My knowledge in history is not that strong .But going by reason -This is possible .
How did British who are just 1/10 of the Indian Population( may be lesss??) able to rule India for 200 years ?
Ruling has nothing to do with the population.It has to do with the skill and power !!
Honestly i think the purity of history is gone .Its stuck between VHPs and the communists who twist the truth as they like.
My friends ,seek the truth and then form an opinion,not the other way .It is long process and not a one page discussion !!!!
Read ROmila Thappar as well as Arun SHourie so that you can see both the sides of the coin .
