Summary: Varaha: Hunnic Migration to Hind - Defenders of Bharat Lost in History sheds light on the untold saga of the Varaha Rajputs-fierce warriors descended from the Xiongnu tribes of Mongolia, who journeyed through Central Asia, Iran, and Afghanistan before ultimately settling in India. For over two centuries, they served as guardians of Bharat's northern frontiers, yet mainstream history has relegated them to the shadows. This book is a mission to break that silence. Author Amit Singh uncovers a remarkable lineage by integrating historical records, Persian and Chinese sources, and mythological references. It is the only book of its kind to employ DNA evidence in support of historical facts. Singh reveals how the Varahas evolved into powerful dynasties, such as the Hindu Shahis, and fought valiantly before being nearly erased from collective memory. This work is not merely about history-it is a reclamation of truth and a restoration of honour to a forgotten legacy. https://www.mlbd.in/products/varaha-hunnic-migration-to-hind-defenders-of-bharat-lost-in-history-by-amit-singh-9789368533450-9368533458-9789368532781-9368532788?srsltid=AfmBOoqBdy3KXATS3GObRg45VCQ-6rXhf85McFaoJiitnnQMJR05RGN0
