Capture of Mathura by Nasiru-d din Sabuktigin
Abú Nasr Muhammad ibn Muhammad al Jabbáru-l 'Utbi was Secretary to Sultan Mahmud. His work comprises the whole of the reign of Nasiru-d din Sabuktigin, and part of that of Mahmud of Ghazni.
Capture of Mathura has been mentioned as under:
They placed behind their backs the river Jún (Jamna), crossing it on the 20th of Rajab, 409 H., 2nd December, 1018 A.D.
The Sultan then departed from the environs of the city, in which was a temple of the Hindus. The name of this place was Maharatu-l Hind. He saw there a building of exquisite structure, which the inhabitants said had been built, not by men, but by Genii, and there he witnessed practices contrary to the nature of man, and which could not be believed but from evidence of actual sight. The wall of the city was constructed of hard stone, and two gates opened upon the river flowing under the city, which were erected upon strong and lofty foundations, to protect them against the floods of the river and rains. On both sides of the city there were a thousand houses, to which idol temples were attached, all strengthened from top to bottom by rivets of iron, and all made of masonry work ; and opposite to them were other buildings, supported on broad wooden pillars, to give them strength.
In the middle of the city there was a temple larger and firmer than the rest, which can neither be described nor painted. The Sultan thus wrote respecting it : —
"If any should wish to construct a building equal to this, he would not be able to do it without expending an hundred thousand thousand red dinars, and it would occupy two hundred years, even though the most experienced and able workmen were employed."

Hindu Jats killed Ahmad Nialtigin
.... Five years afterwards we read of Tilak, son of Jai Sen, commander of all the Indian troops in the service of the Ghaznivide monarch, being employed to attack the rebel chief, Ahmad Nialtigin. He pursued the enemy so closely that many thousands fell into his hands. Ahmad himself was slain while attempting to escape across a river, by a force of Hindu Jats, whom Tilak had raised against him. This is the same Tilak whose name is written in the Tabakat-i Akhari, as Malik bin Jai Sen, which, if correct, would convey the opinion of the author of that work, that this chief was a Hindu convert. (see on Jatland Wiki - [wiki]The history of India : as told by its own historians. Volume II/III. Tarkhhu-s Subuktigin of Baihaki[/wiki], p.60)
Ahmad Niyaltigin (Persian: احمد نیالتگین ) was a treasurer of Sultan Mahmud Ghaznavi and later of his son Sultan Mas'ud Ghaznavi. Sultan Masud appointed him governor of Punjab region in 1033. Ahmad Niyaltigin with small detachment of soldiers conquered Varanasi but withdrew back to Punjab.
In 1034, Governor Ahmad Niyaltigin made daring attack at Varanasi but immediately withdrew back to Punjab region with plunder. Niyaltigin did not remit part of this plunder to Sultan Mas'ud Ghaznavi. Sultan considered it as rebellious act of Governor Niyaltigin. Sultan Mas'ud Ghaznavi commanded General Tilak Rai, one of his Hindu generals to arrest Governor Niyaltigin. Tilak Rai pursued Ahmad with a large body of men, chiefly Hindus, Ahmad Niyaltigin was killed and his head was taken to Ghazni.

Kamilu-t Tawarikh of Ibn Asir (See - [wiki]The history of India : as told by its own historians. Volume II/VI. Kamilu-t Tawarikh of Ibn Asir[/wiki]) provides us following references to Jats:
Reference to Jats in Kamilu-t Tawarikh of Ibn Asir
[p.245]: The Kamilu-t Tawarikh enjoys a very high reputation, and has been much used and quoted both in Asia and Europe. Ibn Khaldun borrowed largely from it, and it has been drawn upon by Ockley for his History of the Saracens, by Malcolm for the History of Persia, and by Weil for his Geschichte der Chalifen. The narrative is very clear and succinct, but the work, from its great range, is very voluminous. It contains a few brief notices of the Jats in the second and third centuries of the Hijra, and it also gives some interesting details of the Arab occupation of Sind,..
Hijra 219. A.D. 834. — War against the Jats
[p.247]: In the month of Jumada-l akhir, Al M'utasim sent 'Ajif bin 'Isa to fight against the Jats, who had seized upon the roads of Hajar, and had plundered the corn which was in the stacks of Kaskar, and in the stores of the towns. They spread terror over the roads, and planted posts in all directions towards the desert. At the news of the approach of Ajif they retired. Ajif marched to below Wásit and there took post on the river Bardád and Anhárá. Then they retreated and entered another place, but the roads baffled them. Ajif then forced 1,500 of them to fight, and killed on the field of battle 300 men. Their leaders he made prisoners, and sent the chief to the gate of M'utasim. Ajif was engaged against the Jats twenty-five days, and vanquished a great many of them. The chief of the Jats was Muhammad bin 'Usman, and the commander was Samlu. Ajif then took up a position, and remained opposed to them seven mouths. Mansur bin Bassdm was at Musal...

[p. 247- 248]: In this year Ajif came to Baghdad from his expedition against the Jats, after having defeated and killed many of them. The remnant was compelled to ask quarter, which was conceded to them. They then marched away with him in Zi'l hijja, 219 (834 A.D.) and their number, including women and children, was twenty-seven thousand. The fighting men among them were twelve thousand. Ajif placed his conquered foes in boats, and sent them dressed as they had appeared in battle, with their trumpets, to Baghdad. They reached that city on the tenth Muharram, 220. They proceeded in boats to the Shammásiya (suburb of Baghdad). The Jats were accoutred as for battle, and were blowing their horns And Azif gave to each of his men two dinars (as a present). The Jats stayed on board their ships three days, and were then handed over to Bishr ibnu-s Samaida', who conveyed them to Khanikin. Thence they were removed to the (northern)

As the terrorists were leaving the village in the early hours the next day, he sprang the ambush. In the firefight he personally killed two terrorists in the narrow bylanes of the village but in the process received three bullet injuries. Ignoring his injuries he motivated his troops to surround and prevent the third terrorist from escaping. Lobbing grenades and with tremendous effort he closed in on the third terrorist, killing him at close quarters.

Amir Banji Naharan
Amir Banji Naharan was a great chief, and his history is well known in Ghor in Afghanistan. He is considered one of the greatest king's of that territory, and all its kings are descended from him.
Note - this is text from [wiki]The history of India : as told by its own historians. Volume II/VIII. Tabakat-i Nasiri of Minhaju-s Siraj[/wiki], p.282 available on Jatland.
This probably shows presence of Some Nehra Rulers in Afghanistan who converted to Muslims later.

Martyr of Kargil War
On May 15, 1999 Saurabh Kalia along with five soldiers - [wiki]Sepoys Arjun Ram[/wiki], [wiki]Banwari Lal Bagaria[/wiki], [wiki]Bhikha Ram Moondh[/wiki], [wiki]Moola Ram Bidiyasar[/wiki] and [wiki]Naresh Singh Sinsinwar[/wiki] of the 4 Jat Regiment had gone for a routine patrol of the Bajrang Post in the Kaksar sector in the rugged, treeless Ladakh mountains. After a continuous cross fire with Pakistan armed forces from across the LoC, he and his troops ran out of ammunition. They were finally encircled by a platoon of Pakistan rangers and captured alive before any Indian reinforcement could reach for their help. No trace of this entire patrol was left meanwhile Radio Skardu of Pakistan announced that Captain Saurabh Kalia had been captured by the Pakistani troops. It was after this that India discovered hundreds of guerrillas had established fortified positions on the peaks of the hills deep inside the Indian side of the Line of control, with sophisticated equipment and supply lines back to Pakistan-controlled Kashmir.
Captain Kalia and his men were in captivity for over twenty-two (May 15, 1999 – June 7, 1999) days and subjected to torture as evident from their bodies handed over by Pakistan Army on June 9, 1999. The postmortem revealed that the Pakistan army had tortured their prisoners by burning their bodies with cigarettes, piercing ear-drums with hot rods, puncturing eyes before removing them, breaking most of the teeth and bones, fractures of the skull, cutting the lips, chipping of nose, chopping off limbs and private organs of these soldiers besides inflicting all sorts of physical and mental tortures and finally shooting them dead, as evidenced by the bullet wound to the temple. The postmortem report also confirmed that injuries were inflicted ante-mortem (before death)
Note - We could identify their clans and more details and We have created pages for these Martyrs on Jatland. There is a page on Jatland - [wiki]Martyrs of Kargil war [/wiki]. Members having their details and images can upload on Jatland. That will be a great tribute to them !!!

Dr Hari Singh Nalwa
Dr. Hari Singh Nalwa is the President & CEO of American Scientific Publishers (www.aspbs.com) based in Los Angeles, California, USA which he founded in 2000. He belongs to Soop village of Meerut district in Uttar Pradesh (UP). He is a citizen of the United States of America.
Dr. Nalwa was born into a farmer family in a small remote village Soop of the Meerut District in Uttar Pradesh (UP), India. Both of his parents (father: Kadam Singh and mother: Sukh Devi) were illiterate. He was born with the name “Hari Singh.” He greatly admired Hari Singh Nalwa (1791–1837), a Commander-in-Chief of the Khalsa, the army of the Sikh Empire. In high school, he decided to add “Nalwa” (which means tiger) to the end of his name, even though his original last name is “Tomar” therefore, his full name should be “Hari Singh Tomar” (where Tomar is his gotra, or clan).
We are proud of him.

Dr. Nalwa was born into a farmer family in a small remote village Soop of the Meerut District in Uttar Pradesh (UP), India. Both of his parents (father: Kadam Singh and mother: Sukh Devi) were illiterate. He was born with the name “Hari Singh.” He greatly admired Hari Singh Nalwa (1791–1837), a Commander-in-Chief of the Khalsa, the army of the Sikh Empire. In high school, he decided to add “Nalwa” (which means tiger) to the end of his name, even though his original last name is “Tomar” therefore, his full name should be “Hari Singh Tomar” (where Tomar is his gotra, or clan).
We are proud of him.
