INVESTMENT PROPOSAL FOR HISTORY AWARENESS PROJECT
Title: The Forgotten Pages
Prepared by: Anurag Yadav and Team
Introduction
In today’s world, historical narratives often overlook or misrepresent India’s ancient achievements. While Oxford University is renowned, India’s ancient universities like Nalanda and Takshashila were pioneering knowledge hubs, attracting scholars globally. Similarly, while global figures like Alexander the Great are celebrated, India has its own heroes such as Maharaja Ranjit Singh, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, and Samrat Ashoka.
The Problem:
Lack of awareness about India’s ancient accomplishments.
Misrepresentation of Indian history by colonial powers.
Limited understanding of regional histories and India’s role in global culture and trade.
Lack of knowledge about India’s freedom struggle.
The Solution:
- A revised school curriculum that includes the histories of Indian dynasties and their role in global trade and culture.
- Regional history education to highlight local cultural contributions.
- Digital resources, cultural events, festivals, museums, and community engagement initiatives.
- Collaborations with historians and researchers to integrate Indian history into popular culture.
Quiz Competition: A Showcase for Our Vision
