Bemused Sanskrit scholars said it long ago, Rig Veda rarely mention Indian rivers. Jamuna a handful of times; Ganges barely once and Saraswati, a fabled dried up eastern river, only praised in later text. Disconcerting for pious Indian Hindus, Rig Veda's heartland is in Pakistan.
Rig Veda was written in Pakistan. Sanskrit evolved in Pakistan. Sanskrit's Grammarian, Panini was born in Pakistan. Word India, cognate of River Indus, flows in Pakistan. Word Hindu, cognate of River Sindhu flows in Pakistan. River Indus does not even flow in mainland India.
Scientific studies prove that river Ghaggar flowing through India, entering Pakistan as Hakra dried up in latest Pleistocene (2,588,000 to 11,700 years ago). Was not main water source of Indus Valley Civilisation cities & was not mythical Saraswati described in Rig Veda, 1500 BC.
Large majority of people of Pakistan in its entire 9000 years of urbanised history, were never religiously Hindus. They were majority Buddhists & later became majority Muslims. Word Hindu doesn't even exist in 1500 BC Rig Veda or any classical mythological Indian Hindu scripture.
Indians identify river Ghaggar-Hakra as Saraswati & call Indus Valley Civilisation as Saraswati Civilisation. Ramayan Ayodhya Kand states Ganga & Saraswati flows together. Kumbh Mela at Triveni Sangam & Mahabharata confirms this. How can Saraswati flow in Indus Valley.
At Triveni Sangam, India, Saraswati flowed into Hooghly in Hawrah and then as Captain Sherwill & Ferguson say, flowed into Ganga Sagar.

A clear indicator that Saraswati flowed into the Bay of Bengal.
Out of total 1028 hymns in Rig Veda, only 34 hymns mention Arya, meaning Noble Ones. Bharatas are mentioned only in 3% of 34 Arya hymns. With only 1.8% mention of Bharatas in all Rig Veda hymns, India named itself Bharat as if the remaining 98% Indian Hindus are not noble enough.
Talageri states that Purus were indicated as the core tribe of mythological Rig Veda and Bharatas were a mere sub-tribe of Purus.
In Rig Veda, which was written in 1500 BC in Pakistan, the name of the river was Sindhu (Indus) and it was identified as the only male river in area. Tributaries of Sindhu have been identified as female rivers.
Concept of zero existed in 1500 BC Rig Veda, written in Pakistan. Symbol of Zero was also invented in Bhakshali, KP, Pakistan 1800 years ago.
Word Mlechha or foreigners is not mentioned in 1500 BC Rig Veda written in Pakistan. Even Sanskrit grammarian Panini, born in village near Swabi, Pakistan doesn't mention it. Mlechha/foreigners used for Pakistanis was mentioned in Indian Hindu scriptures written in Ganges Valley.
