The village of Bijraul, on the outskirts of Meerut district
in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, had a small celebration on 10 May
to mark the 160th anniversary of the uprising of 1857
- a rebellion against the rule of the British East India Company.
Re: Kwami and Baba Shah - ketchim - 07-13-2017
The residents of the village paid tributes to their ancestor Shah Mal
for his role in the revolt. He inspired thousands of peasants across nearly
84 villages to leave their fields and take up arms in 1857.........

"People of the district were in a fever of excitement to know whether
'their raj' or ours was to triumph,"
wrote Robert Henry Wallace Dunlop, a civil officer, in Service and Adventure
with the Khakhee Resallah, a record of the corps formed to quell the uprising !
