Cholas, Pandeys and Chers were competitors intially, but RajRaj I and his son Rajendra Chola were the greatest of their times, Rajendra even had marines in his army who were assigned task of safe guarding the sea routes, Cholas defeated Sri Lankan Sri Vijay through their marines. Later their was tripartite struggle between, Rajasthani Pratihars, Bengali Pals and southern Cholas to control Kannauj in Central UP.:k:
Cholas contributed extensively in construction of architecturally rich temple and literature of Sangam Sahityas:k:
Nairs, Cholas, and Ahoms of Assam always remained tough for every conquerors, even same is said about Kodavas of karnataka:)
I heard that sailing at sea was not allowed in some castes of Hindus. Is that true?
It is not allowed by any caste, as it has status of "Devata", He is father of Goddess Laxmi, Wife of Bhagwan Vishnu. But Bhagwan Ram bridged across it so it is permissable under certain circumstances, "Religion/God is always with the government". Indian mathematician S.Ramanujan had tough time convincing her mother to travel to london to meet mathematician GH Hardy

Gnadhi Ji also traveled through sea.. I was reading regarding his reaction, when he knew that the Doctor giving treatment to his wife, made her eat meat for medical purposes.
How is Gandhi Ji Janam Bhoomi preserved by Indian Archeological Department?

Gandhi always struck with his water and earth treatment:) Did jinnah write his auto biography, or is their any other good book on Jinnah's life??
His samadhi Rajghat is in good shape, and also a landmark though not as grand as Mazar-e-Jinnah. And his ashram in Rajkot is well preserved site

Jinnah didn't write his autobiography, but her sister Ms Fatima Jinah wrote a book 'My brother' in memory of her brother. The best book on Quaid's life is Stanley Wolpert 'Jinah of Pakistan'. In 1997, on the occasion of Golden Jubilee of Independence, PTV produced a serial on Jinah's life, which is considered to be more authentic then the movie 'Jinnah'.
Wazir Mansion has been closed for good five six years for restoration work. Restoration has been done but Wazir Mansion has not been opened yet due to lack of the staff. Don’t get disappointed. Take a look around. The area is delightful. Facing Wazir Mansion is a pale yellow stone building, looking like a replica of the original Wazir Mansion. Move forward and you will see four five early 20th century buildings whitewashed by existing occupants.

There is a twist in story. My father tells that they were taught in schools that Mr Jinnah was not born in Karachi, but in a small village ‘Jhirk’ somewhere near Thatta.**
Ok, now I found this news item confirming that there is confusion about Quaid’s Birthplace:
I always thought Jinnah was Gujrati, anyways, why so much dispute on that fact, Dina wadia can tell where her father was born:)

Will look into this, Wolpert's shameful flight is the first book that I read sometimes ago:)

Mr Poonja Jinnah (Quaid's father) was from Gujrat. Regarding Wolpert's book its a strange thing to note that the book was banned in Pakistan probably during Zia Regime.

Probably Zia didn't want people to concentrate anything beside afghanistan:D, secondly, reading about democracy and secular thoughts of Jinnah were anti-theis to his dictatorship:)
It is showing available on online site from which I buy:), looks like too much of freedom of speech in India:D, RSS didn't notice it:D
then he should have banned “Ghalib”, ghalib drank wine, used to be caught while gambling, even claimed to being beaten by his lover:D, I doubt if there is anyother wonderful creature in Indian history besides, Muhammad shah “Rangila”
In India Ghalib doesn’t need to be banned as there is no one there to gain political mileage by attaching ‘Rehmat ullah Aleh’ with his name, but our nation is quite emotional about their leaders. They can afford corrupt leaders, but don’t accept a person with problems like drinking, etc.
Other than Rangila, Wajid Ali Shah was quite Rang- Rangeela.
Ghalib was very creative poet, unparalleled in his class, In india, books on shivaji, mahatma would be banned any day, even satanic verses is banned in India, I read few pages of it, Rushdie doesn’t sound any special type:)
I think the book that was banned was on the historical perspective of Bhagwan Ram, she claimed character of Ram was myth which Hindus believe is historical character.
There are two theories on Aryans, One is Aryan Invasion theory that Aryan invaded india and pushed indigenous people, the other is out of India theory which states that ideas of Aryan went in opposite to Invasion theory's direction:)
In the late 1920s Shivratan Mohatta, an ambitious businessman from Marwar, commissioned the architect Ahmed Hussein Agha to design a Rajput palace in Karachi. The palace was to be located in the prestigious locale of Clifton and serve as a summer home for the Mohatta family. Agha built a spectacular summer palace in the tradition of stone palaces in Rajasthan, using pink Jodhpur stone in combination with fine yellow local stone from Gizri.
