Vijay Singh Gujjar
Vijay Singh Gurjar was from Kunja Bahadurpur. Family After death of Ram Dayal, British reassessed his estate and decided that many of the villages were not his property. Thus, in 1813 British cancelled contracts of many villages which were with Ram Dayal. The administrative setup implemented land reforms and granted villages to the village officials, rather than being under one person. Still, a sizeable number of villages were left in hands of the widow of Ram Dayal, his son Badan Singh and 6 other Taluqdars. In 1817, Chaudhari Vijay Singh, a remote cousin of Ram Dayal succeeded to one of these Taluqa, Kunja Bahadurpur covering 33 villages and paying 22,000 rupees annually to British. He wrote to British Collector Archibald Murray, narrating story of his hardship as he had to dispose of his horses, valuables to repay his debt.

History Of India
According to consensus in modern genetics, anatomically modern humans first arrived on the Indian subcontinent from Africa between 73,000 and 55,000 years ago. Quote: "Y-Chromosome and Mt-DNA data support the colonization of South Asia by modern humans originating in Africa. ... Coalescence dates for most non-European populations average to between 73–55 ka." However, the earliest known human remains in South Asia date to 30,000 years ago. Settled life, which involves the transition from foraging to farming and pastoralism, began in South Asia around 7000 BCE. At the site of Mehrgarh presence can be documented of the domestication of wheat and barley, rapidly followed by that of goats, sheep, and cattle. By 4500 BCE, settled life had spread more widely, and began to gradually evolve into the Indus Valley civilisation, an early civilisation of the Old World, which was contemporaneous with Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.

Year Of Birth Missing
A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, as do the Julian calendars. For the Gregorian calendar, the average length of the calendar year (the mea ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
