It would have remained a mere speck on the map had it not been for the fact that it is the birthplace of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (b 28 May 1883). Originally from Savarwadi, a small hamlet in Guhagar tehsil in Konkan (coastal Maharashtra), Savarkar's ancestors migrated to Bhagur during the time of Peshwa Bajirao I. In recognition of their valour, Savarkar's ancestors had received Bhagur and Rahuri villages as prize. On one occasion, Savarkar's ancestors defeated a band of dacoits and brought home a 45 cm high copper idol of the eight-armed Ashtabhuja Devi. This goddess thus became the family deity of the Savarkars. Bhagur was also the birthplace of Savarkar's illustrious brothers, the elder Ganesh or Babarao and the youngest Narayan or Balarao and also that of his younger sister Maina or Mai. Thus, Bhagur has the distinction of being the birthplace of three heroic patriots.

His infant son was hacked to pieces in front of him & the heart into his mouth. Then his legs & arms were hacked, his eyeball was pulled out, through out this Banda sat unmoved. Too bad Indians are busy worshipping third rate Bollywood sluts & the Khans instead of remembering him. Banda shook up the Mullah class for the 7 years he was active, to date he remains one of the most hated if not the most hated by Panjabi ...Muslims. It was the first and ONLY time when Muslims got a taste of their own medicine for a sustained amount of time because of his tit for tat policy. He also abolished the Zamindari system, the primary beneficaries being the Hindu-Sikh tillers with the big losers being the Muslim zamindars. http://dharmayuddha.wordpress.com/2010/11/05/banda-bahadurs-letter-to-sawai-jai-singh-of-amber/ Bandi Bir - à ¤¬à ¤âà ¤¦à ¥⬠à ¤µà ¥â¬Ã ¤° (An imprisoned warrior) - Ballad of Sri Banda Bairagi by Rabindranath Tagore http://kalchiron.blogspot.com/2011/05/band-bir-rabindranath-tagore.html Above also has an English translation.

Today July 23rd, 1906 was born Chandrashekhar Azad. Today July 25th, 1583 Hindus of Cuncolim rise up and kill their Christian oppressors. Let us remember the noble souls. Quote:In 1583, 5 jesuit priests led by Fr. Rudolfo Aquaviva received orders from their superior to go to Salcette to maintain law and order, destroy temples, construct churches and effect conversions. They chose Cuncolim to make their first survey of the situation, as they saw it as an ideal ground for constructing a church.[11] |
