A discussion session was held at Swami Vivekananda Library evening with author Ashish Call of 'Dida: The Warrior Queen of Kashmir.'
The event was conducted by Rakesh Dixit. Rakesh Dixit was the first to introduce the book. This book is about 212 pages. It is based on the history of India and the history of Kashmir, whose background is only from No. 958 to No. 1003.
He found the book very interesting. Introducing the book, Ashish said that woman has always had a special place in the history of India. He also said that the honor that women used to get today, especially in the ancient civilization, is an irony. India was also called stridesh. Ancient India was so developed that it had its own ration distribution system, its own organized army. After this, he highlighted the history of Kashmir.
Author Ashish Kaul told about this book that in the history of India, everyone knows about Rani Laxmi Bai, but the story of Rani Dida is probably very useful. Born in the blacksmith's Princely State, Dida was a disabled person since childhood, due to which her family also rejected her. He was raised by his maid.
Despite not being fully capable of the body, he learned the art of war.
He also got his iron in many sports competitions. She became queen of Kashmir after her marriage to King Kshemgupta of Kashmir and her life took a new turn. Not only did he play the religion of being a mother, wife and queen, but he also played an important role in the politics of that time.
