What are some series like Stranger Things on Netflix?
https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-bd73e568b1210e5fac1f4d9f2244a081

Did Morarji Desai hate Marathis?
https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-687dc11e71a05280ac9846c7c46843eb.webp
By Sunil Kumar Truthfully – to some extent, yes, I think so. Most of what I’ve read about Morarji Desai gives one the impression that he was a strict puritan, a proud Gujarati and a follower of Gandhi. He’s also …

Why did no one ever dethrone the Mughals despite the fact that Delhi was conquered so many times by the Maratha, Durrani, British, etc.?
https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-70b6642955ab311a670526f253eb5009.webp
By Sunil Kumar Interesting question. I will attempt to analyze the three disparate forces mentioned here and possible reasons for why nobody ever tried to dethrone the Mughals. After the invasions in the early 11th century, the Sultanates starting from …
