Description
This book is written to help students understand the rich and diverse history of India from ancient times and the medival period. History is not just about dates and events – it helps us know how societies, governments, laws, and cultures have grown over time. By learning about the past, one can better understand the present and shape a better future.
This book is divided into five units. The first unit gives an introduction to history, its meaning, and the methods used to study it. The second unit covers ancient India – its kingship, state system, society, economy, justice, and early laws. The third unit explains the early medival period, including the Delhi Sultanate’s administration, justice system, and social structure. The fourth unit explores the Mughal period, including their laws, judicial system, and the Maratha rule under Shivaji. The fifth and final unit explains the Mughal interactions with foreign powers, the decline of Muslim rule, and the rise of British rule in India.
Special attention has been given to legal systems, social structures, and the evolution of justice in India’s past, which will be helpful for law and history students alike. The language is kept simple for easy understanding, and each chapter is organized clearly.
