Saroj Bala

This book is a narration of important events of the Mahabharat war with exact dates. It is backed by scientific evidence entailing five years of intense research. It takes note of different claims made by esteemed scholars on the date of the Mahabharat war and establishes that the war took place in 3139 BCE. This book will compel the reader to look at the evidence and re-calibrate his understanding of ancient India. Specifically, if the Mahabharat war was fought in 3139 BCE, are we not supposed to conclude that the Harappan Civilisation was actually the Vedic civilisation of the Mahabharat era?
