Research:
PROJECT ITIHASA : AN UPDATE
By Vedveer Arya

I am pleased to inform you that I have successfully completed my research work on Indian and world chronology on the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya. My journey of chronological research started on 4th Sep 2014 when I discovered the chronological error of 660 years in Indian history and the epoch of the Saka era (583 BCE). I honestly had no idea how I am going to convince the world about this error. All I knew was I had discovered something which will give a major breakthrough to resolve numerous riddles of Indian and world chronology. In fact, I have realised that the chronological problems cannot be debated independently. It is pertinent to establish the sheet anchors for the entire chronological framework of world history before debating the chronological problems one by one.

Finally, my hard work worked harder than my luck. I have decided to self-publish my research work so that I can freely provide entire content on website for all researchers and readers. However, printed copies will be available for purchase. My research work will be published in three volumes and tentatively scheduled to be released by Oct-Nov 2019.
