Is se meri ek pehchaan aur pata chal gayi.. i m a journalism student.


And also guys who says only girls like History......coz I am male......and I absolutely love History.....😳
About Chandragupta 's death, u r right.Chandragupta converted to Jainism in the last years of life, and after handing the throne to Bindusara, he retired to Shravana Belagola in Karnataka; with the Jain monk, Bhadrababu.
Later he starved or fasted himself to death in the ancient Jain tradition.😃

@jhum_86 i don' think that Chandragupta'd only one son bcoz he'd married helena in 303B.C wen Seleucus Nekator signed a peace treaty .
but its also true that Chandergupta stepped down from the throne in favour of his son Bindusara in 298 B.C. so its quite possible he married helena just 5-6 yrs. b4 his death.
and Chandergupta bcame king at the age of 20 yrs.wen he started his war of liberation in the lower indus valley b4 323 B.C bcoz of unrest caused by sudden death of Alexander wid the help of "Pravatka" or "Porus", a hilltribe chief who'd fought wid Alexander!!
@historylover though i agree that CGM bcame king at v. young age but i m also sure that he'd a son from helena but wasn't even allowed in the court bcoz his mother wasn't a Indian by birth!!and he'd married her 5-6 yrs. b4 his death!!
and though in this show its shown that CGM was a slave but Megasthnese in his "indica"'d told that at that time in india slavery wasn't prevalent though servants or "dasas" & dasais" were present. but the way sagars hav shown abt slavery in it isn't true. though CGM was earlier rearedby cowherd & then by a hunter & wen Chanyakya saw signs of royalty in him he brought him from his foster father & took 2 Takshshila Univ. & gave him educn nearly 8yrs. 2 thwart greeks & depose Dhananand!!
this above info i got from my history book of ancient India😊
@charu i was trying 2 find on this forum but sorry i saw u here only 2day & in the noon my broadband connection wasn't working properly so cudn't say u "hello"!!😊😊and u r rite in writing abt CGM as i read it in my history book also!!

hi !! i found this info in history text book of "Indian History Manual" but may b u won't get it as its a text book 4 the civil services in our state but u can find info(but not full & the book from where i get this much info also doesn't've full info) in a NCERT history text book 4 Class XI of "Ancient India" by R.S.Sharma!! 😊😊
@historylover i know only this much abt helena & her son that they were not allowed in the court proceedings bcoz helena wasn't an Indian by birth!! but i"ll try 2 get it from a book written by Vincent. A. Smith(though its a v.old edition wen there were only less info abt ancient india). and u can google it !!😊😊

Available sources of history doest not hve any record about CGM's personal life, not his birt, childhood, and not marriage except Selules's daughter Helen. But for TRP I think Sagar House can creat anything, bcoz audience interested in love stories more than history.
