About the Book

“Aurangzeb protected more temples than he demolished.” Did he really?

Or to issue sanads at Shatunjaya to Jain Temples? What Aurangzeb really was; a ‘Conqueror of Deccan’ or ‘Loser of an empire’? Was Mughal-Rajput or Mughal-Maratha conflict shaped only by craving of raw power as some modern interpreters try to project? Why it is essential to deconstruct this myth? What was the impact of the quote “Sultanate of Delhi has become a child’s game” in shaping today’s Indian subcontinent? Did EEIC really capture India from Mughals or from indigenous kingdoms? So; it’s time to start a journey through the pages of the history to know answers for these intriguing questions.
