Of course. All modern development today goes back to the Vedic times. We created knowledge that has no equivalent, and will not have an equivalent even in the future, that the whole world is using and will continue using till extinction. It is knowledge that completely transcends all other human knowledge, and will continue to be unsurpassed.

All agricultural, industrial and technological revolutions would have been impossible without this knowledge.

If you are any smarter, you would try and find out what that was.

I'm not going to report you, but I suggest you edit your post and delete the foul language.

Typical Rubbish. Garbage. Britain took over India because it was the leading and 'developed' country of it's time. People need to grow up and accept the truth.

Well said,

We Indians should emulate Chinese and stop whining just like they stopped whining about British and Japanese.

I guess the Chinese govt realized it all the fault of the Chinese people who were "obedient " all over the century of humiliation to imperialists and hence deserved the same

Chinese foreign minister says Nanking Massacre deserves more attention than Hiroshima

China’s foreign minister has said that the atrocities committed by Japan during World War II deserve “even more attention” than the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

Ahead of U.S. President Barack Obama’s landmark visit Friday to the bombed city, the official Xinhua News Agency quoted Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi as telling reporters that “while Hiroshima is worthy of attention, Nanjing should not be forgotten and deserves even more attention.”


Nanjing is a reference to the city formerly known as Nanking, which was the Kuomintang government’s capital and site of the 1937 Nanking Massacre — often referred to as the “Rape of Nanking.” Beijing says 300,000 people were slaughtered after the city fell to soldiers in 1937 following Japan’s invasion, although those figures are disputed.

Wang, who was responding to a question about foreign leaders’ visits to Hiroshima, said, “The (Hiroshima) victims deserve sympathy … but the perpetrators could never shake off their responsibility.”

China has accused Japan of failing to fully come to terms with its wartime aggression and has questioned the sincerity of its apology for its rampage through Asia during the war. Beijing rarely misses a chance to remind the world of its suffering at the hands of Japan during the conflict, which it calls The War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.

In an editorial Friday, Xinhua criticized the nature of Obama’s Hiroshima visit, claiming it was designed to bolster the U.S. “pivot” to Asia while also giving Prime Minister Shinzo Abe a political win ahead of a key election this summer.

The visit “should not be used as an occasion to whitewash Japan’s atrocities in WWII,” Xinhua said.

China to study British Museum for looted artefacts
The British Museum is to be asked to open up its archives to allow teams of Chinese investigators to document "lost" Imperial treasures which China claims were taken from Beijing's Old Summer Palace when it was burned and looted by British troops almost 150 years ago.

The teams will form part of an international mission to demand the inspection of 1.5 million artefacts mostly held by museums in Britain and France.




China has moved to reassure countries that the intention of the scheme is to merely document archives, however it will raise fears that Britain could be asked to return some treasures.

The mission will send researchers to museums, libraries and private collections – including the British Museum and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London – in an attempt to build up a comprehensive catalogue of artefacts China says were stolen in 1860, following the Second Opium War.

The sacking of the Old Summer Palace – or 'Yuanmingyuan' – as punishment for the torture and execution of 18 emissaries sent by western powers to Beijing, remains an emotive subject in China, where it is still viewed as one of the nation's great humiliations.

The decision to try and document the millions of items now scattered round the world comes as China takes an increasing interest in retrieving artefacts that were removed from China during the colonial period and in the early 20th century.

"We don't really know how many relics have been plundered since the catalogue of the treasures stored in the garden was burned during the catastrophe," the palace's current director Chen Mingjie told the state-run China Daily newspaper.

"But based on our rough calculations, about 1.5 million relics are housed in more than 2,000 museums in 47 countries." China's sensitivity towards such 'looted' treasures was demonstrated in March when a Chinese collector sabotaged the auctioning of two bronze heads taken from the Old Summer Palace, bidding £13.9m for each, but later refusing to pay.

The auctioning of the bronzes belonging to the late fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent – a rabbit and a rat that were among 12 animal heads that adorned an elaborate fountain – had been condemned by the Chinese government who called for the sale to be cancelled.

However Mr Chen said that the primary intention of the cataloguing exercise was not to seek return of the relics, but to establish exactly what had been taken during the chaos.

"We have clarified that this is an attempt to document rather than to seek a return of those relics even though we do hope some previously unknown relics might surface and some might be returned to our country during our tracing effort." Among the institutions expected to receive a visit are the British Museum and the Fontainebleau Art Museum in France, however such collections represent only a fraction of the lost Summer Palace relics, including richly embroidered robes, sculptures, furniture, paintings, porcelain and carvings.

"I hope they know what they're letting themselves in for," said James Hevia, Professor of International History at the University of Chicago and one of the world's leading authorities on artefacts looted in 1860 and 1900, "they will need massive resources to undertake this project." Although some relics are in clearly labelled collections, Prof Hevia added, many thousands more are in private collections having passed through countless pairs hands – either by sale or bequest – obscuring their Summer Palace origin.

"I remember doing research in the regimental museum of the Royal Engineers in Chatham (Kent) in the late 1980s and, as I was about to leave after document other items, being asked if I wanted to see the 'throne' in the officer's mess.

"They called it the 'Gordon Throne' since it was bought back by General Charles "Chinese" Gordon, although in fact was a large imperial couch, not a throne, carved with wonderful dragons. It sat behind the main speaker's podium in the mess." On the issue of whether the research could lead to renewed calls for the artefacts to be returned, Professor Hevia said the Chinese expectations were realistic.

"I think they are probably under no illusions about getting much of this stuff back, as these kinds of claims touch not just Chinese items, but items in museums taken from many other countries," he added.

However despite the size of the task, research has already begun with a professor from Beijing's Tsinghua University, Guo Daiheng, being sent to The Washington Library of Congress and the Harvard University Library to study more than 100 old photographs taken after the looting.

India fares far behind China in terms of Industrial revolution. It takes lot of guts to massacre millions of own and then term it The Great Leap Forward. Not only that, but offer millions of own women to US like pimp and then print the same serial killer's picture on currency.

Mao proposed 'exporting' millions of women to US

Mao ao: AFment
Washington
February 14, 2008
MAO Zedong proposed sending 10 million Chinese women to the United States, in talks with top envoy Henry Kissinger in 1973, according to documents released by the US State Department.

The Chinese dictator said he believed such emigration could kick-start bilateral trade but could also "harm" the US with a population explosion similar to China's, according to documents covering US-China ties between 1973 and 1976.

In a long conversation that stretched past midnight at Mao's residence on February 17, 1973, a cigar-smoking Mao referred to the dismal trade between the two countries, saying China was a "very poor country" and "what we have in excess is women".

He first suggested sending "thousands" of women but as an afterthought proposed "10 million", drawing laughter at the meeting, also attended by Chinese prime minister Zhou Enlai.

Dr Kissinger, who was president Richard Nixon's national security adviser at that time, told Mao that the US had no quotas or tariffs for Chinese women, drawing more laughter.

He then tried to highlight the threat posed by the Soviet Union and other global concerns as he moved to lay the groundwork for restoring diplomatic ties a year after Nixon's historic visit to China.

But Mao dragged the talks back to Chinese women.

"Let them go to your place. They will create disasters. That way you can lessen our burdens," Mao said.

"Do you want our Chinese women? We can give you 10 million."

Dr Kissinger noted that Mao was "improving his offer".

Mao continued: "By doing so we can let them flood your country with disaster and therefore impair your interests. In our country we have too many women, and they have a way of doing things.

"They give birth to children and our children are too many."

Dr Kissinger replied: "It is such a novel proposition, we will have to study it."

The leaders then spoke briefly about the threat posed by the Soviet Union, with Mao saying he hoped Moscow would attack China and be defeated.

But Mao said: "We have so many women in our country that don't know how to fight."

The assistant Chinese foreign minister, Wang Haijung, then cautioned Mao that if the minutes of the conversation were made public "it would incur the public wrath".

Dr Kissinger agreed with Mao that the minutes be scrapped.

But when Dr Kissinger joked he would raise the issue at his next press conference, Mao said he was "not afraid of anything".

"Anyway, God has sent me an invitation," said the Chinese leader, who coughed badly during the talks.

Mao died in September 1976. US-China diplomatic relations were restored in 1979.

[fallstuff]

So the Brits are gone from the Brittish India, its been 70 years or so since then, how the Indians enriched themselves in the last 70 years ?

the mind boggles........

 

[SBD-3]

Brits took India and because it helped fueling the industrial revolution unfolding in Europe. And it wasn't Brits alone, French and Portuguese tried gain a foothold as well but failed or remained limited. However, UK's interests were solely commercial and imperialistic. For example, the credit of spread of Christianity in Sub-Continent is handed over to Portuguese Preachers (Catholics) rather than British ones (Protestants). Nevertheless, India was called "The Goldmine" for all the right reasons.

This is a new low for an Elite member of PDF.

I suppose I could have posted a shit load of dirty rumors like "10 Shocking facts of India founding father's personal life" or "Sexual experiments of mahatma gandhi" or something like that. But I will not sink to your level.

It is nothing more than off-topic troll. You have been in this forum since 2010, and you should have known better.
