Why “The Modern India”?
Embarking on a personal exploration titled “The Modern India,” this series of articles is a journey through the echoes of British colonization, weaving a narrative from the East India Company’s dawn in 1599 to the watershed moment of 1947. It’s more than just dates and events; it’s an endeavor to uncover the forgotten stories, delve into the lives of ordinary people caught in extraordinary times, and understand the nuanced motivations of historical figures. Much like reminiscing through a family photo album, these articles aim to humanize the past, capturing the highs and lows of our collective journey. Through a storytelling lens that’s less about selling a narrative and more about sharing an experience, I hope to make history relatable, sparking conversations about our shared heritage and the intricate threads connecting our past with the present. Join me in this personal odyssey, where each article is a step back in time, exploring the layers of our complex history.
