About The Book The traditional Indian system of recording thechronology of ancient times in the Puranas was unfortunatelydiscontinued after the Gupta period and consequently, the exactepochs of certain eras faded away from the minds and lives of thepeople by the 10th-11th century leading to a number ofinconsistencies in the chronology of ancient India. Takingadvantage of these inconsistencies, Western historians and theirblind followers completely distorted the chronology and concoctedmany false theories to take modern Indian historical research inthe direction that suited their biased purposes.
