,). 
This indicates that the people of Asia Minor also belonged to the Aryan race who worshipped the same gods as the Aryans of India did.

From plagiarism to proxy exams: Galgotias and systemic failure in education

By Sandeep Pandey*   Shock is being expressed at Galgotias University being found presenting a Chinese-made robotic dog and a South Korean-made soccer-playing drone as its own creations at the recently held India AI Impact Summit 2026, a global event in New Delhi. Earlier, a UGC-listed journal had published a paper from the university titled “Corona Virus Killed by Sound Vibrations Produced by Thali or Ghanti: A Potential Hypothesis,” which became the subject of widespread ridicule. Following the robotic dog controversy coming to light, the university has withdrawn the paper. These incidents are symptoms of deeper problems afflicting the Indian education system in general. Galgotias merely bit off more than it could chew.

The 'glass cliff' at Galgotias: How a university’s AI crisis became a gendered blame game

By Mohd.

Growth without justice: The politics of wealth and the economics of hunger

By Vikas Meshram*  In modern history, few periods have displayed such a grotesque and contradictory picture of wealth as the present. On one side, a handful of individuals accumulate in a single year more wealth than the annual income of entire nations. On the other, nearly every fourth person in the world goes to bed hungry or half-fed.

'Serious violation of international law': US pressure on Mexico to stop oil shipments to Cuba

By Vijay Prashad   In January 2026, US President Donald Trump declared Cuba to be an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to US security—a designation that allows the United States government to use sweeping economic restrictions traditionally reserved for national security adversaries. The US blockade against Cuba began in the 1960s, right after the Cuban Revolution of 1959 but has tightened over the years. Without any mandate from the United Nations Security Council—which permits sanctions under strict conditions—the United States has operated an illegal, unilateral blockade that tries to force countries from around the world to stop doing basic commerce with Cuba. The new restrictions focus on oil. The United States government has threatened tariffs and sanctions on any country that sells or transports oil to Cuba.

Conversion laws and national identity: A Jesuit response response to the Hindutva narrative

By Rajiv Shah  A recent book, " Luminous Footprints: The Christian Impact on India ", authored by two Jesuit scholars, Dr. Lancy Lobo and Dr. Denzil Fernandes , seeks to counter the current dominant narrative on Indian Christians , which equates evangelisation with conversion, and education, health and the social services provided by Christians as meant to lure -- even force -- vulnerable sections into Christianity.
