'''Chhatarpur''' is a city and a [[municipality]] in [[Chhatarpur district]] in the state of [[Madhya Pradesh]], [[India]]. It is the administrative headquarters of [[Chhatarpur District]].

==History==
{{main|Chhatarpur State}}
Chhatarpur was founded in 1785 and is named after leader [[Maharaja Chhatrasal|Chhatrasal]], the founder of [[Bundelkhand]] independence, and contains his [[cenotaph]]. The state was ruled by his descendants until 1785. At that time the [[Ponwar]] clan of the [[Rajput]]s took control of Chhatarpur. The state was guaranteed to [[Kunwar Sone Singh Ponwar]]<ref>[http://uqconnect.net/~zzhsoszy/ips/c/chhatarpur.html] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080623182153/http://uqconnect.net/~zzhsoszy/ips/c/chhatarpur.html |date=23 June 2008 }}</ref> in 1806 by the [[British Raj]].
In 1854 Chhatarpur would have lapsed to the British government for want of direct heirs under the [[doctrine of lapse]], but was conferred on Jagat Raj as a special act of grace. The [[Pawar|Ponwar]] Rajas ruled a [[princely state]] with an area of {{convert|1118|sqmi|km2}}, and population of 156,139 in 1901, which was part of the Bundelkhand agency of [[Central India Agency|Central India]].

In 1901 the town of Chhatarpur had a population of 10,029, a high school and manufactured paper and coarse cutlery. The state also contained the British cantonment of [[Nowgong, Chhatarpur|Nowgong]].<ref>{{cite EB1911|wstitle=Chhatarpur|volume=6|page=116}}</ref>

===Rajas===

*1785–1816 Kunwar Sone Shah (d. 1816)
*1816–1854 Partab Singh (d. 1854)

After the independence of India in 1947, the Rajas of Chhatarpur acceded to India, and Chhatarpur, together with the rest of Bundelkhand, became part of the Indian state of [[Vindhya Pradesh]]. Vindhya Pradesh was later merged into the state of [[Madhya Pradesh]] in 1956.

'''Vidyadhara''' ([[Hindi]]: विद्याधर:)(reign 1003-1035 c.) popularly known as '''Vidyadhar-Varman''' or '''Chandra Vida''', was a emperor from [[Chandela|Chandel dynasty]] of Central India who is born in [[Heheya Kingdom|Vrishni]] clan{{sfn|Dikshit|1976|p=3}} who ruled from region [[Jejakabhukti]] , with his capital at Kalinjar in present-day Uttar Pradesh. In early period he streched Chandela kingdom from Chambal river in the northwest and Narmada River in south. In 1018 CE, he defeated Kannauj ruler [[Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty|Rajapala]].{{sfn|Mitra|1977|pp=72-73}} He celebrated his success over Sultan [[Mahmud of Ghazna]], [[Bhoja]] of [[Malwa]], and other rulers by building [[Kandariya Mahadeva Temple|Kandhariya Mahadev temple]].{{Sfn|Ring|Salkin|Boda|1994|p=468}}{{sfn|Mitra|1977|p=82}}<ref>{{Cite book |last=Balakrishna |first=Sandeep |url=https://books.google.co.incom/books?id=lzALEAAAQBAJ&pg=PT69&dq=the+proud+kshatriya+king+vidyadhara&hlpg=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjXkeOC7r_5AhU7R2wGHaaUAikQ6AF6BAgGEAM#v=onepage&q=the%20proud%20kshatriya%20king%20vidyadhara&f=falsePT69 |title=Invaders and Infidels (Book 1): From Sindh to Delhi: The 500-Year Journey of Islamic Invasions |date=2020-11-28 |publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing |isbn=978-93-90077-22-9 |language=en}}</ref>

== Ascension ==

Until the 1970s, scholars such as R. K. Dikshit assigned the beginning of Vidyadhara's reign to 1018 CE.{{sfn|Dikshit|1976|pp=71-72}} However, later, a copper-plate issued by Vidyadhara's queen Satyabhama was discovered at [[Kundeshwar]]. This inscription is dated 1004 CE, which proves that Vidyadhara was already ruling in 1004 CE. Based on this, scholar S. K. Sullerey dates Vidyadhara's reign as 1003-1035 CE.{{sfn|Sullerey|2004|p=25}}<ref>{{cite book |title=Indian Archaeology: A Review |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=jW1DAAAAYAAJ |year=1975 |publisher=Archaeological Survey of India |page=55 }}</ref>

== Invasion of Kannauj ==

In 1018 CE, the [[Ghaznavid]] king [[Mahmud of Ghazni]] invaded [[Kannauj]], whose [[Gurjara-Pratihara|Pratihara]] king (possibly Rajyapala) fled the city, allowing the Ghaznvids to sack it without facing much resistance. According to the 12th century Muslim historian [[Ali ibn al-Athir]], Bida, the king of [[Khajuraho]] killed the king of Kannauj as a punishment for this cowardice. Bida is believed to be a variant of "Vidya" (that is, Vidyadhara). Some later Muslim historians misread this name as "Nanda", based on which [[British India|British-era]] scholars identified the killer of the Kannauj king as Vidyadhara's predecessor Ganda. However, an inscription discovered at Mahoba confirms that it was Vidyadhara who defeated the ruler of Kannauj.{{sfn|Mitra|1977|pp=72-73}}{{sfn|Dikshit|1976|p=72}} The Dubkund inscription of Arjuna of [[Kachchhapaghata dynasty|Kachchhapaghata]] family claims that Arjuna killed Rajyapala in a great battle. The Kachchhapaghatas were feudatories of the Chandelas, so it appears that Arjuna was acting as an agent of Vidyadhara.{{sfn|Mitra|1977|pp=74-75}}

==Against Mahmud of Ghazna==
After an unsuccessful invasion of Kalinjar in 1019 CE, [[Mahmud of Ghazni]] again invaded the [[Chandela|Chandela kingdom]] in 1022 CE and the war was fought outside of [[Kalinjar Fort|Kalinjar fort]]. After a long battle Mahmud surrendered and made a peace with Kalinjar. Later, [[Vidyadhara (Chandela ruler)|Vidyadhara]] celebrated his success over Mahmud of Ghazni, [[Bhoja]] and other rulers by building [[Kandariya Mahadeva Temple|Kandhariya Mahadev temple]].{{Sfn|Ring|Salkin|Boda|1994|p=468}}{{sfn|Mitra|1977|p=82}}<ref>{{Cite book |last=Balakrishna |first=Sandeep |url=https://books.google.co.incom/books?id=lzALEAAAQBAJ&pg=PT69&dq=the+proud+kshatriya+king+vidyadhara&hlpg=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjXkeOC7r_5AhU7R2wGHaaUAikQ6AF6BAgGEAM#v=onepage&q=the%20proud%20kshatriya%20king%20vidyadhara&f=falsePT69 |title=Invaders and Infidels (Book 1): From Sindh to Delhi: The 500-Year Journey of Islamic Invasions |date=2020-11-28 |publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing |isbn=978-93-90077-22-9 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Gopal |first=Dr Krishna |url=https://books.google.co.incom/books?id=GAfgAAAAMAAJ&q=Vidyadhar+Chandel&dq=Vidyadhar+Chandel&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjP5PHy-9f9AhU4xTgGHc-wAeY4HhDoAXoECAoQAw#Vidyadhar |title=Fairs and Festivals of India |date=2003 |publisher=Gyan Publishing House |isbn=978-81-212-0810-9 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Chakraberty |first=Chandra |url=https://books.google.co.incom/books?id=w-g9AAAAIAAJ&q=Vidyadhara+Chandel&dq=Vidyadhara+Chandel&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwibtfXD_tf9AhUH1jgGHVGSDwg4HhDoAXoECAYQAw#Vidyadhara |title=The Racial History of India |date=1944 |publisher=Vijaya Krishna Brothers |language=en}}</ref>

According to [[Nizamuddin Ahmad]]'s ''Tabaqat-i-Akbari'', the two armies were encamped on the opposite banks of a river. Mahmud sent an envoy to Vidyadhara (called "Nanda" by Ahmad), asking him to accept [[Islam]] and Mahmud's suzerainty. Vidyadhara refused to make a submission. After seeing the Chandela ruler's vast army from an elevated spot, Mahmud became worried. However, at night, Vidyadhara withdrew with some of his companions, leaving behind his army. According to this account, there was no fight between the two armies. After Vidyadhara's withdrawal, Mahmud's army sacked his camp, and procured a great amount of wealth, including 580 elephants. Gardezi, in his ''Zayn al-Akhbar'', states that the Chandela ruler (called "Ganda" in this account) had already deserted his camp by the time Mahmud's envoy reached there. [[Ali ibn al-Athir]] offers a different account, stating that the two armies fought a battle before retreating at the nightfall. {{sfn|Mitra|1977|pp=78-79}}
== Conflict with Bhoja ==
{{Main|Invasion on Malwa & Tripuri}}
An inscription of Gwalior [[Kachchhapaghata dynasty|Kachchhapaghata]] king Kirtiraja, who was vassal of Chandelas, tell us that he defeated the forces of the [[Malwa]] ruler. At that time, Malwa was ruled by the powerful [[Paramara]] king [[Bhoja]]. It is unlikely that Kirtiraja could have defeated him alone. Thus, S. K. Mitra theorizes that Kirtiraja must have received help from his overlord Emperor Vidyadhara in this campaign.<ref>{{Cite book |last=नागोरी |first=एस एल |url=https://books.google.co.incom/books?id=b2wMAQAAMAAJ&q=%E0%A4%AA%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%9A%E0%A5%80%E0%A4%A8+%E0%A4%AD%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%A4+%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%BE+%E0%A4%B5%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%8D+%E0%A4%87%E0%A4%A4%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B8:+Guptottarak%C4%81l%C4%ABna+Bh%C4%81rata&dq=%E0%A4%AA%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%9A%E0%A5%80%E0%A4%A8+%E0%A4%AD%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%A4+%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%BE+%E0%A4%B5%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%8D+%E0%A4%87%E0%A4%A4%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B8:+Guptottarak%C4%81l%C4%ABna+Bh%C4%81rata&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwitr9Hh9tf9AhWmxjgGHR-iB04Q6AF6BAgJEAM#%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A7%E0%A4%B0 |title=प्राचीन भारत का वृहत् इतिहास: Guptottarakālīna Bhārata |date=2007 |publisher=पोइन्टर पब्लिशर्स |isbn=978-81-7132-509-2 |language=hi}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Pāṇḍeya |first=Vimala Candra |url=https://books.google.co.incom/books?id=XULRAAAAMAAJ&q=Vimala+Candra+P%C4%81%E1%B9%87%E1%B8%8Deya&dq=Vimala+Candra+P%C4%81%E1%B9%87%E1%B8%8Deya&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&source=gb_mobile_search&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj059uB-Nf9AhXMxDgGHbRGDkEQ6AF6BAgHEAM#%E0%A4%B5%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A7%E0%A4%B0 |title=Prācīna Bhārata kā itihāsa, 500 ī.-1200 ī. dakshiṇa sahita: vikrama, Jabbalapura tathā anya viśvavidyālayoṃ ke liye |date=1962 |publisher=Kedāra Nātha Rāma |language=hi}}</ref>

== BOOKS and PUBLISHED WORKS ==

===''I. The Bhagavad Gita – A Life-changing Conversation, published by Niyogi Books, 2022.''<ref>{{cite book |title=The Bhagavad Gita:: A Life-changing Conversation |date=16 January 2023 |publisher=Niyogi Books |isbn=978-9391125080 }}</ref>===

As the title suggests, the book decodes life lessons from each section of the Gita, looking at this ancient text through a twenty-first century prism. While stringing together 251 verses of the Gita it deciphers each of them, and presents the takeaways as tools to face situations of modern-day distress, dilemma and inner conflict.

Written from the perspective of a non-ritualistic individual, the book connects the teachings of the Gita with current concepts of life skills. It also reiterates the relevance of a text written thousands of years ago, and showcases its contemporary value by drawing parallels with our day-to-day existence today.

===''II. TEXTBOOKS''===

Singh has contributed extensively in curriculum design and textbook development. She has authored works on Communication & Life Skills for undergraduate courses and several English Language Teaching series for schools.

=== ''III. TRANSLATION – ANTHOLOGIES, NOVEL & NON-FICTION (Hindi to English) ''===
Singh keenly interested in literature as a mirror of human relationships and views literary translation as a means of building bridges between diverse literatures and a medium for facilitating cross-cultural exchanges. Believes that translators have the dual advantage of being able to retain their roots in their own cultural specificity while simultaneously making an invaluable contribution to globalization and dilution of physical boundaries.

'''The Vaishnava Foundation''' ('''VF''') is a [[tax-exempt]] [[nonprofit organization]] which promotes [[Krishna]] [[Consciousness]] as per the [[orthodox]] standards of its spiritual [[acharya]]s. '''VF''' has members worldwide, predominantly in [[North America]], [[Eastern Europe]], & [[South Asia]]. It is part of the [[Brahma]] [[Sampradaya]] of [[Vaishnavism]], which has existed for thousands of years. Specifically, '''VF''' is in the [[Brahma]]-[[Madhava | Madhavacharya]]-[[Gaudiya]]-[[Vaishnava]] [[lineage]] of disciplic succession. The full legal name of the [[corporation]], founded as an association in 1986 and incorporated in 1988, is '''Metamorphosis League for Monastic Studies: The Vaishnava Foundation, Inc.'''<ref>[https://businesssearch.sos.ca.gov/CBS/Detail]</ref><ref>[https://california-company.com/co/metemorphosis-league-for-monastic-studies-the-vaishnava-foundation-inc]</ref><ref>[https://www.celebheightwiki.com/kailasa-candra-dasa-height]</ref><ref>[https://www.therealexplanation.org]</ref><ref>[https://returntosquareone.com]</ref><ref> https://www.therealexplanation.org/vfoutreach/VFO_ao.pdf</ref><ref>https://www.therealexplanation.org/vfoutreach/VFO_te.pdf</ref><ref>J.

Ryan, ''Encyclopedia of Hinduism'' (Encyclopedia of World Religions series); Facts on File: NY, 2007; pp.287-288</ref><ref> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kailasa_Candra_Dasa</ref>

==History==
'''VF''' is a branch of the spiritual movement founded and incorporated by His Divine Grace [[A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada]] in [[New York (state)]] in 1966 under the name of The [[International Society for Krishna Consciousness]], Inc.(ISKCON, Inc.).<ref>Lynne Gibson, “Modern World Religions: Hinduism - Pupil Book Core”, Heinemann Educational Publishers, Oxford: 2002; pp: 4-6; ISBN: 0-435-33619-3</ref> '''VF''' is not, however, is not, however, associated in any way with the organization currently using that ISKCON moniker. '''VF''' was, in fact, founded by disciples of Srila Prabhupada who became alarmed at perceived deviations proliferating within the false-structure of the ISKCON entity, which emerged after the disappearance of Srila Prabhupada. In the latter half of 1986, [[Kailasa Candra dasa]] accepted Eric Johanson’s invitation to join the Mount Kailasa [[ashram]] in [[Lake County]], [[California]]. The two co-founded '''VF''' near the end of that year. In January, 1988, in [[Sacramento]], the Vaishnava Foundation association was legally incorporated, becoming a not-for-profit corporation. Mount Kailasa ashram was sold in 1988, mostly to settle a bankruptcy case. The proceeds were legally split between Mount Kailasa Foundation, Inc. and The Vaishnava Foundation, Inc.<ref>https://www.thekrishnaites.org/about/</ref>
Eric Johanson acted as secretary for '''VF''' from 1986 to 2012.
Kailsa Candra dasa has been a '''VF''' director since its founding.<ref>[http://krishna1008.blogspot.com/2018/04/re-kailash-chandra-by-eric-johanson.html]</ref><ref>[http://bhaktivedantacccg.org/wp/?page_id=102]</ref><ref>Henry Doktorski, “Eleven Naked Emperors: The Crisis of Charismatic Succession in the Hare Krishna Movement (1977-1987)”, Kindle: 2021; pp. 389-390; ISBN: 9781079561371</ref>

==Philosophy==
The group adheres to the [[philosophy]] of [[Achintya Bheda Abheda]] within [[Krishnaism]]. It aims to distinguish bona-fide versus sentimentally-driven [[bhakti]] [[yoga]] and to articulate authentic versus deviated Gaudiya Vaishnava doctrine and praxis. The foundation has a reputation for [[traditionalism]], stressing adherence to (and highlighting divergences from) the norms established by the Gaudiya [[Guru]]-[[Shastra]]-[[Sadhu]] standard. Given that Metamorphosis League for Monastic Studies: The Vaishnava Foundation, Inc. was founded in 1986, it can be considered an early expression of [[New Monasticism]]. A unique characteristic of the organization, among contemporary Gaudiya societies, is that it does not offer [[diksha]] [[initiation]] at this time. '''VF''' members who were not initiated by Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (while he was still physically manifest) take him as their [[siksha]]-guru. The group’s position is that it does not know the whereabouts of any bona fide spiritual master having the capacity to legitimately act as a diksha guru or a regular guru. Nor does '''VF''' acknowledge any [[Vedic]] validity attributed to the post-mortem ritvik system (ritvik-in-absentia), for allegedly bestowing diksha upon uninitiated devotees.<ref>Constance A.

==Activities==
'''VF''' seeks to make [[Vedic]] and [[Vaishnava]] studies in [[bhakti]] [[yoga]] and [[sadhu]] [[sangha]] accessible for all sincere and serious devotees. This group takes advantage of the [[internet]] in many ways in order to promote the teachings of [[Chaitanya Mahaprabhu]]. For example, '''VF''' maintains multiple websites, is active on [[YouTube]] and [[Facebook]], and holds weekly meetings via [[Skype]].
Its Co-Director and chief Founder, [[Kailasa Candra dasa]], has published hundreds of articles and posts a video missive each month.<ref>https://www.therealexplanation.org/VF_Articles_Videos_2022.pdf</ref> Prior to publishing on the internet, the group published a print magazine, “Transformational Realities”, six times yearly. <ref>”Transformational Realities”, Vol.1 No. 1: Late Summer 1988; Vaishnava Foundation, Inc. | https://therealexplanation.org/VF_Newsletter_1988.pdf </ref> '''VF'''’s resources are freely accessible online. In addition, '''VF''' has published two books thus-far, available in both print and ebook format: Beyond Institutional Gurus, Initiations, and Party Men and Tattva-viveka: Awakened Intelligence in Absolute Truth.<ref>Kailasa Candra dasa, ''Beyond Institutional Gurus, Initiations, and Party Men'', Vaishnava Foundation: 2019; ISBN 9789696849661</ref><ref>Bhaktivinode Thakur, ''Tattva-viveka: Awakened Intelligence in Absolute Truth'', 2nd Edition, Vaishnava Foundation: 2012</ref> '''VF'''’s authoritative teachings are currently primarily in English, with some available in Spanish and Serbian. The foundation’s future plans include publishing more materials in Serbo-Crotian, as part of its Eastern European outreach. Personal testimonies to the efficacy of the [[spiritual direction]] offered by VF can be found online.<ref>https://raj-kotecha.com/about/</ref>
<ref>https://therealexplanation.org/veda-serbia/kontakt.html</ref><ref>https://therealexplanation.org/veda-serbia/bhagavad-gita.html</ref> Criticism of the group can likewise be found online, for reasons ranging from [[authoritarian]] [[management]] to promoting [[conspiracy theories]].<ref>[https://lastingimpression.info/god-given-rejection-of-nonsense/]</ref><ref>[https://www.harekrsna.com/sun/editorials/02-10/editorials5689.htm]</ref>

Gaurav Kishor Sharma, a brilliant student who belonged to a well-to-do family had a dream in his eyes to become a actor. Just like any other typical Indian family, his parents were skeptical about his choice and forced him to stay away from his dream. But Mr. Sharma understood his passion and love for acting. He started his hustles very early in life when at the age of 16 he left home and worked at an iron factory. In 2012, it was the first time, a pampered young boy had to work for 12 hours straight and earn money for food. Now, a TV Anchor. Gaurav always carried an extraordinary passion for hard work. From a time when he begged for used food on a train to this time where he is renowned, highly recognized, and an inspiration to thousands of students.

==Court cases==
{{See also| Indian Institute of Planning and Management#Litigation}}

===Found to be awarding MBA degrees under false pretences===
In September 2014, acting on a public interest litigation, high court censured IIPM and Arindam Chaudhuri for misleading students. The court noted that IIPM was promoting an impression that it had recognition from a foreign management institute—International Management Institute (IMI), Belgium. The court found that in fact IMI had been set up by Arindam Chaudhuri and his father Malay Chaudhuri and was not even recognized by the laws of Belgium.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.livemint.com/Politics/bKbeznpnmhgfLJdlbKELJL/High-court-censures-IIPM-Arindam-Chaudhuri-for-misleading-s.html|title=High court censures IIPM, Arindam Chaudhuri for misleading students|date=27 September 2014|website=Livemint.com|access-date=19 October 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.outlookindia.com/article/Evidently-False-And-Misleading/292061 |title=Archived copy |access-date=2017-10-19 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150930185453/http://www.outlookindia.com/article/evidently-false-and-misleading/292061 |archive-date=30 September 2015}}</ref>

It will operate only as a research and training institute in Delhi.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iipm.edu/public/admission_details.html |title=IIPM notice|website=Iipm.edu |access-date=2015-07-02 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/iipm-to-shut-down-all-campuses-october-onwards-115070201044_1.html |title=IIPM to shut down all campuses October onwards |newspaper=Business Standard|date=2015-07-02 |author=M Saraswathy }}</ref>

IPC sections 418, 420, 465, 471 and 506 had been pressed against six people.<ref name="TOI-2013-06-05">{{cite news| url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/lucknow/Management-institute-owner-booked/articleshow/20434614.cms | title=Management institute owner booked |newspaper=[[The Times of India]] | date=5 June 2013| access-date=2013-06-10}}</ref>
