The Mughals (Apart from last Mughal, Bahadur Shah Jafar), I suppose did not rule India, they tortoured India, killed infidels, destroied their places of worship, looted them, did not spare women, children, plundered tremndous wealth through treachary etc. The developement in the field of art, music, achitecture etc, is in the blood of the native people of this land, they keep doing it irrespective of who is ruling them, Mughal or for that matter any other foreign ruler can be given a credit of this developement. They came to rule and plunder this holy land, yet they were buried here itself. Afterall one of the mightiest of the Moghul ruler, Aurangzeb, fought 23 years with Marathas, figting a lost battle and was buried here itself, who said Moghuls could rule all over this land. They were gang of thugs, looter, intolerent, uncultured and currupt minded foreign impurities to this holy land.

I was very sad to read your article, Mughals although came in as conqueror but gave India the glorious period in arts, litreature, uniting the country. I am not saying they were all good, Aurangzeb was a staunch believer in Islam and by forcing people to convert to islam was his way to be religious and believing he is doing good. Akbar the Great was indeed a great Mughal Emperor.Why to bring Hindu and Muslim issue here, Even Hindu emperors at the time were busy enjoying their lifestyle if they were more active as aking there would be no Mughals but they lacked as a king, they were busy in raising issues of religion putting female infanticide and sati burning as a part of a religion? So Moral of the story is History is a Mystery but lets not use current/sensitive issue Hindu Muslim on all our discussions! And Also please have your facts correct and then post any messages.
