paapiman Posted February 16, 2022 Report Share Posted February 16, 2022 @dalsingh101 - Heard about this assassination? A Pathan did it. Quote In February 1872, Lord Mayo, Governor-General of India, was assassinated at the penal settlement of Port Blair in the Andaman Islands whilst paying a viceregal visit to the Province of British Burma. His assassin, a Pathan from North West India who had been in the Peshawar police, made no attempt to escape. He had been serving a life sentence for murder, a murder of which he had declared himself ‘Not Guilty’.

Daas heard about this incident in Katha by a Naamdhariya. It was in the same year 1872 that Baba Raam Singh jee Naamdhari were exiled to Burma. Daas is not sure if there is any connection there. Did the Pathan knew Baba jee? Bhul chuk maaf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
