excellent post Jung. Thank you for giving details of the resistance given to Muslims.

excellent post Jung. Thank you for giving details of the resistance given to Muslims.

Import?

There is heavy export going on.

Mentality of majority among them that is that they don't need us anymore.

Also, I might as well throw this in here as well. The Garhi of Chamkaur was owned by Hindu Ghorewaha Rajputs... the younger brother Chaudhry Rai Roop Chand gave Guru MAharaj sharan and was shaheed with the Soormay at Chamkaur.... so its about time you cowards stop speaking ill of hindus as we were all hindus once and our hindu forefathers took amrit. We did not come from the skies as many of you would like to believe. We are native to this land and this land is our forefathers land. Any people who cannot respect their ancestorys cannot respect themselves. Hence, today Sikhs are just a weak kom without a leader and without any significant import. Thanks to tat khalsa neo sikhs of abrahamic tradition such as yourselves.

We Sikhs are weak koum and you hindus are rulers of world ? Yes we are without leader so what but we are not without ambition , we know what we want and that is AZAADI from your Hindu corrupt system , AZAADI from your discrimination , AZAADI from your HATE ,

Which land are you talking about where our brothers were burnt alive and still no justice ? Take your stupid forefather and ancestor bullshit to RSS shaka were you belong ,Indian Hindu idiot .

[amar_jkp]

this "we" club seems to be Khalibans' duplication of the ISIS model.

What you more expected from Hindu SWASTIK Nazi supporting mass murdered like Beant Singh.

[Kulsingh5]

What inellectual caste those who exploited people for thousand years ? We will not change our relegion philosophy to win converts .

What this "we" will not change our religion philosophy to win converts, that’s exactly what you and your gang of fuudu fundamentalist scum have done.

Khalibans have destroyed everything the Sikh Dhram stood for, you guys waving your flags of made-up glories and even defeats are symbolised as some sort of honour. Instead of learning from the defeats, abundant time is spent trying to justify them. What a poor bunch. Promoting terrorists to a saint status.

In a way it's good, no converts, slowly you will all die out.

Here comes another bahman talking about Sikhi . We are not going anywhere people are getting more aware about myth called Hinduism , Democratic India and the truth .

Better you people worried about your own relegion worshipping Sai Baba or not . Thousand of Gods but still prove even one existed .

Waris Shah wrote Heer Ranjha and some stupid believe they really existed same case for Hindus .

Excellent reply to Hindu fanatics by Dr Ganda Singh

Whenever a discussion regarding the independence of India has begun the newspapers, the communication mediums and the historical books have gone by leaps and bounds to represent the 1857 uprising as the first war of independence. The revolt of 1857 has been imposed on the brains of common people with that strength that a majority of them have accepted it as first war of independence without reasoning or questioning. Like this was not enough, with immense emphasis it has been said, “The revolt of 1857 would have never failed, provided the Sikhs did not betray. India could have got its independence 100 years earlier, but due to the betrayal by the Sikhs Britisher’s ruled for 90 years and kept plundering and destroying India.”

In 1957, a mega conference of top historians of India was held under the auspices of Central Government and topic of discussion was – “What was the reason for the failure of 1857 revolt?” Top academicians from universities delivered lengthy speeches. Most of them almost focused on only one thing that the revolt of 1857 failed due to betrayal by Sikhs. India had to see the 100 more years of slavery just because of the Sikhs. The famous Sikh historian Dr. Ganda Singh was also present in this mega conference. In fact, Dr. Ganda Singh was the chairman of this conference. He could not tolerate the insult to whole Sikh community. He felt deeply hurt due to the addressing of Sikhs with the word traitor by the top historians. Eventually, when listening and watching this despicable act was not more tolerable to Dr. Ganda Singh, he resigned from the president ship of this conference. At the same time Dr. Ganda Singh asked for time to speak on the stage. The conference hall became turbulent, people starting wondering what is going on? The president was scheduled to speak in the end of the conference, what is going on? First he submitted resignation and now he is asking for time to speak? – people where wondering and watching dumb stuck. Dr. Ganda Singh excellently presented the Sikh side of story and that too with such logic and reasoning that the audience was astonished. The whole way of thinking changed and atmosphere got reversed. The historians started to sweat they, who were speaking in loud voices before, started sneaking out of the conference now. Those who were yet to speak, they starting reconsidering the tought of speaking and one of them though it was better not to speak at all. What Dr. Ganda Singh spoke was quite a few and nobody gave any satisfactory reply to that. Its not possible to describe everything here what Dr. Ganda Singh spoke, but the following is the summary and central meaning of that talk:-

[amar_jkp]

“In the important gathering of today, we are discussing the reasons for the failure of the revolt of 1857 but the whole energy seems to be focused around emphasizing that if Sikhs did not betray the revolt of 1857 would not have failed. By speaking like that about Sikhs you have insulted the whole Sikh community. The Sikh people have given more sacrifices as compared to their population proportion in this country and today the same Sikh community is being made to stand in the court. I am sitting back there and thinking from some time, that if at all the Sikhs have betrayed then whom and why? No! No! this allegation is totally false and against the facts. First of all we should discuss – was the revolt of 1857 in reality the first war of independence? No! I do not consider it as the first was of independence, not by any means! This was not any planned and organized revolt. The issue just arose from the fats of cow and pig. The cartridges of the bullets for the rifles are opened with mouth by soldiers. Somebody spread rumors in army that the cartridges are coated with cows and pigs fats. Due to the mention of cow’s fat the Hindus got angered and the Muslims got angered due to pigs fats. An army man named Mangal Pandey got angered due to some reason in the Meerut cantonment and shot his British officer. The unplanned and un-organized uprising started from here and the violence started spreading as more people came to know about this. But all this was happening due to religious feelings and not for the freedom of the country. Some shrewd people are trying to paint this religious disturbance as the struggle for independence. At that time, all the kings and chieftains were having their own different views on this religious disturbance. The whole country at that time was divided into small regions. Neither was there a common leader, nor was there any means of communication between all of these small regions.

I simply do not accept this uprising as the first war of independence because Hindustan (India) was in the shackles of slavery from 700 years. The person who encouraged people for independence for the first time was Guru Nanak Dev ji, and his voice was further strengthened by the Singhs (Sikhs): -

[amar_jkp]

The English translation of which is like this: -

As the Word of the Forgiving Lord comes to me, so do I express it, O Lalo. Bringing the marriage party of sin, Babar has invaded from Kaabul, demanding our land as his wedding gift, O Lalo. Modesty and righteousness both have vanished, and falsehood struts around like a leader, O Lalo. The Qazis and the Brahmins have lost their roles, and Satan now conducts the marriage rites, O Lalo. The Muslim women read the Koran, and in their misery, they call upon God, O Lalo. The Hindu women of high social status, and others of lowly status as well, are put into the same category, O Lalo. The wedding songs of murder are sung, O Nanak, and blood is sprinkled instead of saffron, O Lalo. Nanak sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord and Master in the city of corpses, and voices this account. The One who created, and attached the mortals to pleasures, sits alone, and watches this The Lord and Master is True, and True is His justice. He issues His Commands according to His judgement. The body-fabric will be torn apart into shreds, and then India will remember these words. Coming in seventy-eight (1521 A.D.), they will depart in ninety-seven (1540 A.D.), and then another disciple of man will rise up. Nanak speaks the Word of Truth; he proclaims the Truth at this, the right time.

The invader Babur imprisoned Guru Nanak Dev ji where Guru Nanak had to bear tortures, had to grind flour and do other hard work….. The struggle for freedom starts from that time. Guru Arjun dev ji were considered a rebel by the invader/king, and he was martyred by exposing to intolerable tortures. The first great martyr of India was Guru Arjan Sahib ji. Guru Hargobind Sahib was imprisoned in the form of prisoner of war in the prison of Gwalior for long time. He also fought 4 wars at different times. Guru Tegh Bahadar Sahibji were martyred fighting for the sake of self-respect, dignity and freedom of religion by Aurangzeb in Delhi. Did Guru Tegh Bahadar have some personal grudge against Aurangzeb? Guru Gobind Singh ji fought for the freedom of people and societal welfare. He tolerated enormous problems, raised his sword for the “just war”, infused self-respect and dignity in Indian people; rare instances like this are found in the history. Every Sikh jumped into the war field without worrying about their life. Banda Singh Bahadur along with his Sikh knights gave big troubles to Emperor Bahadur Shah and Farukhshayyar and eventually he sacrificed himself along with numerous other Sikhs for the sake of freedom while fighting these wars. This fierce war for the sake of freedom continued, swords kept rising, shots kept firing, Knights kept fighting, the blood kept oozing and flowing like rivers…. but this selfless quality did not go away and kept progressing forward from one generation to the other. They kept getting severed into pieces, heads kept getting slashed, they kept going forward, even got buried alive in walls, were boiled in water but kept fighting the war of life and freedom. Nawab Kapur Singh, Sardar Jassa Singh Ahluwalia, Sardar Jassa Singh Ramgarhia, Maharaja Ranjeet Singh, Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa, Baba Deep Singh, Akali Phoola Singh, Sardar Shaam Singh Atari and Bhai Maharaj Singh – the list of such people who kept the cruel rulers on their toes is long.

[amar_jkp]

The Sikhs sealed the Khyber Pass which was the route of the invaders who kept plundering India in the past and forced them to return back from where they had come. The area till Satluj river had been made the part of Afghanistan by these invaders, the Sikhs took back this area from them and joined it back with India. But you people did not stop the Britishers and let them come in via the sea route and they eventually occupied the whole of India. Only Punjab was free from the British slavery, where the Sikhs were ruling under the rule of Maharaja Ranjeet Singh, you people did not let remain that free as well. Countless people from the Indian region outside Punjab joined the British forces and attacked Punjab along with Britishers just after the death of Maharaja Ranjeet Singh. The traitors like Laal Singh, Gulaab Singh, Dhiyan Singh joined hands with the cheating Britishers. The most powerful empire of the world (British) and most of the India outside Punjab moved towards Punjab along with their weapons to finish the Sikhs. Nevertheless, the Khalsa showed such an example of bravery in this war, that people will remember that till the end of this world. Poet Shah Muhammad has written the account of that war as follows:

Jang Hind Punjab da hon lagga, doven paatshahi fauja bhariaayan ne | Naal goliyaan de bande jaan udd de, haathi udd de sanhe ambariaayan ne | Ajj hove sarkaar taan mull pave, jehdiyaan khalse ne tega mariyaan ne | Shah Muhammada! Ik sarkaar bajhon, fauja jit ke ant nu hariyaan ne | (Jangnama Shah Muhammad)

Which in plain English translates to: – The battle between Hindustan and Punjab has begun, armies are heavy from both sides. People are blowing away with gun fires, the Elephants are getting blown away to the skies as well. If the master(Maharaja Ranjit Singh) was present today he would have appreciated, the powerful blows of the sword of the Khalsa. Oh Shah Muhammad! After the master, the other army has lost even after winning. (Description of the war by Shah Muhammad)

[amar_jkp]

The havoc that the local people from outside Punjab unleashed by joining the Britishers cannot be expressed in words – Sikh houses and businesses were plundered and destroyed, young men were killed mercilessly, fires were set, everything was wrecked. The Sikhs who were rich and prosperous were turned into poor having no property, women were dishonored. The Sikhs had not yet forgotten the nerve wrecking atrocities done by Hindus – how a prosperous Punjab was turned into soil by joining hands with the British, how freedom was turned into slavery. Just 10 years had passed after the fall of Sikh kingdom (1849) that this self-centered revolt of 1857 sprung. The deep wounds inflicted by the Hindu armies had not yet vanished from the Sikh minds. After that fierce destruction the Sikhs had just begun to get past their woes. It is worth noting here – did any Hindu leader approach Sikhs? Did they ask the Sikhs to join this revolt? Did the Sikhs agree? Furthermore, a common man named Bahadur Shah Jafar, who was from the lineage of the Mughals who committed uncountable atrocities on Indian people and had killed uncountable young people, was to take the throne after this revolt- do you think Sikhs would have agreed to this?

The Kings and Chieftains, who are being praised on this stage today and are being painted as the heroes of the community – there is a need to analyze their characters as well. Queen of Jhansi, Lakshmi Bai had no son and her husband was a commoner of no good health and he died due to various diseases that he was suffering from. Lakshmi Bai wanted to adopt a child but the British Empire was not happy and they refused her adoption. In turn, Lakshmi Bai sent a letter to the British rulers asking them for 10 Lakh rupees annually to give her kingdom to the British with was rejected by the British. She then reduced the asking price to 2 Lakhs and kept wooing the Britishers for the deal but even then they did not agree. Let me remind you all here that all these hand written letters from Lakshmi Bai are preserved in a big library in London. These letters have the contract mentioned by Lakshmi Bai. When the deal did not work, she decided to fight. The stories of Tantya Tope and Nana Farnvees is not better then the story of Laskhmi Bai. All these people had their own axe to grind, somebody was just interested in a small piece of land and some other had other interests, there was no common motive for this struggle. It is also worth noticing here that the common people of the kingdoms of these people were not very happy to live under their rule – atrocities were committed against them and they were often insulted. The British rule was much better than these kings and chieftains.

You people are calling the aimless revolt of 1857 as first struggle for independence? – I do not agree with you.(eh makhanak vakti junoon si). The true war of independence had already started from the time of Guru Nanak Dev ji but then the whole of India helped the British to attack Punjab and take away its independence, they became instrumental in taking away the freedom of a big and free kingdom of Punjab. During the revolt of 1857, neither the Hindu leaders approached the Sikhs for help nor the Sikhs commit joining the revolt. Some people fought for their own vested interest and now Sikhs are being painted and traitors. How shameful is this act! How shamefully you people are polluting the history and targeting false and despicable allegations on Sikhs.

[amar_jkp]

The Sikhs who sacrificed their uncountable lives and saved the dignity and self-respect of Bharat (India), whose blood has flowed like rivers, who infused a new life in Indian masses and gave new meaning to life, who saved the country from breaking away into pieces – this is what they get from India in reward? Traitors! this is the crown that you will put on their heads? I have a lot to speak but time is limited. I will print a booklet today itself and put in your hands by tomorrow morning so that the whole picture becomes clear, so that the whole world comes to know how through a well planned conspiracy the Sikhs are being rendered courage less and are being insulted.” (Dr. Ganda Singh ji)

The book was really written overnight. Its Punjabi, English and Hindi versions were cyclostyled and were distributed among people. There was good effect of this and then nobody dared to call Sikhs traitor again in the later versions of the same conference. But the deeper plots and conspiracies have continued to exist against the Sikhs and continue to slander the Sikh pride and history. Sadly, the Sikh community at present is devoid of fearless scholars like Dr. Ganda Singh ji who could say right things at right time. He single handedly muted top historians who had gathered in the conference from all over India, tore apart the truth from the 1857 revolt and brought to light the reality of the so called martyrs. Will the present Sikh scholars, who talk about the freedom of press and welfare of Sikh society, ever gather courage to use their pens to present the disaster of Sikh society correctly to the world? Will they suggest a solid aim or show a path to come out of this disaster?

Here we go again, justifying a defeat. Just proves my point.

Listen loser boy amar jkp.....

edward balfour called 1857 a rebellion....and so did all british officers.... has your bitchass been to school? do you knwo gayatri spivak and the subaltern studies group? read about peasant insurgency in colonial india you dum loser. Go serve the brits you chela. Rajputs and dalits and marathas and gujjars fought british throughout india in 1857...while you and your jatt lot were getting zaildariyaan from the maliks of your riyasat... and about khyber... did your dumass just ignore the feats of the pathanias and the rajputs who have been defeating afghans and arabs hundreds of years before Guru Nanakjis arrival?

You do know that sikhs attacked Ram Singh Pathania under a Brit Lt Gen who got killed by Rajputs right? You coward... Katoch alone defeated Mughals 52 times... Siba Rajputs defeated Maharaja Ranjit Singh too and Mian Dido defeated his army over ten times...what world do you live in? You stupid khalistani fool! You probably think Guru Nanakji named his son Laxmi as an ustat to MONEY right? Because Laxmi means something else other than the devi right?

Also, you probably think Mata Krishan Kaur ji's dad from UP was also a coward hindu like the sikhs who sided with their brit masters in 1857 right? And her naming her son Har Krishan probably has nothing to do with her family roots and identity either right? of course!!! because krishna and laxmi are something else!!! only we fought!! rajputs didnt fight? LMAOOOO ahahahahahah

go read history and stop reading losers like ganda singh who are just trying to cover up treachery of 1857 on one side while promoting KArtar Singh Sarabha who went around telling indian soldiers to mutiny like Bhai Randhir Singh ji.. how do you reconcile the two??? Please do tell!!! please make something up FAST!!!!

[JungChamkaur]

Your stupid rant on Jhansi di Rani has nothingto do with the revolt throughout india......

The Rajputs were the worst class of rebellions during 1857.. killed DOZENS of british officers and destroyed british outposts and police stations and the governing administrative bodies became indigenous albeit for a temporary time. Its called occupying SPACE! its called taking back the land of your forefathers! How do you denigrate hundreds of martyrs like the ones i mentioned above especially when you should know that sikh puppet soldiers were used like the Gurkhas in Jallianwala bahg.

[JungChamkaur]

funny thing about brahmins is that they formed the upper echelons of sikh society throughout sikh history until you khalistani loser fools came around... another post here is about Akali Kaur Singhji... hes the kashmiri bahman you saved right..... yet hes shastardhari himself and the shaheeds in chandi chwok were all bahmans as wel and the mohyals are still bahmans in punjab today.... brahmins are not inherently bad... khalistanis are inherently bad. their like pakistanis who want to destroy the history language culture of the land. mind you punjabi is derived from sanskrit.... have you ever read dasm bani? you apparently think we came from the skies like bird shit.

you khalistani fudu loser ass jatts are nothing..... your ignorant and stupid.. any fudu with a pag comes along and says something and you believe it...

the very faact that you call the armies by their religion shows your a piece of shit dumass loser who needs to get slapped up by some real sikhs. why dont we call ourselves traitors for the actions of patiala then???? i think we should right? because thats what the authors critiqued by gandu singh did. They refer to the betrayal of patiala and other houses as sikh betrayal, so with your logic (you dont have any), their completely right!

sikhs have never been one united army... even during gurus times there have been bad apples. the same applies for everyone... the more and more you try to paint a black and white picture the more your stupidity is displayed and we as sikhs look like islamic bigots who cant think critically.

there have been more sikhs defending the brits after maharaja ranjit singh than ones fighting it... should we call ourselves gaddars? we died fighting wars against hitler and we have house niggers parading around bragging about that contribution...... whata admin cut JOKE! you are proud to DIE FOR YOUR MASTER! STAY IN THE HOUSEEEE NIGGER!

on the one side you have kartar singh sarabha and them trying to get soldiers to mutiny to no avail and the azad hind fauj (you khalistani fudus might as well call the azad hind fauj the "azad sikh fauj" since you like to give new meanings to words whenever it suits your pathetic interests) fighting the brits and then you have 100,000 sikhs dying for their masters in opposition to the same people that are trying to free them... house nigger much?

this same example applies to all other communities in india like rajputs... but they dont lie about and try to paint a black and white picture of history like khalistanis and rss and pakistanis do.

[JungChamkaur]

what went thru your puny brain when you read about the atrocities done by our rajas to the jamwals such as pulling the rajput down by his mustahce? you think thats proper maryada? you dont think people abuse their power? for gods sake ranjitsingh was just like any other feudal lord just trying to expand his rule!! his main enemies were other sikhs and the dogras! (not gulab singh initially). your so stupid its embarrassing. i hope you live near toronto, if you do then we can meet up for some proper SHASTAR PRACTICE

[JungChamkaur]

have you never read about the lodis, the mughals and the turks being defeated SEVERAL times in history? like seriously you need to stop reading the congress version of indian history

[JungChamkaur]

heres more history for you pieces of shit khalistani losers who lie about history liek the congress rss pakis:

1)Maharawal Jaitra Singh's sons, Mulraj and Ratan Singh intercept Allaudin Khilji's army on its way from Sindh and ransack the loot carried by the Muhammadans. The Khilji Turk dispatches his force against Jaisalmer and the Bhatis along with their Chauhan feudatories hold them off for several months until the Muhammadans reluctantly fall back. Many prominent Chauhans and their kin sacrifice their lives for honour and pride here. Meanwhile, the Ruler of Marwar, Rathore Asthan, is slain at Tir Singari, on the eastern borders of Jaisalmer, fighting these same Khilji Turks. Bhati chiefs Duda, Trilok Singh and a few others carry out depredations in the territory of the Punjab and harass the Muhammadans of that area, compelling Firoz Shah Tughlaq to send a strong force against Jaisalmer. BHATINDA ISNT CALLED BHATINDA FOR NO REASON!!!!! PANCHODA! sidhu brar dhaliwal jatts are all their sons! aya bada khalistani sala mayee yava.

2) The Baloch, anxious to capture portions of the Jaisalmer territories, crossed the borders of Sindh under Ali Khan. Manohardas Bhati, the eldest son of Maharawal Kalyan, defeated the Baloch and killed him in battle. Bhati Rai Singh Bhimawat, Sawai Singh and Dhanraj from the Jaisalmer force also met their demise in this action. One more attack was launched by the Muhammadan Baloch under Mughal Khan, who crossed into Bikampur but the Baloch were once again defeated and the Maharawal in a counter offensive burned down many Baloch settlements on the other side of the border.

3)In 1680 Aurangzeb invades Rajputana and Rana Bhim Singh of Mewad, seeking to avenge the Muhammadan's recent destruction of temples in Udaipur and elsewhere, raided Gujarat and plundered Vadnagar, Vishalnagar and Ahemdabad, in the latter place destroying thirty smaller mosques and one large one.

4)According to the Prithvirajavijaya, the Turushkas (Turkics: Muslims) came across Marusthali and were defeated with great slaughter. An inscription gives a graphic description: “The land of Ajmer, soaked with the blood of the Turushkas, looked as if it had dressed itself in a dress of deep-red colour to celebrate the victory of her lord”. The Prithvirajayavijaya also refers to a contest between Ajayaraja and the Garjana Matangas (Ghaznavids: ‘Afghans’) and it continued through the reign of Arnoraja, Ajayaraja’s son.

5) battle of rajasthan - 5000 rajputs made 30,000 arabs flee and bappa rawal went into arab held territories such as khyber and pakhtunkhwa regions and defeated them and made them vassals

6) read about bhai khan marrals letter to jaipur rajputs..... rajputs have pashtun tribals of khyber and FATA under their lordship.... you stupid insolent loser.

7)Meer Bijar Khan becomes involved in hostilities with the Rathods regarding the possession of Amarkot, the former had driven out the Sodha chief upon which the Bhatis and Rathods came to the aid of Amarkot. The Baloch offends the Rathods by asserting demands of tribute from Marwar and a dolah of a Rathod princess. The Rajputs under Bijai Singh wage an offensive against the Baloch chiefs and their Daudputra supporters at Doogara and soundly defeat them. Bijai Singh however was not content until the Baloch would pay with his life for the insult. Two assassins were chosen, both of Rajput stock, one a Bhati and the other a Chundawat who saw to it that Bijar Khan would meet his maker.

8)All through 1858 Begum Hazrat Mahal kept collecting land revenue and the Rajput Chiefs of her army plunged headlong intro destroying British chowkies and thanas. The British lost control of areas around Lucknow and in Talooqa Mahona, Talooqdar Drigh’lai Singh set up his administration whereas in Ruiya (Hardoi, U.P.) Raja Narpat Singh defeated Brigadier-General Walpole and his Scottish Highlanders in a decisive engagement in which Brigadier Adrian Hope and many other British soldiers met their demise. Thakur Gulab Singh was the victor of anti-British skirmishes in Lakshmangarh and Rahimabad (Lucknow, U.P.). Bodies of slain British officers were paraded in towns and qasbas and the infamous Bais Rana Beni Madho Singh also won a few battles before getting down to harassing the enemy by hit and run tactics.

9) Puran Mal, the legitimate son of Rai Silhadi , attacked and captured Chanderi, added to his territory the country around that town and employed many muslim women as dancing girls. News reached Sher Shah while he was in Bengal and the Afghan vowed to avenge the insults meted out to the women of his faith. Raisen was besieged but after much fighting, terms were offered and oaths were taken by the Afghans on their Holy Quran as to allowing safe passage to the Rajputs and their families. Puran Mal agreed to surrender the fort on the condition that his troops, their wives and children, be allowed to leave unmolested. Sher Shah agreed but after consulting with his ministers it was concluded that any pact made with Kafirs (non-believers) became null and void and according to the Mughal historian Abbas, Sher Shah's Afghan troops fell on the Rajputs while the latter were caught off-guard yet managed to fight valiantly as Abbas puts it, “like hogs at bay”; Puran Mal and his men put to sword their women and children and the Hindu Rajputs died fighting to the last man.

10)In the eleventh century A.D. the Tomara Rajputs had to face the onslaughts of the invasions of the Ghaznavi Turks. The Tomara Chief, Anandapala, made an earnest appeal to the Indian rulers for saving North India from these invasions, but nobody responded to his call. After the death of Mahmood in 1030 A.D. his son Masood attacked Hansi and captured it after a tough fight; thereafter he attacked and captured Sirsa which was to be governed in turn by his son Maudood. The struggle for succession after Maudood’s death provided an opportunity for the Tomara Rajputs of Delhi and after a few years in 1043 A.D. as narrated in the TABAQAT-I-AKARI and HUBIB-us-SIYAR, the Tomara Raja of Delhi aroused the spirits of his soldiers and country men by narrating his dreams - that the Devi carried off by Mahmood from Nagarkot (Kangra) had appeared to him and had told him that if he took revenge on Ghazni, she would reappear at the fort of Nagarkot. Soon after the narration of this dream, the Tomara Raja found himself at the head of a large army and marched against Hansi, Thanesar and the other strong-holds held by Maudood who suffered heavy loses and retreated to Ghazni, thus allowing the Tomara Raja to lay siege on Nagarkot (aided by the Raja's of Kangra and Kashmir). After four months the Muhammadan Garrison within the fort laid down their arms and the Katoch Raja was replaced on his hereditary throne.
As recorded in the DIWAN-i-SALMAN in A.D. 1070, the Muhammadans raised another large army under the leadership of Sad-bin-Salman (Mahmood's step brother), he was assisted by Abdool Rashid (a son of Mahmood). They advanced towards the plains of Jalandhar where they were met by the Katoch army on the banks of river Ravi. A battle which eclipses the battles of Rustam and Isfandyar took place. It rages for five days and nights (so much blood flowed into the river Ravi that for many days it rand red). The death toll was almost two thousand soldiers and the Muhammadans lost their Governor Mashtagin Hajab. Historically this the period in which the Katoch Dynasty lost their kingdom of Jalandhar and retired into the hills of the Kangra.

11) "The Rajpoot Talooqdars of the Chehdwara, have been long engaged in plundering the Sayyid proprietors, and seizing upon their lands, two of them, Prithvi Singh and Mrityujaya Singh are always in rebellion. Lately these two men took a large band of their clansmen with guns and attacked two villages of Ailee and Parsoli, in Gonda and killed six persons, plundered all the houses of the inhabitants and destroyed all their crops merely because the Sayyids of these two villages would not settle a boundary dispute in the way proposed to them by the Rajput barons. The lands of the Hassanpur parganah were held in property by the members of a family of Sayyids and had been so for many generations; but neighbouring Rajpoot talooqdars have plundered them of all they had and seized upon their lands by violence. Some they have seized and imprisoned with torture of one kind or another till they signed deeds of sale; others they have murdered with all their families to get secure possession of their lands; others they have despoiled by offering the local authorities a higher rate of revenue for the lands than they could possibly pay." - Sleeman

12) "The estate of Sheobaksh Singh (present day Khairabad, U.P.) is very extensive, the soil is all good, and the plain level, so that every part of it is capable of tillage. He remains as one of the only two refractory Rajput barons in this area. Ratan Singh, the father of Sheobaksh, is said to have been a greater rack-renter, rebel and robber than his son is, and together they rebel against the government of the Nazim by absorbing Khalsa lands into the Rajput fold. He has shut himself up sullenly in his fort, where the Nazim dares not attack him. He is levying contributions from the surrounding villages but has not yet plundered or burnt down any. Sheobaksh Singh was lately in prison for two years but was released on the security of Mitholi's Raja Loneh Singh, of the Ahbans clan of Rajputs, whose wife is his wife's sister. Each has a strong force and a band of steady men. The Nazim has not the means to attack Sheobuksh and dares not attack Loneh Singh." - P.D. Reeves (1849)

13) Sher Shah Afghan invades Marwar at the head of 80,000 Muhammadan horse and is confronted by the Rathod Raja Maldeo in the confines of Ajmer where the Afghan hesitates to attack and stays entrenched for nearly a month. The Muhammadan is put to flight and nearly put to the sword by the Rathods when 12,000 of them almost put an end to his campaigning forcing the Muhammadan to declare that he had nearly lost the empire of Hindostan for a handful of millet. Baba Jaita and Baba Kumpa Singhji were the main shaheed generals of this war and are AMAR.

14) The Nawabiyats of Nahar, Fatehpur and Jhunjhunu were all established by the Naghar (Nagad) Pashtuns who were in the service of the Lodhis. The insolent leader of these brigands at Fatehpur had two darbaris of the Bhojrajka clan murdered which triggered an offensive led by Sheo Singh of Sikar at the head of the Sardars of Shekhawati. Jhunjhunu, another stronghold of these insubordinates, also fell in 1730 when Shardul Singh established Hindu rule here and destroyed all the religious and temporal edifices of the Muhammadans. Needless to say the Naghars along with the Sherwani, Sulemanzai, Alizai, Kakar and Maswani pashtuns fled to Chomu thikana and took up service under the Rajputs of this area. To this day there is a 'Pathan Mohalla' in Chomu where one can find the descendants of the above mentioned Muhammadans.

The Pashtuns, Marathas, George Thomas and Najafkuli Khan, all were humbled by the sons of Shekha. (Shekhawat are KAchwaha Rajpoots also Suraj Bansi like Maharajji Guru Gobind Singhji)

15)Kunwar Singh Parmar of Jagdishpur (Bihar) and his brothers, Amar Singh and Dayal Singh, obtained more success against the English in the battlefield and carried on a more vigorous and extended campaign than any other Indian chiefs of their time. For two years did he fight against them and at Danapur he defeated a European garrison and the Sikhs under Captain Dunbar who were sent to relieve the British force there. Several English officers including Dunbar were killed in this battle where McDonell describes the carnage as such:

“Of the four hundred men who had gone out on the day before, full of health and hope, one half had been left behind to gorge the vultures and jackals, and of those who returned about fifty were wounded."

Kunwar Singh died at the age of eighty due to battle fatigue and his brother Amar Singh carried on the struggle until the Gurkhas of Nepal Tarai captured him once he crossed into their region and handed him over to the English. Amar Singh died at Gorakhpur in 1860.

16) Ahmed Yadgar's Tarikh-e-Salatini Afghana tells us that before the battle at Dholpur between the Lodhis and the Rajputs, Miyan Hussein Khan separated from the army of Ibrahim Lodhi and joined the Rajput camp. Although he himself did not take part in the battle, after the action he sent a message reproaching the Afghan Generalissimo, Miyan Maroof, saying "It is a hundred pities that 30,000 Muhammadan horsemen should have been defeated by so few Hindus". Miyan Hussein was shortly assassinated thereafter by men of Ibrahim Lodhi.

17) The brother of Rana Sanga was one Prithviraj Sisodia. Prithviraj was the eldest son of Rana Rai Mal, a warrior of great renown and the heir apparent to the strongest Hindu empire of its day, Mewad. After killing off the Afghans under their leader Lala Khan, who had wrested Toda from its Solanki overlord, Prithviraj at the head of 5,000 Rajput horse turns his attention towards Malwa and sacks Depalpur capturing Mahmud Shah Khilji and holding him hostage at Chitod for a month until the Muhammadan paid his ransom in horses and was set free.

18) also you seem to have ignored the other comments i made eh LMAO SALA DARPOK CHOORA PANCHOD. whats your pind name and your family name.. ill find out your familys so called bravery asap and then well see how you attack other peoples bravery you coward

19) Rao Raja Ram Pratap Singh of Sikar Thikana marches his force against his relatives at Patodah and Bahtot; the towns being
strongholds of the Thakurs, Doongar Singh and his brothers Jawahar Singh and Bhopal Singh. Doongar Singh, had been the Rissaldar in the Shekhawati Cavalry, and was at this time undergoing imprisonment at Agra, to which he had been sentenced, for an attack on a banker's house at Mathura, with the view of carrying off the banker's daughter. Jawahar Singh along with Bhopal Singh had been driven to outlawry by the destruction of Bahtot and they made a most daring attack on the Agra Jail, the guard of which, for precaution's sake, had been purposely strengthened, and succeeded in resucing Doongar Singh. The brothers surprized the Pay Office at Naseerabad, cut down the guards and carried off about Rs. 52,000 which had only arrived the previous day, for the payment of the troops at the station.

"On 9th August, 1847 Lt. Monk Masson attempted, but in vain, a hot pursuit of Doongar Singh near Didwana. The haughty Rajput would be taken by Lieutenant Edmond J. Hardcastle, with part of the Marwadi force at his paternal estate in Shekhawati. He appears to have been tracked to the village, and was found in a room at the top of the fort. Doongar Singh fired through the loop-holes on the party approaching and killed two men. When Hardcastle and party entered the room where he was, he had a sword and a knife in his hands, declaring that he would kill himself and not be taken alive. After a long parley however he was induced to give himself up, but not before he had stabbed himself in the belly without fatal effect..." - The Indian News, London, 10th January, 1848

20) A Rajput warrior, so long as he did not dishonour his race seemed almost indifferent as to the result of any contest in which he was engaged. The Mahratta thought of nothing but the result, and cared little for the means if he could attain his object. For this he would strain his wits but had not a conception of sacrificing his life, or even his interest, for a point of honour. This difference of sentiment affects the outward appearance of the two nations: there is something noble in the carriage of an ordinary Rajput, and something vulgar in that of the most distinguished Mahratta. - Edward Balfour

21) In 1572, when Raja Jai Chand of Kangra was arrested and sent to Delhi, before leaving he entrusted his son Bidhi Chand to Jaswan’s Raja, Govind Chand. The latter successfully defended the fort against the Mughal army and his stubborn defiance against the Muhammadans eventually forced them to withdraw. - Mark Brentall

22) Khizr Khan Baloch, with five thousand muhammadans crosses the Mehran and invades Khadal Pradesh, the realm of the celebrated Bhati Rajpoots of who, Kelhan, the elder brother of the famed hero, Salivahan, now sits on the gaddi. Under their Maharawal the Rajpoots march against the muhammadans and are victorious following a severe engagement where fifteen hundred Baloch along with their Khan are butchered.

23) The Hindus of Chawal (Maharashtra) came to complain to Raja Jai Singh that the Portuguese were seizing forcibly the sons of the Hindus and making them Christians. This made the Kachawah monarch angry, for he was zealous and steadfast in the Hindu faith and now the Rajput made preparations to send a force against the Portuguese.

24) The Rathod Rao, Karan Singh, was deprived of his estates by Aurangzeb and a plot was made on his life which was thwarted due to the timely intervention by the Hada prince of Bundi. Two eldest sons of Karan Singh sacrificed their lives at Bijapur and the third met an untimely demise at the hands of a most perfidious people possibly to have ever set foot on this earth. Firishtah records that one of the brothers slew an enormous lion in single combat and was thus titled "Kesari"; this same man also obtained great renown according to Firishtah for having killed an Abyssinian Chief who commanded for one of the Marhatta war lords.

"The young desert chieftain, like all his tribe, would find matter for quarrel in the wind blowing in his face. Having received what he deemed an insult from the brother-in-law of the Shahzada Muazzam, in a dispute regarding a fawn, he appealed to his sword, and a duel ensued even in the presence-chamber, in which young Mohan fell. The fracas was reported to his elder brother, Padma, at no distance from the scene. With the few retainers at hand he rushed to the spot, and found his brother bathed in his blood. His antagonist, still hanging over his victim, when he saw the infuriated Rathod enter, with sword and shield, prepared for dreadful vengeance, retreated behind one of the columnsof the Aam Khaas (Deewan). But Padma’s sword reached him and avenged his brother’s death; as the record says, “he felled him to the earth, cleaving at the same place the pillar in twain.” Taking up the dead body of his brother, and surrounded by his vassals, he repaired to his quarters, where he assembled all the Rajputs serving with their contingents, as Jaipur, Jodhpur, Haraoti and harangued them on the insult to their race in the murder of his brother. They all agreed to abandon the king’s army, and retire to their own homes. A noble was sent to expostulate by Prince Muazzam; but in vain; the Rajputs refused to listen and in a body had retired more than twenty miles when Muazzam himself joined them, and concessions and expostulations overcoming them they returned to the camp." - Muhammad Qasim Hindu Shah Astarabadi Firishtah

when your ass is healed from this historical rape of your lies and khalistani propaganda come back for more. there are plenty more where these came from.. apparently your black and white history needs to be raped several times before it gets in your fugly head that you and your khalistani narrative is utter bulshit fuelled by congress versions and rss versions of history.

[Kulsingh5]

JungChamkaur - Fantastic post.

[JungChamkaur]

heres some more pain for the khalistani myth machine:

1. if you think that the Kachwahas of Ambaer and the Tomars of Gwalior were 'slaves' to the Mughals you are extremely ill informed; Did Man Singh Tomar bow to Babur? and as a matter of fact Sawai Jai Singh Kachwaha rebelled against the Mughals with the support of his Sisodia counterpart, Rana Amar Singh II.

Many Kachwahas were trampeled by elephants by the Mughals because they refused to Convert to Islam, this is a fact. I would suggest that you read Khawaja Nizamuddin's Tabaqat-e-Akbari for a better understanding of this.

2. Four thousand Rathore horsemen drew their swrods and charged the Maratha left with wild cries of "Han! Kill them!" Sindhia's batteries ploughed through their dense ranks, opening bloody lanes at each discharge. But heedless of their fallen comrades, the survivors swept up to the Maratha guns, sabred the gunners and still advancing fell upon the supporting infantry. Their terrific impact broke the first line of the Maratha left wing; hundreds of Afghans and Nagas were slain, and even De Boigne's sepoys after firing a few volleys were forced back in confusion along with their Maratha comrades.

The Muhammadan, Rana Khan, sent up reinforcements of Dakhani horse under Shivaji Vittha, Raiji Patil and Khande Hari who ralled the fugitives and renewed the combat. The bloodiest and most obstinate struggle of the day raged here. The situation at one time became so critical that the sons of Murtaza Khan Barech dismounted and fought on foot, which is the last expedient of Indian warriors when driven at bay. The Rathores inflicted over 300 casualties, including Ghazi Khan, Shambhuji Patil, Malhar Rao Pawar, Chimanji Khande Rao.

3. To die fighting is not a misfortune; it is the goal of all Rajput warriors. Nevertheless, to die of decapitation whether on the battlefield or at home is degrading: it violates the warrior’s physical integrity, which is inseperable from his moral integrity. Such humiliation can be erased only by revenge and in some instances retribution was taken by the decapitated body, referred to as the Jhunjhar.

The Bhausahebanchi Bakhar illustrates that prior to fighting Bijai Singh Rathod, Jayapparao Shinde cringes at the fearsome repute of the Rajput soldiers, knowing that his men, used to guerilla tactics, would be no match for them:

“These are Marwadi Rajputs, incredibly valorous; their bodies dance around even if they are beheaded. They also have a lot of firepower. Our people are faint of heart to begin with, with steel weapons; tied to a tree they will uproot it to try to flee.....”

4. Rajput history abounds with heroic tales of the sacrifices which men of honour were prepared to make rather than give a woman of their esteemed house to an inferior of rank. From the shudra Marathas like Holkar and Sindhia to the Sikhs and Gujjars, all made attempts to gain wives from Rajput houses of repute, but all failed miserably. The Rajputs of Katgarh near Nurpur willingly set fire to their houses and immolated their female relatives to avoid the disgrace of a marital alliance with Ranjit Singh of Lahore. When Miyan Padma, a renegade Pathania, married his daughter to this dastard fellow, his brethren, undeterred by the menace of the Sikhs, deprived him and his immediate connections of the Jai Deva and to this day refuse to associate with his descendants. The Raja of Kangra deserted his hereditary kingdom rather than ally his sister to Dhiyan Singh, himself a Miyan of Jamwal stock, but not the equal of the Katoch prince.

The seclusion of the Rajput women is also maintained with severe strictness as a European recalls how on one occasion a Miyan house caught on fire in broad daylight, and rather than come out into the open and be seen by strangers, the women allowed themselves to be burnt alive.

5. Whatever deeds of oppression and of blood may have been enacted at the time, and however the Muhammadan rulers may have chosen to believe, or the Muhammadan historians to represent the Hindus to be a crushed, subdued people, the fact remains beyond dispute that their descendants, in spite of many a subsequent danger, still possess the soil of which it was sought to deprive them; while little but squalid poverty and tottering ruins, represent the once proud sway of the dynasty of Shah Ahmad." - A.K. Forbes

7."It is impossible for me to describe the feats of bravery of the 'zerd kopperah walas' or the enemy forlorn hope. I saw, after their line was broken, fifteen or twenty only return to charge one thousand infantry, and advance to fifteen paces of our line before all were shot." - Benoît de Boigne's Officer

8. Pirates near Dwarka plunder the ship of an Uzbek clergyman. The muhammadan pleads his case with Mahmud Shah Begada who attacks the Rathods of Dwarka led by Bhima Raja. The Rathods put up stubborn opposition against Begada but eventually succumb to his larger army and thus the muhammadans desecrate the temples of the city and plunder its wealth. Bhima Raja is captured but refuses to convert to Islam and is cruelly murdered, having had portions of his body hung over the gates of Ahemdabad.

Seven years would pass until another Rajput would refuse to recite the qalma-e-tayibah. The Chauhans of Champaner under their Rawal, Jai Singh, brought fire and steel to Begada’s door and defeated his chief officer. Begada once again makes infidelity an excuse for attacking the Rajputs and lays siege to Champaner. Women mount the pyre and the Rawal with his clansmen makes a fierce charge on the besiegers. All six of the Rajas who had assembled for the defense of Champaner fell and a large number of the besiegers also met their maker

were not the only kom who knows how to give balidan mr khalistani loser...

8. The concept of brotherhood (bhayad) is extremely strong amongst the Jadeja Rajputs and they hold their Rao (clan leader) in very high regard. The Muslims had taken particular notice of them when in any desperate enterprise several of them, wearing saffron-colored turbans, used to vow to conquer or die and when the fate of a battle went against them and defeat was evident, the Jadejas dismounted, tied their waist-bands together, locked their shields in front of them and grasped their spears in preparation for their final charge at the Muhammadans.

When fifty thousand Mughal troops under their Viceroy, Sarbuland Khan, advanced on the Rao Sahib near Bhuj, the outnumbered Jadeja bhayad stood loyally by his side in full support. They routed the Muhammadans and killed the Khan’s nephew and the Rao Sahib choosing three thousand of the best Jadeja horse and binding round their brows the saffron turban of self-sacrifice, rushed into the enemy’s camp and caused such loss and confusion that the invaders fled and great numbers of them following their Viceory in disorder were pursued and slain.

9. i hope your rear end (your mouth) is torn apart LMAO my first posts on this matter torn you a few new gaping holes, now im just throwing mountains of salt on your wounds:

sikhs are modelled upon the rajput kshatriyas and this is a fact. many of our punjabi tribes are actually descended from rajputs, ask any buddha about this and hell tell you and theyll probably even tell you about marriages with bedi rites and ashes put into the ganga... and speaking of Ganga i hope you remember our Mata, Mata Ganga Ji.

kesar bana, saka, jauhar, sati, singh, shastar vidya, pagri, tilak, jhatka all come form rajput kshatriyas... there is no one else in all of indias history to have these things... these are rajput things adopted by us because we as sikhs believe ANYONE can be a kshatriya and our own pitaji is surajbansi like many rajputs. but since you like to change the definitions of words your afraid of, the surajbansi lineage pitaji talks about is probably different in your eyes right?

9.

Throughout the nineteenth century the Rajputs of Khalapur and their kinsmen were a problem to the British because of their cattle thieving, marauding and unremitting resistance to revenue collectors.

10. Ibn Battuta of Morroco, visited Aligarh (Kol) and its vicinity in 1342. He participated in the defense of the city and was eyewitness to the raids by the Rajputs who would besiege it time and again. “The infidel attack was repulsed after a great loss on both sides, they used to descend from an inaccessible mountain in the region and raid the suburb of Jalali.”

One day while he was still in Jalali and taking rest in a garden he heard the noise of tumult. Mounting on his horse, he galloped to help the local commandant against the “infidels who had attacked one of the villages.” After repulsing the attack he pursued them in which he and his companions were separated. He was left with only five men and the party was again ambushed by some horsemen. Battuta had now to flee for his life and he took refuge in a huge ditch to hide himself from his pursuers who were constantly after him. After losing his way, he came out of the valley but writes in his journal, “as I walked there fell upon me about forty stalwart infidels armed with bows”, and he was made captive. Battuta begged for his life and the Hindus gave the traveler bread of peas to eat. The next day one of them “a young man of beautiful countenance” having pity on him, let Battuta escape but the Muhammadan overcome with fear wandered aimlessly as if his God had abandoned him in the country of these "infidels".

11. The Chauhans of Shivala are heroes of the1857 uprising, it was their ancestors, Mehtab Singh and Naubat Singh, who sacrificed their lives and were hanged by the British government at the Tehsil headquarters of Khair.

12. In 1897, a mad mullah began to advocate in the villages of the Lower Swat Valley that the tribesmen were obligated by their religion to come together and wage a holy war against the infidels. The mad muhammadan gathered thousands of Pashtuns and attacked the military posts at Chakdara and Malaqand. The 38th Dogras cleared these fanatical Pashtuns from their key positions and the ferocity of the Dogra attack was such that the enemy was seen running to and fro in great confusion and was put to flight.

A few years later the Dogras brought the Mehsood tribe of Pashtuns to their knees and were particularly responsible for dealing heavy losses to their ranks, forcing them to negotiate for peace.

13. Actions of the enemy could be seen for miles from Pathania Jagat Singh’s fort at Taragarh and thus did the Mughals lay siege to it for over a decade without any progress. Mughalia Syed Khan, Bahadur Khan and Asalat Khan were sent at the head of twelve thousand men to defeat the Rajputs but on this particular occasion several of the Muhammadan commanders met their ruin including Khusroh Beg and Asauf Khan.

The Mughals were awe struck by the impregnable forts of the Pathania monarch and therefore had the ones at Maukot and Noorpur completely demolished and had a few enclosure walls at Taragarh knocked down, the fort itself was never seized nor captured.

14. “My tribe has been connected with your august family from olden times. My ancestors, through the patronage and mediation of the late Maharajah Maan Singh, became mansabdars of the Emperor. I wish to present myself before you, enter your service and thus manifest our old devotion.” – Bhai Khan Maral (pathan lord)

15. Chamba is one of the very few hill kingdoms which was spared the destruction and raiding which followed the Muhammadan, and to a lesser extent, Sikh invasions. The temples here are preserved since many centuries with almost no signs of defacement. The Rajputs here are a small community numerically but they occupy a prominent position in the State, owing to the ruling house being from them, claiming lineage from the Chiefs of Udaipur in Rajputana.

Narayan Shah, a Brahman representative of the Sikhs, was the relative of Pandit Jala, a senior minister who manipulated absolute power in the Lahore court. Narayan, also known as Lakar Shah, managed to acquire so much influence in Chamba that the whole State administration was practically in his hands. The Rajputs of Chamba disliked him for his arrogance, and took counsel with the queen to have him killed. Receiving the news of his nephew’s death, Pandit Jala sent a Sikh army to invade Chamba and the capital was looted; however the Rajputs held the invaders at bay from the Taragarh Fort and obstructed further encroachment into the Kingdom.

16. Shahabuddin Ghori invaded the Chalukya (Solanki) kingdom of Gujrat and was dealt a complete defeat --- “The army of Islam was put to route, and the Sultan of Ghazni returned without accomplishing his designs.”

17. The Mughals did not at all relish the independence of Madhukar Shah and Akbar sent his armies thrice to overcome the Bundela ruler. They conquered almost all the principalities between Orchah and Gwalior but later on the stubborn Madhukar Shah took back some of them. Madhukar Shah’s son Bir Singh remained undaunted just as his predecessor, and defeated the Mughals repeatedly. In 1602 Bir Singh murdered Akbar’s most favored minister, Sheikh Abu Fazl, who tried to launch an attack on the former’s brother, Indrajit Singh.

18. Tilak Singh Bhati of Jaisalmer attacks Ajmer and carries off Feroz Shah Khilji’s stud from Ana Sagar. This indignity to the muhammadan provokes another attack on Jaisalmer and sixteen thousand women mount the pyre whilst seventeen hundred Bhatis under their Rawal, Dudu Singh and his brother Tilak Singh make a final charge at the enemy. Jaisalmer would next be recovered by the Rajputs under Rawal Ghar Singh who would slaughter the army of the Tatar, Aebak Khan. Rawal Chachak Deo of Marot would later lead the Bhatis against overwhelming odds in opposition to the muhammadans of the Panjab under their Khokar chief of Multan and his allies. The Bhatis would emerge victorious and set up garrisons across the Panjab.

19. Of the many Rajput jagirdars and thikanedars who became rebellious and opposed the British was one Rana Ratan Singh Sodha of Amarkot. The Rana has been termed by them as being one of the most troublesome of the Rajput chiefs. Ratan Rana, as he was popularly known, answered the troubles of his people who were suffering many atrocities at the hands of the local British servant, Sayyid Muhammad Ali (Tax Collector at Amarkot). The Rana killed the Sayyid for his crimes against the populace (both Muslim and Hindu) and was later deemed an outlaw by the firangi government. Twrat, the then British political agent stationed at Ajmer, got the Rana entrapped through treachery and in 1866 after a summary trial, the Sodha sardar was hanged to death while his men under Bhaguji were sent into exile to Kala-Pani.

20. The dejected Mughalia summons Rustam Khan appointing him as the Subedar of Ajmer with the task of pacifying the Hindua Suraj Hindupati. The Kachawah Rajputs revolt at Sherpura and to his detriment, Rustam Khan met his ruin at the hands of these turbulent Rajputs.

21. Bappa, seventh in line from Guha, on hearing that the Arabs had crossed into Mewar, collected a following and inflicted a crushing defeat on them and raised himself to the throne and from him do the Ranas of Udaipur lineally descend. The Arabs in India never recovered from this reverse…The Rajputs in Sindh rose successfully against them in 750 A.D. and on their attempting to re-enter India through Kabul, under Harun al Rashid (relative of the Abassid Caliph), The Rajputs at once set out against them, and led by Prince Khoman of Chitod finally expelled them in 812 A.D.

22. From the very beginning Maharana Fateh Singh was not reconciled to Pannalal and was particularly displeased with his overbearing attitude. It seems, the Maharana, at the very outset, drew a definite conclusion, learning from the past history, about the post of the Prime Ministership. He decided in his mind to do away with the services of Rai Pannalal and along with him the post of Prime Ministership as well. He decided to be the Prime Minister of his own. If Fateh Singh was slow in taking decision he was firm in their execution. Once he got rid of Panna Lal, he never, throughout the next thirty years of his reign, employed an official as the Prime Minister despite continuous threats of the British Political Officers.

24. Kumbha is like the mountain Sumeru for the churning of the sea of Malwa. He humbled its sultan, Mahmud Khilji.

• He also destroyed other lowly Muslim rulers (of the neighborhood). He uprooted Nagaur.

• Nagaur was centre of the Muslims. Kumbha uprooted this tree of evil and its branches and leaves were automatically destroyed.

dont forget about hemu who defeated afghans and mughals 22 times in a row either, btw he was a brahmin.

Edited September 11, 2014 by JungChamkaur

[Amandeep Hindustani]

I will mention two more - Hemu Chandra and Khusro Khan.

Khusro Khan is an interesting case. Here was a Hindu child that was abducted by the moslems, raped, assaulted by the Sultan and his men for

years.

Until he grew up, captured power in Delhi, converted back to Hinduism and installed idols at Jama Masjid, burned the masjid and made his

ministers sit on and step on Korans amongst other things.

“In those dreadful days the infidel rites of the Hindus were highly exalted, the dignity and the importance of the Parwárís were increased, and through all the territory of Islám the Hindus rejoiced greatly, boasting that Dehlí had once more come under Hindu rule, and that the Musulmáns had been driven away and dispersed”. (Baranī)

t so happens that a young lad with charming features was enslaved by the Muslim conquerors ofPatan (in present day Gujarat) c. 1297, and presented to Sultan Alauddin Khilji, after being converted to Islam and named Hasan. Inside the royal household, Hasan became a favoruite of Mubarak, Alauddin’s son, who subsequently conferred upon his sex slave and confidante, the title of Khusro Khan, and entrusted him with military missions and policies pertaining to administration. It is said that Khusro Khan was instrumental in the assassination of Alauddin Khilji and he did kill Mubarak Shah, thereby bringing an end to the Khilji dynasty. Khusro Khan did so with the aid of QueenDevala Devi, another enslaved Hindu princess, forcibly betrothed, first to Alauddin’s elder son Khizr Khan and then included in Mubarak Shah’s harem when the later killed his elder brother.

The coup that Khusro Khan and Devala Devi staged did not just bring about the downfall of the Khilji dynasty, but also, albeit briefly, restored Hindu rule in Delhi, because soon after claiming the throne,Khusro Khan is said to have made a declaration to the effect of him renouncing the religion forced upon him (Islam) and him assuming the rule of India as a Hindu ruler with Devala Devi as his wife and also a reconvert to Hinduism.

Khusro Khan is known to have assumed the title of Nasiruddin which means ‘defender of the faith’. It is strange that he would assume such a title right after publicly renouncing the faith; however, his actions were indeed in keeping with his declaration. Khusro Khan or Sultan Nasiruddin is remembered for his policy of religious tolerance and liberal administrative policies. He revoked several taxes which at the time were a burden for his people, including the notorious Jaziya levied on Hindus. He is known to have advocated a more respectful attitude towards women and a more benignant treatment of slaves. It is to be noted that the sources of most of these information are the chronicles of Muslim scholars, chiefly of Muhammad Qasim Farishta (from his Tareekh-e-Farishtah) and Ziauddin Barani, both of whom held a critiquing view of a Kafir ruler, a reconvert, who, at least to Farishta, ‘was a shemale’. Hence we may safely assume that many of Khusro Khan’s virtues were deliberately overlooked by these scholars.

It may also have been that Khusro Khan was not a ‘shemale’ contrary to Farishta’s claims (which he did perhaps out of malice) and that the love story involving him and Devala Devi may have been true, given that he married her when he became king. If that was indeed the case, it makes him an even more extraordinary character, for he ordered sex slaves to be treated with respect and dignity, and almost half of the sex slaves at that time were castrated males or naturally born members of the third sex. So, through his own life or through his policies, Khusro Khan, the once Delhi Sultan, consolidated the position of the third sex in the society, and showed the world that people, who are neither male, nor female, are still humans, with a feeling, beating heart and a functioning brain that, when harnessed and channeled well can wield a sword and a scepter and rule a nation with equanimity and respect for civil liberties.
