Vedic people used to kill and eat cows :D I think this exaggerated love for cows is a remnant of their pre-Hindu folk religion past, as no Indo-European religion gives this mucj importance to cows. Aryans of the steppe didn't really care about cows that much

Hassan Nisar sums up secularism nicely

Natasha Paracha, Miss World Pakistan 2008. I have a crush on her :smitten:

The academic papers you have quoted only talk about a linguistic link. Dravidian is a linguistic group just like Indo-European. It's Tamilo-Madrasies who haven't got any relevance to IVC. Albino? Lolwut. Connections with Adivasis and Mundas is genetic not linguistic. Check out Harappa DNA.

Even all of India is not from the same historic or geographic background. It varies greatly.

Wrong. Bharat word is from mythical king in Mahabharata which post-dated IVC by some thousand years. Hindustan during British times only referred to the Hindi Belt. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindustani_people 'Indian nation' didnt exist back then, only the Mohyal Brahmins of Kashmir...

None have called IVC people as genetically similar to Tamils, all they said is that they spoke a proto-Dravidian language. Dravidian is a linguistic group, just like Indo-European. Doesnt mean all Indo-Europeans or Dravidians are related. How are Brahuis racially and culturally diluted? This...

could've just said atheist. Anti-god gives a Satan vibe.

The Dravidian here means Brahuis of Balochistan/Gedrosia area not Tamils of South India. Genetically and culturally, Brahuis differ very much from South Indian/Tamils and are pretty much indistinguishable from Balochs. Refer to Zagros farmers paper, who were Neolithic migrants from West Asia to...

We are not sure of the Arabian conception of 'Al-Hind' at that time, or whether it was similar to the modern Indian conception, but during Muhammad Bin Qasim's time Al-Hind referred to the Gangetic Plains and Deccan. Al-Sind was the Indus Plains.

Is he Satan?:o:

Something seems fishy...it's Bangladesh after all :dirol:

This has been disproved via genetics. Brahuis dont have much to do with South/Central Indians. They dont look much alike apart from the beard. The sculpture Priest King has a higher/narrower nasal index and is broadheaded unlike Modi.

On an Indian website, what do you expect? The proto-Dravidian (even Dravidian term isnt correct since it literally means South which doesnt make sense wrt IVC) that IVC spoke was related to Brahuis, not to South Indian Dravidians who most likely got their language shifted from Austro-Asiatic to...

I heard there would be a Harappan Priest-King instead of a President in Azad Dravida Nadu. Is this true?

Doubt any connections with IVC

To be honest, in this case Urdu is not like other languages. I mean, when does it stop being Hindustani or Khari Boli and become Urdu? What degree of Farsi loanwords? Given that Hindustani/Khariboli both already incorporate Farsi loanwords unlike 'pure Hindi' which substitutes them for Sanskrit...

That definition is arbitrary but even during British times Uttar Pradesh province was not consider 'North India' but Central India. British put the line of Hindustan at the Sutlej River around Sirhind. UP was not considered North-West. During Mughal times, Urdu/Hindustani was likely only spoken...

Urdu is not a mixture of Sanskrit and Persian but rather Hindustani/KhariBoli and minor Persian. Moreover Hindustani is not a North-Western Indo-Aryan language but a Central Indic one while Persian is not an Eastern Iranian language but a South-Western Iranic one. North-Western Indo-Aryan...
