Bhagwan Singh (born 01 July 1931) is an Indian writer, critic, historian, and linguist, known for his scholarly work in history, languages, culture, and literature[1][2][3]. He has provided evidence from vedic literature, interfaced with evidence from archaeology to infer that Vedic Aryans were Harappans[4][5]. This work was first published in 1987 in 2 volumes in Hindi Harappa Sabhyata Aur Vedic Sahitya [6][7][8] and in 1995 in English The Vedic Harappans[4][9][10]. He is also known for his novel Apne Apne Ram[11][12] in which the epic story of Ramayana is retold from a new perspective.
