Poros Defeated Alexander

[Guest guest]

There is very popular myth that Alexander defeated Porus in 300 BC.

This myth is propagated by the Western historians, mainly, British.

The writings of Curtius, Justin, Diodorus, Arrian and Plutarch show

that Alexander was defeated by Porus and was forced to make a treaty

to save the lives of his soldiers. The Indian king in his "grand-

pardoning" manner let Alexander go free.

 

 

In reality any honest historian will tell you the out come of this

battle is not too clear. What is clear at that very moment Alexander

decided to go back. Why did he go back? The excuse his soldiers were

tired has no bearing. The fact is after defeating the mighty Persians

Alexander was confident and India rich. I think Porus did the job on

him. As is well known Porus was six feet six inches tall too.

 

Did he defeat the Indians? I doubt it. This is the fabrication of

Western historians. Never do the Western historians also talk of the

mighty Jat the great Maharaja Ranjit Singh.

 

The legend of Porus having been defeated by Alexander is what the

British history books taught us. It was fabricated and not Indian in

origin. The British were remarkable intellects but did play a little

politics too. I might add the British have nothing to do with the

word Aryan it is Indian in origin. While the Aryans originated in

India (Central Asia) the British fine tuned it and fabricated the

Aryan invasion theory. Now it is proven without doubt that both the

Aryans and Dravidians originated in India.

P.S. If Alexander had penetrated deep into India then I would believe

he beat Porus.I might add Alexander was lucky he did not bump into

the Tamil Cholas.

If the sources "... show that Alexander was defeated by Porus and was forced to make a treaty to save the lives of his soldiers." and "In reality any honest historian will tell you the out come of this battle is not too clear." By your own admission you are not an honest historian.

Ipso facto, you are not an honest historian.
