The history of India is very interesting and full of ups and downs. There have been many great rulers here who created big empire with their valor, foresight and diplomacy. But, one of the truth of history is that the hard work that makes a king empire, it does not take much time to waste and sometimes the biggest reason was the absence of capable children. When the heir of an empire is unworthy, no matter how big the empire is, it does not stand. Let’s know some such examples in the history of India.

Scatter

Who does not know Emperor Ashoka, he was a great king. He united the whole of India and gave the message of peace. But after Ashok, no one turned out to be so competent in his son and ahead generation. His son Kunal and grandchildren also could not handle the empire. As a result, within a few decades of Ashoka’s death, the Mauryan Empire ended with laminate.

Collapse

The Gupta period is called the Golden Age of India. Emons like Samudragupta and Vikramaditya gave a golden phase in science, art and literature. But the Gupta ruler who came after Skandgupta became so weak that invaders like Huns easily broke the empire. After which gradually the identity of the Gupta dynasty disappeared.

Weak children of Delhi Sultanate

The same story was repeated during the Delhi Sultanate era. Iltutmish made his daughter Razia Sultan a heir, who was capable, but the courtiers and Amir-Umra removed them and put the disqualified rulers on the throne. The pattern was seen in Khilji, Tughlaq and Lodhi dynasty that the next generation was not worth taking power and the Sultanate continued to disintegrate.

Mughals collapse

The Mughal Empire is considered to be the largest empire of India. From Babur to Aurangzeb, this empire flourished a lot. But after Aurangzeb, his children did not come out. Weak rulers like Jahadar Shah, Farrukhsiyar, Muhammad Shah Rangeela took command of the empire. As a result, the Mughal strength gradually remained just a name and the British took a chance and captured the entire country.

Marathas defeat

Shivaji Maharaj raised a tough challenge to the Mughals by creating the Maratha Empire, but after his death his son Sambhaji too soon was martyred and the front rulers did not prove to be as competent. The Peshwas definitely came to power, but internal discord and unqualified heirs weakened the Marathas and then finally the British defeated them too.

Sikh Empire after Ranjit Singh

Maharaja Ranjit Singh is called Sher-e-Punjab. He formed a strong and rich Sikh empire in Punjab. But after his death, his successors continued to fight among themselves. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the British also captured Punjab and this empire also collapsed.

Kiren rijiju targets congress: Union Minister Kiren Rijiju on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Congress party. He shared a video of Doordarshan’s famous 90s TV show ‘Chanakya’, in which there is a debate in the Maurya Empire’s Rajya Sabha whether the refugees should be given shelter or not.

Supporters of ‘illegal intruders’ told Congress
Rijiju wrote with the video, ‘The Congress party remembered this scene after seeing the illegal intruders supporting. Can no longer repeat the mistake made 2000 years ago. We cannot include illegal migrants in our voter list. His statement has come in the background of the ongoing Voter List Amendment Campaign in Bihar and the criticism being done by the Congress.

What was in the video?
In this clip, a minister in Chanakya’s Rajya Sabha says – ‘To give shelter or not, depends on your human attitude.’ At the same time, the second minister warned that ‘Tomorrow these refugees will claim authority over Taxila’s land’. The irony is that the Mauryan Empire of Chanakya and Chandragupta Maurya is connected to ancient Bihar itself. At the same time, there is a fierce battle in today’s Bihar about the voter list.

Politics on BJP’s historical and cultural background
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has often been strengthening its political ideology through history, culture and ancient texts. In this case too, the party has taken a tough stand on illegal stay citing national security.

In West Bengal too, the BJP has been continuously accusing the Mamata Banerjee government of promoting illegal infiltration. Earlier this year, Home Minister Amit Shah accused the Mamta government of showing ‘mercy’ on the intruders and stopping the border – which is a threat to the security of the country.

What is CAA and India’s refugee policy?
In 2019, the BJP government passed the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), under which the process of giving Indian citizenship to non-Muslim refugees from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan was easier. But there were large -scale protests against this law. Critics described it as discriminatory because Muslims were not included in it.

India has not yet signed the UN refugee conference of 1951 or its protocol of 1967. There is no national refugee law in India, so that in such cases, decisions depend on the discretion of the government completely.

India is also facing migrant policies in the world
On the other hand, in other countries including America, rigorous migrant policies have also affected India. During the tenure of Donald Trump, strict action on immigration in the US increased the risk of billions of dollars of remedies (migrant money) loss to India.
