FROM GUL HAYAT COLLECTION:
"MOHAN JO DARO" by Gangaram Samrat.
Gangaram Samrat was a big name in Research and Historical writings. He pleaded Hindu School of Thought by virtue of his literary contribution. He was closed friend of my father Dr. Dur Muhammad. His Rejoinder to Chachnamo is very important to known about Hindus' observation on it. This book is in a way that it narrates an other story about our site of oldest civilization.
I have gone through correspondence made between him and my father on the name of site. My father is perhaps first Scholar who has disagreed with names of Site as MOHAN JO DARO or MOEN JO DARO. To him it MOHEN JO DARO. GOD knows better what was reason behind renaming as MOEN JO DARO? If we mean it as Site of Dead people, then what about Jukar Jo Daro, Kahooa Jo Dark etc? Moen Jo Daro number Two, number Three etc?
This book was sent to Gul Hayat by Gangaram Samrat. It was published in 1992 at Ahmadabad. I am sharing photo of its Title page.(Mumtaz Pathan)
