Question
State the limitations of historical method.
Solution
The Limitations of Historical Method :
1. Historical data have some limitations, which arise mainly because historians cannot describe all the happenings in time and space available at the time of writing history.
2. Personal biases and private interpretations, generally, enter unconsciously, even when, honest attempts are made to select and interpret pertinent facts. This can be illustrated by reference to the current controversy that raging on the writing of Later Medieval Indian history particularly the Babri Masjid versus Ram Janam Bhoomi dispute.
