29 May 1658 in History of India and Jat History

Samugarh is a town about 20 km east of Agra, south of the Yamuna River. It is known for the Battle of Samugarh which took place on May 29, 1658. Samugarh was a tipping point in India’s history which is associated with Jat History as well.

Battle of Samugarh: The battle of Samugarh, Jang-e-Samugarh, (May 29, 1658), was a decisive battle in the struggle for the throne during the Mughal war of succession (1658–1659) between the sons of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan after the emperor's serious illness in September 1657. The battle of Samugarh was fought between his sons Dara Shikoh (the eldest son and heir apparent) and his two younger brothers Aurangzeb and Murad Baksh (third and fourth sons of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan).[SUP][1][/SUP][SUP][2]

[/SUP] Two great Mughal armies, led by Shah Jahan’s eldest son Dara Shikoh and his third son Aurangzeb, clashed on a dusty plain 20 km southeast of Agra. It was not only a battle for the Mughal throne, but a battle for the very soul of India. Dara was on the brink of victory when he was betrayed by one of his commanders, Khalilullah Khan. He then retreated to Lahore and then down the Indus. Eventually, he was brought to Delhi and put on trial. [SUP][3][/SUP]

Dara Shikoh began to retreat towards Samugarh, about 20 km east of Agra, south of the Yamuna River, after Aurangzeb had defeated Dara Shikoh's forces during the Battle of Dharmat. Aurangzeb and his smaller but formidable army then flanked Dara’s fortified line along the Chambal River by finding a little-known and unguarded ford. The battle was fought during northern India's warmest season and Aurangzeb's men were on the march for a very long while. The army of Aurangzeb arrived with yellow banners and flags and fortified their position in front of the heir apparent. Dara Shikoh then tried to protect his rear flank by erecting massive red tents and banners.

The outcome of the battle was decided when Dara Shikoh's descended from his Elephant Howdah at the most critical moment of the battle, his elephant then quickly fled from the battlefield. Fleeing elephant was evidence enough for Dara Shikoh's troops who mistook this event to indicate his death. Thousands of Dara Shikohs forces surrendered to Aurangzeb when the Mughal military band of Aurangzeb played the ode of victory. Many more Sepoys and Sowars fled only to take the oath of allegiance to Aurangzeb later on. If Dara Shikoh had won at Samugarh his rule might have promoted harmony between India’s turbulent peoples. A united Mughal empire may have prevented India from becoming so easily colonised by European powers. Samugarh marked the beginning of Islamic bigotry that led over the centuries to the Partition of India, the creation of Pakistan and the backlash of radical Hinduism. Samugarh was a tipping point in India’s history. [SUP][4][/SUP]

Gohad Jat zamindar helps Aurangzeb

One incident has been mentioned by Ishwar Das is that when Prince Aurangzeb, on his way to oppose Dara Shikoh, came to the fords of Chambal, he found them barred by the opposite entrenchment. He was ignorant about other ferries, while the waters were deep. This perturbed Aurangzeb. At this critical juncture Hathi Singh Jat, a zamindar of Gohad, came forward to lead his troops to a neglected ford (Kanira), where from Aurangzeb crossed the Chambal. Though by itself a small incident, it in one stroke turned the scales against Dara Shikoh. He had to hurry up for the Capital, leaving heavy artillery behind, which greatly weakened his position.

Churaman plundered sons of Aurangzeb

Ram Sarup Joon[SUP][7][/SUP] tells that ...In 1704, he regained the fort of Sinsini from the Moguls. When a war was going on between Bahadur Shah and Azam, the two sons of Aurangzeb, Churaman plundered both the armies near Samugarh. Later, Bahadur Shah, who emerged victorious offered to appoint him Sardar of 500 horsemen, and 1,000 footmen to win over his support. This lure, however, did not work with Churaman and he remained independent.

Satish Dagar - Dy.S.P. CBI who probed the Baba Ram Rahim rape case and sent him to Jail.

डेरा प्रमुख गुरमीत राम रहीम मामले को अंजाम तक पहुंचाने वाला असली हीरो ....सीबीआई के जाबांज़ डीएसपी सतीश डागर न होते तो यह केस अपने मुकाम पर नहीं पहुंच पाता. सतीश डागर ने ही साध्वियों को सामने आने के लिए मानसिक रूप से तैयार किया था. सतीश डागर नहीं होते ये लोग खौफ का सामना नहीं कर पाते. सतीश डागर पर भी बहुत दबाव पड़ा, मगर वे नहीं झुके. बड़े-बड़े आईपीएस ऐसी हिम्मत नहीं जुटा पाते हैं मगर डीएसपी सतीश डागर ने कमाल का साहस दिखाया है. पहले पंचकूला से सीबीआई की कोर्ट अंबाला में थी. जब ये लोग वहां सुनवाई के लिए जाते थे तब वहां भी बाबा के समर्थकों की भीड़ आतंक पैदा कर देती थी. हालत यह हो गई कि जिस दिन सुनवाई होती थी और बाबा की पेशी होती थी उस दिन अंबाला पुलिस लाइन के भीतर एसपी के ऑफिस में अस्थायी कोर्ट बनाया जाता था. छावनी के बाहर समर्थकों का हुजूम होता था. ऐसी हालत में उन दो साध्वियों ने गवाही दी और डटी रहीं, आसान बात नहीं उस बाबा के खिलाफ जिससे मिलने कांग्रेस, भाजपा के बड़े-बड़े नेता सलामी देने जाते हैं

this is what I call vote bank of any political winner especially in today's case of Modi Government. Great goings, but I am assured by administrative class who ignore biasness of any powerful force, and is devoted in their ownership.
 
We feel proud of Judge Jagdip Singh and Police Officer Satish Dagar. We still have such brave, honest and impartial personalities.
 
रियासती भारत के जाट जन सेवक, 1949 पुस्तक में राजस्थान से स्वतन्त्रता आंदोलन में भाग लेने वाले तथा जाट जागृति में सहयोग करने वाले सभी महानुभावों का परिचय दिया गया है। ठाकुर देशराज ने राजस्थान के जाटों में सामाजिक और राजनैतिक क्रांति पैदा की और एक बहादुर कौम को नींद से जगाया। राजस्थान के अलावा पुस्तक में पंजाब, मध्यभारत, बुंदेल खंड की रियासतों के जाटों की आधुनिक गतिविधियों का संक्षिप्त इतिहास भी दिया गया है। यहाँ जाटलैंड पर पुस्तक से पृष्ठवार संक्षिप्त विवरण दिया जा रहा है।
 
रियासती भारत के जाट जन सेवक, 1949 संपादक: ठाकुर देशराज [पृ.4] पर लिखते हैं :

यह कड़वी सचाई है कि जाट कौम में साहित्यिक रुचि नहीं है इसलिए उन्हें अपने कारनामे लेखबद्ध कराने व देखने की रुचि नहीं है। इस प्रकार की गलती ने उनके दर्जे को घटाया ही है। लोगों की इस ओर विशेष रुचि न होते हुये भी लेखक को यह पुस्तक लिखनी पड़ी है।


एक समय आएगा जब यह पुस्तक हमारे गौरव को बढ़ाने में सहायक होगी और इस जमाने के लोगों की व हमारी भावी पीढ़ी में उत्साह और प्रेरणा पैदा करने का काम देगी। आने वाली संतान अपने उन पूज्यों को सराहेगी जिन्होने इस जमाने में कुछ काम किया है।
