Stalinist `Historians' Spread the Big Lie

by Sita Ram Goel

The Babri Masjid built on the site of the Rama-janmabhumi at Ayodhya is verily the tip of an iceberg which remains submerged in the hundreds of histories written by Muslim historians, in Hindu literary sources which are slowly coming to light, in the accounts of foreign travelers who visited India and the neighbouring lands during medieval and modern times, and above all in the reports of the archaeological surveys carried out in all those countries which had been for long the cradles of Hindu culture....

Another lovely book by Sita Ram Goel. You can see why our history books are distorted. Its such a shame. I dont understand why our history are not kept in neutral point of view.

A very brief, yet a brilliant piece of work by Shri Sita Ram Goel ji exposing the sheer skullduggery of our beloved "eminent historians".

The book is divided into three sections:

1. The Marxist Historians
2. The Big Lie
3. Questionnaire for the Marxist Professors

In the first two parts, by taking up Rāmajanmabhūmi and Kr̥ṣṇajanmabhūmi as prime examples, Sita Ram ji shows how the Left historians (whom he says are not 'Marxist' but rather 'Stalinist' by approach, hence the title) have distorted facts and fudged the entire narrative to suit their agenda.

The author opines that whenever Left historians have to defend Islamic iconoclasm & the destruction of various Hindu (Buddhists & Jains included) temples, they give the following two apologetic arguments:

1. Islamic rules did not do it due to the mandate of their religion or theology; but for sheer financial purpose.

2. Hindūs (Sanātanīs) have also destroyed various Buddhist & Jain temples.

Sita Ram ji argues with facts and logic that both of these arguments are not only misleading but are blatant lies.

In the third part he puts up a questionnaire to these historians, which contains 8 pointed and straightforward questions. Sita Ram ji mentiones that he had even written a letter (questionnaire attahced) to the queen of the cabal: Romila Thapar, but she -of course- refused to engage, and suggested him to "begin reading her works, for a start". Sita Ram ji, anyway, goes on to annihilate her case point by point.

This book, as well as all the other works of Shri Sita Ram Goel ji, must be read and distributed by the Hindūs!

Goel ji as usual dissects the deliberate, blatant lies spread by the marxist historians. He challenges them to prove that the Hindus and Buddhists were on each other's neck at all time and that some Hindu kings were iconoclasm which they use to dilute the islamic iconoclasm.

Crisp and clear. Great command on words and logical dissemination of facts. Acknowledging all sides and pointing out unnecessary and mischievous false equivalences of Indian historians which hasn’t done justice to nations history.

[Karan Vohra · Rating 5 out of 5]

Goel’s Stalinist Historians Spread the Big Lie is crisp and exposes how Marxist historians distorted India’s past to fit ideological agendas. He critiques their denial of civilizational continuity and deliberate misrepresentation of Hindu history, urging readers to reclaim truth and intellectual honesty in the study of India’s cultural and national heritage.
