[QUOTE=exclusively;657849]From Muhammad bin Qasim 712-to war of independence 1857 (it is part I)

From 1857 to 1947 plus prepare three constitutions would be more than enough...(it is part II)...

Ashoka period is not included in indopak of CSS... It is out of course...!

Now you must have got it...

Do not read I.H Qureshi.....It is my opinion that it waste our time...Otherwise if you have ample time, than must read it...It is also a very good book...


I have made my own short notes of both Paper I and II from three books...

for Paper I..
Sohail Bhatti.......(it contains past solved papers of CSS paper I)
K.Ali...I...(Very good book, it is in very easy language)

for Paper II
K.Ali book II
Rabani's book


That is more than enough. I had read I.H Qureshi's book, K.K Aziz's book and two other books. Concentrate on the above book. The rest of books are just for reference, if you have got enough time than go through the reference books. Otherwise, the four books which I have suggested you, are more than enough. If you prepare well from the above books, and make your own short notes as I did. I give you some of my notes which I have posted on forum... You will get to know that how to work in Indopak...

What do you say about S.M.Ikram's Book " History of Muslim Civilization in India and Pakistan" ?

Yes, its quite good book..

[QUOTE=saadiya ali;657840][B]i have opted it & referring I.H qureshi's book but i want to confirm its syllabus that it starts from MOHAMMAD bin qasim invasion to sindh in 712 ?? m i right?
and it does not include ashoke * buddhist periods?? [/B][/QUOTE]

Yes its from Muhammabad Bin Qasim. Basically the foundation stone of two nation theory was laid when Muhammad Bin Qasim put his first step on the land of Sindh. It was this expedition that led towards the division of Subcontinent into two nations based on communal lines and hence the creation of Pakistan

Seemingly, indo pak history would have good scoring trend in forthcoming years.
