The Department of History at Aggarwal College Ballabgarh organized an engaging Guest Lecture aimed at exploring the evolving narratives in Indian historiography. Delivered by a renowned historian and researcher, the lecture provided students with a deep dive into the socio-political and cultural transformations that shaped ancient, medieval, and modern India.

The event highlighted the importance of objective historical interpretation and addressed the impact of colonial perspectives on India’s recorded history. With visual aids, ancient manuscripts, and digital archives, students got to witness a more immersive view of the past.

Topics discussed included the Indus Valley Civilization, rise and fall of empires, freedom movement, and post-independence challenges. The lecture encouraged analytical thinking and discussion around source criticism, historical bias, and the role of oral traditions.

The students actively participated in the Q&A session and showed great interest in career opportunities in archaeology, research, and heritage conservation. The department plans to organize such sessions frequently to foster academic excellence and a deeper understanding of history.
