New revolutionary theory on Indus Scripts: I have published a book on Indus Valley Civilization with the title "New Interpretations on Indus Valley civilization". A brand new theory has been proposed in this book stating that Indus sites are necropolises (burial sites) and not metropolises as popularly imagined so far. Further, the Indus scripts have been deciphered and Indus code has also been explained. “New Interpretations on Indus Civilization” By Avinash Mishra, IRS. Shri. R Jeyakumar, IRS, Additional Commissioner of Income Tax, Chennai, is a batch mate of mine and a great friend for the last 20 years. Although he has formal education of Agricultural Sciences, he has keenly studied History. For over 5 years he has been studying Indus Script and the Civilization and has come out with startling findings which are contrary to what is taught in India to students. According to the claims in the book duly supported by evidence, the so called metropolitan civilization of Indus Valley is wrong interpretation. This metropolis is actually burial ground. This will not be tolerated by our Historians. Ever since he found out this fact, he has been discussing this with me. His findings have been published as a book named “New Interpretations on Indus Civilization”. I have gone through the book and requested Jeyakumar for the e-launch of the book. The book review is as under. The Author has come out with an outstanding claim that he had deciphered the Indus script. So far so many persons had made such a claim and none of the decipherment has been accepted by the community of Historians. Noted Historian Gregory Possehl, Author of the book “The Indus Civilization – A contemporary Perspective” concludes that no satisfactory explanation has been given so far. Even famous Indologist Asko Parpola also had come out with a statement that "totally different approach" should be applied to find a breakthrough in this field of deciphering Indus Script. Asko Parpola is the Finnish History professor and had devoted his entire life to the study Indus script and decipherment of Indus script. Now, a totally new person, a total outsider to the field of archaeology and epigraphy claims that he had deciphered the Indus script. It is very important that we should understand the achievements of Indus people to develop a proper perspective of our present day cultural values of our Hindu religion and Indian Nation. Proper national perspective should be developed on the Indus people so that we can claim an important lineage among the civilized people of the world. Decipherment of Indus script will give a breakthrough in determining the race of Indus people, whether they were Aryans or Dravidians. The Author of the book takes a neutral view on the question of ethnicity of Indus people. He states that they were neither Aryan nor Dravidian, but they were p
