இதிஹாசப் பார்வையில் ஆரியப் படையெடுப்பும், ஹரப்பன் நாகரிகமும் (My talk in VoC)

 I am delighted to share the news about the A3 Conclave organized by Voice of Covai in Coimbatore. The conclave, which took place on November 30 and December 1, 2024, at Codissia, brought together 27 speakers, including myself, to discuss the significance of Bharatiya culture in shaping India's identity and future.

The A3 Conclave, which stands for "Awake, Arise, Assert," aimed to promote and celebrate Bharatiya values and Sanatana Dharma. I am glad to be part of this inaugural event, which was conceived to inspire and empower individuals to assert their cultural heritage.

As one of the speakers, I had a fantastic opportunity to share my insights and engage with like-minded individuals. The conclave was indeed a thought-provoking platform for discussion, debate, and assertion of the timeless wisdom and principles that have sustained our nation. 

The event coincided with the return of Sri Annamalai, President of TN BJP, from his 3-month research stint at Oxford University. He graced the occasion as the chief guest and delivered his first public address after his return.

The conclave faced unexpected challenges due to heavy rainfall along the east coast of India, resulting in delayed and cancelled flights. Unfortunately, Union Minister Sri L. Murugan was unable to attend and inaugurate the event as scheduled.

On November 30, I presented a talk titled "இதிஹாசப் பார்வையில் ஆரியப் படையெடுப்பும், ஹரப்பன் நாகரிகமும்" (Aryan Invasion Theory and Harappan Civilization in the light of Itihasa). My presentation delved into genetic studies on the Yamnaya culture, analyzing the movement of people from Europe preceded by an earlier movement of people from Bharat to Europe through the lens of Ramayana events. Additionally, I explored the Harappan culture from the perspective of Mahabharata, shedding new light on the ancient civilization. I also made a case for re-naming the Harappan culture as “Mahabharata Culture”.
