Brief description of the event: The Department of History organised a peer lecture entitled ‘Ashokan Edicts: Early Forms of Mass Communication in Ancient India’ on May 17, 2025. It was conducted in room 547 from 2:30 pm to 4 pm. The lectured enquired into one of the edicts (both pillar and rock) as earliest forms of communication in ancient India. The lecture differentiated how this was different from the kind of mass communication espoused by the kind propagated in modern Europe.
