After much fighting, the administration of the empire passed into the hands of Aurangzeb. He looked upon power as a mean to reform an corrupt society. The pious Emperor did much to improve the life of common people. He abolished all illegal taxes, etc. His measures brought relief to common men. He didn't seem to care about his own comfort.
So we can understand from this that, after theirs fathers death, there was a political struggle and Aurangzeb finally was Victorious. What he did to his brothers was somethinh anyone whould do during a rebellion. People kill their own family members for a piece or land or other property dispustes in India lol....
We have to view his actions keeping in mind his time, his circumstances etc. Dont use colored glasses given by anyone to jude a 1000 year old history.
History is never fool proof and what we know today might change tomorrow depending on availability of new evidences. So study history with a pinch of salt lol... It is not admissble in Court of Law lol.....Jokes apart, we seriously need to restore Aurangzeb to the position he deserves. We have certenly been very unfair to him.
