== Plot ==
The film opens with Krishna (Viraat), a charming yet cunning con artist, being escorted by police after a high-profile arrest. Through a series of flashbacks, the narrative reveals Krishna’s life as a street-smart swindler who thrives on trickery and quick money. His escapades include duping a group of girls led by Sanjana (Sanjana Anand) during a trip to Goa, where he poses as a male entertainer, steals their phones, and demands ransom. Initially furious, Sanjana gradually discovers Krishna’s softer side, learning about his troubled childhood and his dream of living a “royal life.”

Krishna’s world turns upside down when he learns that he is the estranged son of Sudarshan (Achyuth Kumar), a wealthy food-products tycoon who has been in a coma following a freak accident. Raised by his mother (Chaya Singh), who once opposed unethical practices in the family business, Krishna inherits not just a fortune but a crumbling empire on the brink of bankruptcy. The revelation forces him to abandon his conman instincts and shoulder the responsibility of saving the company, honoring his mother’s ideals.

As Krishna steps into the corporate world, he faces a formidable adversary in Raghu Mukherjee, a ruthless rival businessman determined to seize control of the food empire. What follows is a gripping battle of wits, where Krishna uses his street-smart skills to outmaneuver boardroom conspiracies, legal traps, and sabotage attempts. Amidst this chaos, his relationship with Sanjana evolves from mistrust to love, adding emotional depth to the high-stakes drama.

The climax blends family sentiment, corporate intrigue, and action, as Krishna fights to protect his mother’s legacy and restore the company’s lost glory. In doing so, he transforms from a carefree trickster into a responsible heir, proving that true royalty lies in character, not wealth.

The title launch was held on 6 February 2023 which was presided by [[Ashwini Puneeth Rajkumar]] and producer [[Vijay Kiragandur]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2023/Feb/07/dinakar-thoogudeepas-next-film-starring-virattitled-royal-2544994.html|title=Dinakar Thoogudeepa's next film starring Virat titled 'Royal'|website=TheNewIndianExpress.com|date=7 February 2023|access-date=22 January 2025|archive-date=8 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230208170246/https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2023/feb/07/dinakar-thoogudeepas-next-film-starring-virattitled-royal-2544994.html|url-status=live}}</ref> In March 2021, it was reported that Dinakar would team up with Jayanna Films and direct a film with [[Puneeth Rajkumar]] in the lead role.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2021/Mar/13/dinakar-puneeth-project-to-be-produced-by-jayanna-films-2275835.html|title=Dinakar-Puneeth project to be produced by Jayanna Films|website=TheNewIndianExpress.com|date=13 March 2021}}</ref> However, with the death of Puneeth, the project was shelved and subsequently called off by the makers. Later, with the same producers, Dinakar teamed up and cast Viraat of ''[[Kiss (2019 film)|Kiss]]'' (2019) fame upon the decision made by the producers. In July 2022, Dinakar tweeted "We are Overwhelmed to present our next vision Production 23 to be directed by me and produced by Jayanna Films’ Jayanna and Bhogendra Sir" confirming that the project would be an youthful commercial entertainer with thriller elements. He roped in ''[[Salaga (film)|Salaga]]'' actor Sanjana Anand to play the female lead. She joined the film sets in August 2022. He further confirmed that the subject he intended to do with Puneeth Rajkumar was not the same as this film's story.
The [[principal photography]] of the film began in February 2023 in various parts of [[Karnataka]] and [[Goa]] states.

==Reception==
The movie received mixed reviews from critics, with opinions split on its commercial masala appeal and reliance on clichés. [[The Hindu]]’s Vivek M. V. wrote, “''Royal'' is a typical Dinakar Thoogudeepa entertainer with Viraat’s charisma carrying the film, but it struggles to rise above formulaic storytelling and predictable tropes.”<ref>{{cite news |last=Vivek |first=M.

A. Sharadhaa of [[The New Indian Express]] offered praise, stating, “Viraat shines in Dinakar’s signature family entertainer, with emotional highs and action sequences making ''Royal'' a crowd-pleasing watch, despite some narrative flaws.”<ref>{{cite news |last=Sharadhaa |first=A. |title=Royal movie review: Viraat shines in Dinakar's signature family entertainer |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2025/Jan/27/royal-movie-review-viraat-shines-in-dinakars-signature-family-entertainer |access-date=8 June 2025 |work=[[The New Indian Express]]}}</ref> Shashiprasad S.

Conversely, [[Deccan Herald]]’s Swaroop Kodur was critical, stating, “''Royal'' struggles with clichés and a lack of fresh ideas, making it a forgettable addition to Dinakar’s filmography despite Viraat’s efforts.”<ref>{{cite news |last=Kodur |first=Swaroop |title=Royal review: Dinakar Thoogudeepa's film struggles with cliches |url=https://www.deccanherald.com/entertainment/royal-review-dinakar-thoogudeepa-s-film-struggles-with-cliches-3372125 |access-date=8 June 2025 |work=[[Deccan Herald]]}}</ref> Y.

'''Sambanand Monappa Pandit''' (25 March 1916 – 30 March 1993) was an Indian painter from Karnataka, popular in the school of [[Realism (arts)|Realism]] in contrast to the contemporaneous net-traditionalist [[Bengal Renaissance]] and other Indian [[modern art]] movements of his time. Most of his subjects oscillated between events from classical [[Indian literature]] including the [[Ramayana]], the [[Mahabharata]], the [[Puranas]], and the contemporary cinema of his times. He infused a rare blend of artistic virtuosity and [[filmi]] glamour to his portrayal of romantic characters like Radha-Krishna, Nala-Damayanti, and Viswamitra-Menaka as also the many heroes and heroines of Hindi cinema. In addition to his critically acclaimed masterpieces he also illustrated many popular film posters, film magazines and various other publications in what can collectively be termed as ''calendar art''. His works remain hugely popular even today.<ref>Deccan Herald, Thursday, 8 January 2009 http://archive.deccanherald.com/Content/Jan82009/state20090107111270.asp</ref> His mythological paintings and calendar art have been collected widely. He is also widely celebrated in the Indian calendar industry for his "realistic" depiction (albeit inspired by contemporary Indian cinema) of themes from [[Hindu mythology]]. In these paintings he emphasised the physical forms of the heroes, heroines, gods and goddesses in marked contrast to traditional and classical styles of [[Indian painting]]. In his paintings, Pandit depicted his subjects as handsome, muscular, valorous men and sensuously beautiful, voluptuous women set in surroundings suggestive of cinema settings and sceneries.

His art gallery is maintained by family members and is open for visitors from 10.30 to 17.30 at his residence in Kalaburagi, Karnataka

==Brief biography==

Born on 25 March 1916, in Gulbarga district of Karnataka state, Pandit became a student of Shankar Rao Alandkar who was also a Sir. J. J. School of Arts product. Subsequently, he took his diploma from the Madras School of Art. He came to Mumbai in 1935 and joined Nootan Kala Mandir for further studies under the guidance of Shri G S Dandavathimath and appeared for his Diploma at Sir. J.J. School of Arts where he was taught by renowned teachers like Shri K.B Chudekar. His headmaster at the Sir J. J. School was the famous artist [[M. V. Dhurandhar]] known for his use of naturalistic techniques to depict scenes from Indian mythology, History and Classical Literature, a style he inherited from [[Raja Ravi Varma]], and passed on to Pandit. Pandit was also greatly influenced by Capt. W. E. Gladstone Solomon, the then Director of Art in Sir J. J. School of Arts Mumbai. Pandit subsequently completed his Diploma with distinction.

==Career in art==

As S. M. Pandit father's financial condition was very poor, his aunt sold her gold bangles which fetched her Rs 50 and gave money to Pandit to move Bombay for his further studies and career. This was a great turning point for him, Pandit soon made his mark in the commercial world of advertising, as also calendar and film art. He began his commercial career in 1938–39, by painting MGM showcards for Bombay's Metro Theater. He and a few other artists set up the Young Artists Commercial Arts Studio in Bombay, designing the publicity for Franz Osten's 1938 Bombay talkies film ''Bhabhi''. They also became the first Indians to create painted show-cards featuring Hollywood greats, [[Greta Garbo]], Norma Shearer, and Joan Crawford for the MGM.

During this period, Pandit also innovated the use of quicker drying Gouache on cloth over oil paints in creating his film posters. Pandit left the Studio to join Ratan Batra's advertising agency, which had as its clientele many of the new indigenous industrial houses like Mafatlal, Kohinoor, Khatau, etc. Pandit also met [[Baburao Patel]], the editor of [[Filmindia]] magazine around this time and began designing and illustrating the cover pages for [[Filmindia]] which continue to be popular even to this day.

By 1944, Pandit set up his own studio called ''Studio S. M. Pandit'' in Bombay's [[Shivaji Park]] where he produced film publicity for Prabhat Studios, [[Raj Kapoor]], [[Sohrab Modi]], among many others. In the studio Pandit collaborated with another young artist from Goa, Raghuvir Mulgaonkar (1922–76) who continued to gratefully acknowledge the immense influence that Pandit had in developing his ''oeuvre''. During this time, Pandit designed the posters and other publicity material for such films as [[Dr. Kotnis Ki Amar Kahani]],<ref>Cinema India: The Art of Bollywood http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/exhibitions/cinema_india.php</ref> 1946; [[Barsaat (1949 film)|Barsaat]],<ref>100 yrs of Indian cinema through scrapbook memories- a visual tribute http://madhusreechatterjee.wordpress.com/2013/12/24/100-yrs-of-indian-cinema-through-scrapbook-memories-a-visual-tribute/</ref> 1949, etc.<ref>Cinema India: The Art of Bollywood – V & A exhibition https://collections.vam.ac.uk/exhibition/cinema-india-the-art-of-bollywood/337/ {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180630053957/http://collections.vam.ac.uk/exhibition/cinema-india-the-art-of-bollywood/337/ |date=30 June 2018 }}</ref> Pandit continued to work for [[Filmindia]] in his characteristic style typified by poster paintings with glamorous appeal, dramatic expression and bold graphic composition which influenced his other body of works including the religious and mythological paintings which continue to be his lasting legacy.

[[File:Krishna and Radha poster painting.JPG|thumb|A poster painting by S M Pandit of Krishna fluting to a doe eyed Radha at the break of dawn.]]

Pandit had started painting mythological subjects in the 1950s on orders from the Bombay Fine Arts Press and Nagpur's Shivraj Fine Arts Press. While the influence of [[Raja Ravi Varma]] and [[M. V. Dhurandhar]] are more than evident in these paintings, it is also true that the 'Filmi' influence in the characterisation of 'made-up' protagonists with highlights shimmering on their hair and lips, muscular Tarzan-like gods and Disney-like detailing of flowers and animals is equally important.<ref>Figures of Locality and Tradition: Commercial Cinema and the Networks of Visual Print Capitalism in Maharashtra – Article by Kajri Jain in the book 'Bollyworld: Popular Indian Cinema Through A Transnational Lens' edited by Raminder Kaur & Ajay J. Sinha – Sage Publications India Pvt Ltd</ref>

In a certain sense, Pandit inherited the "naturalistic" or the " realistic" stye of painting from [[Raja Ravi Varma]]. However Pandit along with Mulgaonkar, took a further step by subjecting the new forms of religious and mythic imagery inaugurated by [[Raja Ravi Varma]], to the technical innovations of his times in tune with the demands of the market, particularly in relation to film and calendar art. Further, the "realism" or "naturalism" of his paintings and posters particularly with reference to mythological and religious subjects should be seen in the context of his realistic departure from the canonical iconography traditionally prescribed for such subjects which was by and large followed in the classical and traditional styles of Indian painting.<ref>The Cambridge Companion to Modern Indian Culture https://books.google.com/books?isbn=0521516250</ref> It is also in the same context, that we can explain a certain amount of stasis and continuity in the imagery of Gods and Goddesses, begun by [[Raja Ravi Varma]] and subsequently insisted upon by the rapidly expanding markets in the calendar and poster art of [[C. Kondaiah Raju|C. Kondiah Raju]], the [[Nathdwara]] artists and further down with Pandit and other contemporary artists of the genre. Many of the Hindu religious images of the [[calendar art]] era have been subsequently adopted and innovated, wholly or in part by the present day Hindutva propaganda.

Among his other masterpieces is the life size portrait of [[Swami Vivekananda]] at [[Kanyakumari]]. Pandit has also painted several other portraits of prominent persons and leaders, including the portrait of [[Mahatma Gandhi]] now at the New Council Hall, Mumbai.

==Rewards and recognition==

Needless to say, recognition and rewards came in ample measure to Pandit. In his own time, he was recognised as the foremost artist in the Genre by many of his contemporaries<ref>'Photos of the Gods': The Printed Image and Political Struggle in India By Christopher Pinney</ref> and continues to influence artists even to the present day.<ref>Atul Dodiya at NGMA – platform-mag http://www.platform-mag.com/art/atul-dodiya.html</ref> He was awarded a medal at the International exhibition in Toronto in 1944 for one of his cover designs. The exhibition of his mythological and portrait paintings in 1978 at the Ravi Shankar Hall and the Indian High Commission in London and Manchester won him popular appreciation and critical acclaim. He was also elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, London (F.R.S.A.)in 1978. During the Festival of India held in London, he painted portraits of Mrs. [[Indira Gandhi]] and Mrs. [[Margaret Thatcher]], which are on permanent display in the Indian High Commission and Commonwealth Institute in London.<ref>Saffronart-''S.M Pandit's Mystical Creation – Saffronart.com'' http://www.saffronart.com/sitepages/ArticleDetails.aspx?Articleid=86&PageNo=1</ref>

His paintings, posters and prints figure in many important collections including the Roman Art Gallery in New York, H. Daniel Smith Poster Archive in the Syracuse University library<ref>H. Daniel Smith Poster Archive in Syracuse University library http://library.syr.edu/digital/guides/s/smith_poster.htm</ref> and many other private and public collections in India and abroad.<ref>Archive, Repertoire or Warehouse? Producers of Indian Popular Images as Stakeholders in a Virtual Database by Kajri Jain</ref>

Pandit was the founder member of the Commercial Artists guild, Mumbai. He was a recipient of the Gold Medal of the Royal Academy in London and was also conferred the State Lalit Kala Academy Award in 1983, and the Rajyotsava Award in 1984. He was conferred the D.Litt. from Gulbarga University, Karnataka in 1986.

== Plot ==
The film centers on Brinda, a successful and career-driven professional who opts to postpone starting a family in order to focus on her professional aspirations. As an established individual in her field, she has cultivated a lifestyle that prioritizes her career over personal commitments. However, after engaging in several introspective therapy sessions, Brinda and her husband Awrko begin to reevaluate their life choices. This leads them to decide on adopting a child, despite Brinda's lingering hesitations regarding motherhood and the uncertainties it may bring to her well-structured life.

Tragically, Brinda's life takes a heartbreaking turn with the untimely death of Awrko, leaving her to navigate the complexities of single parenthood alone and solely responsible for their adopted daughter, Jhimli. The narrative deepens as it explores the intricacies of Brinda's emotional world, revealing her internal struggle between her career, her grief over Awrko's passing, and her efforts to forge a meaningful relationship with Jhimli.

The film's central crisis unfolds when, at the age of twelve, Jhimli mysteriously disappears without any explanation. This crucial event propels Brinda into a desperate search for her daughter, intertwined with themes of maternal instinct, love, and the fear of loss. As the narrative oscillates between past and present, it uncovers the complexities of Brinda and Jhimli's relationship, highlighting the joys and challenges of motherhood against the backdrop of Brinda's personal journey.

Throughout the course of the investigation into Jhimli's disappearance, Brinda encounters hidden truths about her daughter's life that she was previously unaware of. These revelations include significant connections to Jhimli's biological mother, complicating Brinda's understanding of her own role as a parent. This exploration invites viewers to confront profound questions regarding the essence of motherhood, the emotional bonds formed beyond biological ties, and the impact of personal loss on familial relationships.

As Brinda navigates grief, guilt, and the desire to connect with Jhimli, the film ultimately serves as a poignant examination of what it means to be a mother, challenging traditional notions and emphasizing the deep emotional ties that can exist in various forms of family dynamics.

As part of [[E.

==Synopsis==
This film is about the lives of people who live on the edge of what society finds acceptable. It is about coming to terms with oneself and accepting other people as they are. The film is set in the cosmopolitan city of Delhi, where people from all over the country come to fulfill their dreams. For some, these dreams are realized, while others remain in an endless pursuit of other elusive dreams. Perhaps it is the hope of ultimately reaching that destination that keeps one going. And then there are others who surrender to the overwhelming power of the city of dreams and get lost in the maze. This film is the story of a coffee shop girl, Raina, and the man who loves her, Afzar, an aspiring model. Sonal is a fashion patron who becomes his mentor. The film centers around their intense relationship. Love, hurt, and power. Into their lives comes Benoit, a French expat who teaches French in Delhi.

The '''Second Battle of Laghman''' was fought between the [[Ghaznavids|Ghaznavid]] forces under [[Sabuktigin]] and the [[Hindu Shahis|Hindu Shahi]] under [[Jayapala]] near [[Laghman Province|Laghman]] in 991 AD. It took place near [[Laghman Province|Laghman]], present day [[Afghanistan]].

The Ghaznavids defeated the Hindu Shahis and emerged victorious in the battle. This battle laid the foundation for the Ghaznavids to establish their dominance over parts of present-day Afghanistan and [[North India|northern India]].

== Background ==

[[Ghaznavids]] had defeated the Hindu Shahis at the [[First Battle of Laghman|first battle of Laghman]] in 988. The Hindu Shahi King Jayapala, who was forced to sign a treaty after the battle, returned to his capital [[Multan]], and made preparations to avenge his defeat.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Bose |first=Mainak Kumar |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nbItAAAAMAAJ |title=Late Classical India |date=1988 |publisher=A.

Jayapala orchestrated the formation of a confederacy comprising Hindu chiefs from the [[Tomara dynasty]], [[Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty]], [[Chahamanas of Shakambhari|Chahamanas]], and [[Chandelas of Jejakabhukti|Chandelas]].<ref>{{Cite book |last=Dikshit |first=R.

== Battle ==
Jayapala led a contingent of Rajput allies as they advanced from Multan toward Laghman. Sabuktigin, leading his outnumbered army, confronted Jayapala and recognized the significant disparity in their forces. To increase his chances of victory in the battle, he made strategic preparations to engage the Shahis. He divided his troops into squadrons of 500 men each, and directed them to attack the enemy on one particular point. Sabuktigin successfully executed his strategy, leading the Ghaznavids to overcome the Hindu Shahi forces. After having high casualties, Hindus gave up but they were driven with dreadful slaughter beyond the Indus.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Martin |first=Robert Montgomery |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=U7INAAAAQAAJ&pg=RA1-PA60 |title=The British Colonies: Their History, Extent, Condition and Resources |date=1850 |publisher=London Printing and Publishing Company |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Joglekar |first=Jaywant |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=4_SB95ZA-_cC&pg=PA40 |title=Decisive Battles India Lost (326 B.

'''Bhai Mani Singh''' (7 April 1644 – 14 June 1738) was an 18th-century [[Sikh]] scholar and martyr. He was a childhood companion of [[Guru Gobind Singh]]<ref>{{cite book|last=Singh|first=Patwant|title=The Sikhs|year=2007|publisher=Random House Digital|isbn=9780307429339}}</ref> and took the vows of [[Sikhism]] when the Guru inaugurated the Khalsa in March 1699. Soon after that, the Guru sent him to Amritsar to take charge of [[Harmandir Sahib]], which had been without a custodian since 1696. He took control and steered the course of Sikh destiny at a critical stage in Sikh history. He was also a teacher of the ''Gianian Bunga'' (learning Institute), later becoming known as the "Amritsari Taksal", currently located in Sato Ki Gali.

He is remembered by Sikhs as one of their notable martyrs of the 18th century.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Oberoi |first=Harjot Singh |title=The Construction of Religious Boundaries: Culture, Identity, and Diversity in the Sikh Tradition |publisher=University of Chicago Press |date=Dec 15, 1994 |isbn=9780226615929 |pages=330}}</ref> The nature of his [[Martyrdom in Sikhism|death]] in which he was dismembered joint by joint has become a part of the daily Sikh [[Ardas]] (prayer).

==Family ==

=== Ancestry ===

Mani Singh was originally called Mani Ram, and was the son of Mai Das of Alipur. He had two elder brothers: Jet (Bhai Jetha Singh) and Dayal Das.<ref>{{cite book |author=Surjit Singh Gandhi |title=History of Sikh Gurus Retold: 1606-1708 C.E. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vZFBp89UInUC&pg=PA588 |year=2007 |publisher=Atlantic |isbn=978-81-269-0858-5 |page=588 }}</ref>

Mani Singh was one of the 12 sons of Mai Das. His grandfather was Rao Ballu, a reputable warrior, who was a general in [[Guru Hargobind]]'s army. Mani Singh's family consisted of notable warriors, among them his cousin [[Sardar Bhagwant Singh Bangeshwar|Bhagwant Singh Bangeshwar]], who was a ruler in [[Aurangzeb]] time. His brother, [[Bhai Dayala|Dayala]] was killed at [[Delhi]] with [[Guru Tegh Bahadur]]. Mani Singh spent a considerable part of his life in service at [[Harmandir Sahib]] in [[Amritsar]].

===Marriages and children===
At the age of 15, Mani Singh was married to Seeto Bai, daughter of [[Raav Lakhi Rai Jadhaun]] Jadovanshi Raav (King) of [[Khairpur Tamewali]] now in [[Pakistan]].

'''List of Bhai Mani Singh's sons:'''

== Life and work ==

=== Service of Guru Har Rai ===

When Mani Singh was 13 years old, his father, Rao Mai Das, took him to [[Guru Har Rai]] at [[Kiratpur Sahib|Kiratpur]] to pay homage.<ref>{{cite book|last=Chauhan|first=Gurmeet|title=The Gospel of the Sikh Gurus|year=2005|publisher=Hemkunt Press|isbn= 9788170103530|page=xi}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=Osborne|first=Eileen|title=Holy Books B|year=2006|publisher=Folens Limited|isbn=9781843036135|page=32}}</ref> Mani Singh spent about two years at Kiratpur in the service of Guru Har Rai, scrubbing cooking pots and utensils. He also attended to other chores. When Mani Singh was 15 years old, his father applied to Guru Har Rai for leave to be granted to Mani Singh for a short period. Mani Singh and his father returned to their village Alipur where he was married to Bibi Seetobai. Subsequently, Mani Singh, accompanied by his elder brothers, Bhai Jetha Singh and [[Bhai Dayala|Bhai Dial Das]], went to Kiratpur and presented themselves before Guru Har Rai for service at his shrine.

===Service of Guru Har Krishan===

After the passing of Guru Har Rai, Mani Singh started serving [[Guru Har Krishan]].<ref>{{cite book|last=Ralhan|first=O. P.|title=The Great Gurus of the Sikhs: Banda Bahadur, Asht Ratnas etc: Volume 5 of The Great Gurus of the Sikhs, The Great Gurus of the Sikhs|year=1997|publisher=Anmol Publications Pvt Ltd.|isbn=9788174884794|page=64}}</ref> When Guru Har Krishan proceeded to Delhi, Mani Singh was one of the Sikhs who accompanied him.

===Service of Guru Tegh Bahadur===

When Guru Har Krishan died on 30 March 1664 in Delhi, Mani Singh escorted the Guru Har Krishan Ji's mother, Mata Sulakhani, to Bakala and presented himself before [[Guru Teg Bahadur]] for service.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Gandhi|first=Surjit|title=Bhai Mani Singh|journal=The Sikh Review|year=1987|volume=35|issue=397–408|page=12}}</ref> Mani Singh's elder brothers, Bhai Jetha Singh and [[Bhai Dayala|Bhai Dial Das]], also arrived at Bakala for service with the guru. Mani Singh was at that time 20 years of age. After serving some time in the service of Guru Teg Bahahdur, Mani Singh took leave of the Guru and returned to his village in Alipur.

Mani Singh later proceeded to [[Anandpur Sahib]] for the [[Vaisakhi]] festival, accompanied by his family.<ref>{{cite journal|journal=Abstracts of Sikh Studies|year=2002|volume=4|page=24}}</ref> Guru Teg Bahadur had then just arrived at Anandpur Sahib after a preaching tour in the East.

G.|title=Kashmir Shaivism: Under Siege|year=2002|publisher=APH Publishing|isbn= 9788176483605|page=208}}</ref> Guru Teg Bahadur decided to proceed to Delhi. Bhai Jetha and Mani Singh and some other Sikhs remained at Anandpur with Guru Gobind Singh to look after him. [[Bhai Mati Das]], [[Bhai Sati Das]] and [[Bhai Dayala|Bhai Dial Das]] accompanied Guru Teg Bahadur to Delhi.<ref>{{cite book|last=Singha|first=H. S.|title=The Encyclopedia of Sikhism|year=2000|publisher=Hemkunt Press|isbn=9788170103011|page=56}}</ref> They were arrested together with Guru Teg Bahadur and taken to Delhi where all of them were put to death.

=== Service of Guru Gobind Singh ===
[[File:Hukamnama sent by Guru Gobind Singh blessing the family of Bhai Mani Singh, dated to 2 October 1703.jpg|thumb|''[[Hukamnama]]'' sent by Guru Gobind Singh blessing the family of Bhai Mani Singh, dated to 2 October 1703]]
Bhai Mani Singh was a childhood companion of [[Guru Gobind Singh]].<ref>{{cite book|last=Singh|first=Patwant|title=The Sikhs|year=2007|publisher=Random House Digital|isbn=9780307429339}}</ref> He was not of the same age as Guru Gobind Singh (at that time called Gobind Rai) but much older. Mani Singh remained in his company even after Gobind Rai ji had ascended the religious seat as [[Guru]]. Mani Singh accompanied the Guru to the seclusion of [[Paonta]] where Guru Gobind Singh spent some three years exclusively given to literary work.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

Mani Singh was not only a great scholar of Sikh sacred scripture and wrote books on [[Sikhi]] but was also a warrior who accompanied Guru Gobind Singh as one of his body guards on many occasions. The brave deeds of Mani Singh in so many battles earned him the reputation of a great warrior. In his position of being the Guru's [[Dewan#Title|Diwan]] (Minister) he had to attend to many matters in the Guru's establishment. Nevertheless, he had time to study the Sikh scripture under the Guru's guidance and became an accomplished theologian. He acquired so much knowledge and understanding of [[Gurbani]], that he used to do [[Katha (storytelling format)|Katha]] (Exposition) of the Granth Sahib to the [[Sangat (term)|Sangat]] (Congregation) both at [[Anandpur Sahib]] and later at the [[Harmandir Sahib]].

In 1685, when Guru Gobind Singh went to [[Nahan]], on the invitation of [[Mat Prakash|Raja Medni Prakash]], Bhai Mani Singh was one of the Sikhs who accompanied the Guru.

In 1687, when the Guru received a request for help from the widow of Baba Ram Rai, because the Masands were ill treating her, Guru Gobind Singh accompanied by Mani Singh went to Derah Doon, taught the Masands a good lesson and put them in their proper place.

In 1688, at the Barsi (Death anniversary) of Baba Ram Rai, Guru Gobind Singh sent Mani Singh at the head of a Jatha of 50 Sikhs to represent him at the Barsi.

Bhai Mani Singh accompanied Guru Gobind Singh when he went across the banks of the [[Yamuna River]] to [[Paonta]], [[Himachal]]. Bhai Mani Singh fought in the [[Battle of Bhangani]] in 1688 ca. to defend Paonta from the joint attack of all the hill rajas.<ref>{{cite book|last=Naiar|first=Gurabacan|title=The Sikhs in Ferment: Battles of the Sikh Gurus|year=1992|publisher=National Book Organisation|location=Michigan|isbn=9788185135571|page=12}}</ref> Mani Singh showed his prowess with the sword. In this battle his younger brother Hati Chand was killed.

In 1690, in the [[Battle of Nadaun]], Mani Singh showed great bravery and prowess with the sword; so much so that after the victory of the Guru's forces,<ref>{{cite book|last=Gandhi|first=Surjit|title=Sikhs in the Eighteenth Century: Their Struggle for Survival and Supremacy|year=1999|publisher=Singh Bros.|isbn=9788172052171|page=98}}</ref> Guru Gobind Singh bestowed on Mani Singh the title of [[Dewan#Title|Diwan]] (Minister).

====Creation of the Khalsa====
In 1699, on [[Vaisakhi]] day when Guru Gobind Singh established the [[Khalsa Panth]] and Bhai Mani Singh took [[Amrit Sanskar|Amrit]] at the hands of Guru Gobind Singh and from Mani Ram he became Mani Singh.

On this day Bhai Mani Singh's brothers, Rai Singh, Roop Singh and Man Singh were initiated and five of Mani Singh's sons were also initiated as Khalsas.<ref>{{cite book|last=Gandhi|first=Surjit|title=History of Sikh Gurus Retold 1606–1708 C.E. Vol# 2|year=2007|publisher=Atlantic Publishers & Dist|isbn=9788126908585|page=1092}}</ref>

They were:

# [[Bachittar Singh|Bachitar Singh]]
# [[Uday Singh (Sikh warrior)|Udai Singh]]
# Anaik Singh
# Ajab Singh
# Ajaib Singh

In 1699, after the [[Khalsa Panth]] was created with the famous [[Amrit Sanskar|Amrit ceremony]] and [[Rahit Maryada]] (Code of conduct of the Khalsa) was ordained, Guru Gobind Singh sent Bhai Mani Singh and five other Khalsas to Amritsar with instructions to take possession of the Harmandir Sahib. Bhai Mani Singh was appointed Granthi of the Harmandir Sahib and Jathedar of the Akal Takhat.<ref>{{cite book|last=Dilagir|first=Harajindar|title=Akal Takht Sahib (edition 2)|year=1995|publisher=Sikh Educational Trust|isbn= 9780969596417|page=99}}</ref> Mani Singh thus became the third Granthi of the Harmandir Sahib, after [[Baba Buddha]] and [[Bhai Gurdas]]. Apart from [[Kirtan]] Singing of hymns from the Granth Sahib, Bhai Mani Singh used to do Katha (Exposition of Gurbani) which became a very popular daily feature. Rahit Maryada was propagated and arrangements were made for administering Pahul (initiation) to new converts to the Khalsa fold. As a result of Bhai Mani Singh's efforts, a large number of [[Jats]] (farmers) from northern Punjab were initiated as Khalsas, whose numbers increased day by day. Many of them, when they went back to their villages, persuaded others to take the [[pahul]] and become Khalsas. Periodically, Bhai Mani Singh used to go to Anandpur Sahib to pay homage to Guru Gobind Singh and keep him informed of the affairs and happenings at Amritsar.<ref>{{cite book|last=Gandhi|first=Surjit|title=History of Sikh Gurus Retold 1606–1708 C.E. Vol# 2|year=2007|publisher=Atlantic Publishers & Dist|isbn=9788126908585|page=1092}}</ref>

In the first battle fought by Guru Gobind Singh after the creation of the Khalsa Panth in 1699, against Raja Ajmer Chand and his Mughal supporters, Bhai Mani Singh and his sons were in the first line of the Guru's forces. The Guru was so pleased with the bravery and the performance of Mani Singh's sons that after the Khalsa victory, the Guru issued a special Hukumnama (Edict) in praise of them. Mani Singh's sons mentioned in the Hukumnama were : Bachitar Singh, Udai Singh, Anaik Singh, Ajab Singh, and Ajaib Singh.

Bhai Mani Singh took an active role in the battle of Naduan in 1704. When Guru Gobind Singh Ji left Anandpur on the night of 20 December 1704, his family got separated at river Sirsa in the confusion created by the [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]] attack. Bhai Mani Singh took Mata Sundri and Mata Sahib Devan to [[Delhi]] via [[Ambala]].{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

In 1704, Bhai Mani Singh escorted Guru Sahib's wife and Mata Sahib Devan to [[Talwandi Sabo]]<ref>{{cite book|last=Murphy|first=Anne|title=The Materiality of the Past: History and Representation in Sikh Tradition|year=2012|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=9780199916290|page=32}}</ref> where the Guru was staying after defeating the Mughal army at [[Muktsar]].

When Guru Sahib left [[Agra]] with Emperor [[Bahadur Shah I|Bahadur Shah]] for [[Nanded]] in 1707, Mata Sahib Devan and Bhai Mani Singh accompanied him. Afterwards Bhai Mani Singh escorted Mata Sahib Devan back to Delhi where she lived with Mata Sundri for the rest of her life.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

=== Tat Khalsa ===

Mani Singh served as a lead figure of the [[Tat Khalsa]] along with [[Mata Sundari]] in opposition to [[Banda Singh Bahadur|Banda Singh]] and later the ''Bandai Khalsa''.<ref name="tatt">{{cite book |last=Singh |first=Sudarshan |url=https://archive.org/details/TheEncyclopediaOfSikhism-VolumeIvS-z/page/n343/mode/2up |title=Tatt Ḵẖālsā |date=1997 |publisher=Punjab University, Patiala, 2011 |isbn=9788173803499 |editor1-last=Siṅgh |editor1-first=Harbans |edition=3rd |location=Patiala, Punjab, India |pages=326–327 |language=English}}</ref><ref name="brit">{{cite book |author=Encyclopaedia Britannica, Inc. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BbqbAAAAQBAJ&pg=PA187 |title=Britannica Guide to India |publisher=Encyclopaedia Britannica, Inc. |year=2009 |isbn=978-1-59339-847-7 |page=187}}</ref> The Tat Khalsa was ruled to be the original Khalsa in 1721 by Mani Singh through a series of ceremonies, but many Bandais opposed this.

==Role in Sikh history==

===A scholar===
[[File:Manuscript of the 'Guru Sakhian', by Bhai Mani Singh, handwritten in the 18th century.jpg|thumb|Manuscript of the 'Guru Sakhian' (stories of the Gurus), by Bhai Mani Singh, handwritten in the 18th century]]
Bhai Mani Singh acted as scribe when Guru Gobind Singh Ji dictated [[Sri Guru Granth Sahib]].<ref>{{cite book|last=Macauliffe|first=Max|title=The Sikh Religion: Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors|year=2013|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=9781108055475|page=223}}</ref>

Bhai Mani Sahib collected the [[Gurbani]] (Literally "Word of the Guru") of Guru Gobind Singh Ji and compiled it in the Guru Granth
Sahib (Sikhs living guru).<ref>{{cite book|last=Johar|first=Surinder|title=Guru Gobind Singh A Multi-faceted Personality|year=1999|publisher=M.D. Publications Pvt. Ltd.|isbn=9788175330931|page=119}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=Singh|first=Nikky-Guninder|title=Sikhism: An Introduction|year=2011|publisher=I.B.Tauris|isbn=9781848853218|page=46}}</ref> The writings included in the Dasam Granth were composed at different times by the Guru himself.

He expanded the first of Bhai Gurdas's Vaars into a life of Guru Nanak which is called ''[[Janamsakhis#Bhai Mani Singh’s Janamsakhi|Gyan Ratnavali]]{{Broken anchor|date=2024-07-18|bot=User:Cewbot/log/20201008/configuration|target_link=Janamsakhis#Bhai Mani Singh’s Janamsakhi|reason= The anchor (Bhai Mani Singh’s Janamsakhi) [[Special:Diff/1222442066|has been deleted]].}}''.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last=Singh |first=Bhupender |title=Baba Nanak Shah Fakir |date=23 December 2022 |publisher=Blue Rose Publishers |isbn=9789357046602 |edition=1st |pages=23 |quote=4. Bhagat/Gyan Ratnavali by Mani Singh: This work was written around the eighteenth century (between AD 1675 and 1708) by Bhai Mani Singh, a devotee of Guru Gobind and is only an exposition of Bhai Gurdas's first canto. It does not pretend to add to the information on Guru Nanak. Historic value of Bhagat Ratnavali is immense because it is based on the first Var of Bhai Gurdas and contains no imaginary events. Also, it records all episodes in chronological order and avoids errors of other janamsakhis. Bhagat Ratnavali is significant, in the sense that in the list of Guru Nanak's companions and disciples, contained in this book there is no mention of Bala Sandhu.}}</ref> Mani Singh wrote another work, the ''Bhagat Ratnawali'' (sometimes called ''Sikhan di Baghat Mala''), an expansion of Bhai Gurdas's eleventh Vaar, which contains a list of famous Sikhs up to the time of Guru Har Gobind.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

In his capacity as a Granthi of [[Harmandir Sahib|Darbar Sahib]] at the Golden Temple, Bhai Mani Singh is also stated to have composed the Ardas (Supplication) in its current format; he also started the tradition of mentioning deeds of various [[Gursikh]]s with the supplication.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

=== Leadership at Harmandir Sahib ===
[[File:Artwork from 'Gosht Janam Sakhi' showing Shaheed Bhai Mani Singh performing Katha whilst the Sikhs are writing it down.jpg|thumb|Artwork from an illustrated page of the 'Gosht Janam Sakhi' showing Shaheed Bhai Mani Singh performing ''[[Katha (storytelling format)|Katha]]'' (Sikh religious discourse lecture) whilst the Sikhs are writing it down]]
Bhai Mani Singh who was under the presence of Guru Gobind Singh in 1690s had taken over the [[Harmandir Sahib]] at [[Amritsar]] in mid-1699 from Minas.<ref>{{cite book|last=Dhanoa|first=Surain|title=Raj Karega Khalsa|year=2005|publisher=Sanbun Publishers|page=146}}</ref> After initiating the people of [[Majha]] to the [[Khalsa Panth]] Bhai Mani Singh came back to [[Anandpur Sahib]]. Bhai Mani Singh actively taught the reading of [[Gurbani]] and its philosophy to the Sikhs.

According to some [[Hukamnama]]s, Bhai Mani Singh was heading the shrine in 1716. He spent the period of worst persecution in post 1716 at the village of Baganwala (Nanaksar Bhaga) in [[Jhang]] district. In 1718, he held discourse on the life story of the sixth Guru to the congregation at Baganwala.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Singh |first1=Gurmukh |title=Gurbilas Patshahi—6 |date=1997 |publisher=Punjabi University |location=Patiala |isbn=81-7380-493-5 |pages=1–3 |edition=First}}</ref> This account became known as ''Gurbilas Patshahi 6'' (the oldest complete written record of the Guru's life).

In 1720, Mata Sunder Kaur learned of the trouble that was brewing between the ''Tat Khalsa'' (A sect of Khalsa who were strict followers of Guru Gobind Singh) and ''Bandai Khalsa'' (a sect of Khalsa who regarded [[Banda Singh Bahadur]] as the Guru) military factions of the Sikhs. She appointed Bhai Mani Singh as the [[Granthi]] of [[Harmandir Sahib]] and sent him to [[Amritsar]] with Mama Kirpal Singh (Chand), the maternal uncle of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. On his arrival at Amritsar in 1721. Bhai Mani Singh restored peace among the Khalsa, by casting lots and the ''Tat Khalsa'' was declared to have won, and put the affairs of Harmandir Sahib in order.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}}

After Bhai Mani Singh's execution the next prominent Sikh leader was [[Nawab Kapur Singh]] (1697–1753).

===Execution===

Around 1737, Bhai Mani Singh asked to Governor of [[Lahore]], Zakaria Khan, for permission to hold the [[Diwali]] festival to celebrate [[Bandi Chhor Divas]] at the [[Harmandir Sahib]]. The permission was granted for a tribute of Rs. 5,000.<ref>{{cite book|last=Johar|first=Surinder|title=Holy Sikh Shrines|year=1998|publisher=M.D. Publications Pvt. Ltd.|isbn=9788175330733|page=27}}</ref> He hoped that he would be able to pay the sum out of the offerings to be made by the Sikhs who were invited to come, and issued initiations to various Sikhs for this purpose. The Governor alongside Diwan Lakhpat Rai<ref>{{cite book|last=Seetal|first=Sohan|title=Rise of the Sikh Power and Maharaja Ranjeet Singh|year=1971|publisher=Dhanpat Rai|location=Michigan|page=183}}</ref> had different intentions and he sent secret orders to his forces to make a surprise attack on the Sikhs during the festival. Bhai Mani Singh learned of this plan and sent messages to tell the Sikhs not to come; those that did left due to the presence of a military force and suspicious movement of the officers.<ref>{{cite book|last=Seetal|first=Sohan|title=Rise of the Sikh Power and Maharaja Ranjeet Singh|year=1971|publisher=Dhanpat Rai|location=Michigan|page=183}}</ref> Thus, no money could be collected or paid to the government; and Bhai Mani Singh was ordered to be executed.

Bhai Mani Singh was taken to Lahore in chains; when he could not pay the dues he had agreed to pay the Mughals (to legally hold the event) he was ordered to convert to Islam. Refusing to give up his beliefs he was condemned to death by [[dismemberment]].<ref>{{cite book|last=Seetal|first=Sohan|title=Rise of the Sikh Power and Maharaja Ranjeet Singh|year=1971|publisher=Dhanpat Rai|location=Michigan|page=184}}</ref> When the executioner started to begin from his wrists, Bhai Mani Singh reminded the executioner of the sentence, reminding the executioner of his punishment and to start from the joints in his hands.<ref>{{cite book|last=Sahota|first=Sohan|title=The Destiny of the Sikhs|year=1971|publisher=Sterling Publishers|location=Michigan|page=14}}</ref>

'''Dehat Bibi''', also '''Dehat Ded''', was a disciple of [[Sheikh Noor-ud-din Wali|Sheikh Noor-Ud-Din (Nund Reshi)]], the patron saint of [[Kashmir]]. She along with her sister [[Behat Bibi]] are sometimes referred as ''Tsat'a Kori'', literally girl disciples or girl students of Nund Reshi. Behat Bibi and Dehat Bibi were daughters of a [[Kashmiri Pandit]] who was a village [[patwari]] by profession and had converted to [[Islam]] under the influence of the Sufi saint.

The exalted state of their spirituality and the depth and breadth of their knowledge is testified by the fact that the two girls became the only known female khalifas of Nund Reshi. They are both buried at a village named Zalsu, a few miles from the village of [[Charari Sharief|Tsaar]] (Chrar Sharif) in the valley of Kashmir. The two sisters were present at a meeting that took place between Sheikh Noor-Ud-Din and the proselytizer [[Saiyed Muhammad Hamadani]]. The presence of two female disciples in such an important meeting confirms that they were regarded highly by the Reshi.

When Hamadani saw the physically weak Reshi, he remarked that he (Nund Reshi) should not keep his horse (his body) in such a weak condition. To that, Reshi replied that to control once "nafas" (physical needs) was very important because otherwise just like a well-fed horse it could become unmanageable. Dehat Bibi is said <ref>Mohammad Ishaq Khan(2011). Sufis Of Kashmir, p. 105. Gulshan Books, Srinagar, Kashmir. {{ISBN|978-81-8339-095-8}}.</ref> to have remarked, "Those who have already reached their destination or goal do not need a ride or a whip." To this, Saiyed Hamadani is supposed to have asked her, who did she think had reached that goal? Dehat Bibi is said to have replied, "Those who have liberated themselves from the clutches of self." When asked if she was a girl or a boy, Dehat Bibi’s answer was simple yet filled with such profound depth that it left everyone speechless; "If I am non-existent ({{Transliteration|fa|neest}} in the [[Persian language|Persian]] language) then I am neither a girl nor a boy; but if I am existent ({{Transliteration|fa|hast}} in Persian), then I am nothing."<ref>Baba Kamal.

'''Deccan College Post-Graduate and Research Institute''', also referred to as '''Deccan College''', is a post-graduate institute of [[Archeology]], [[Linguistics]] and [[Sanskrit]] & [[Lexicography]] in [[Pune]], [[India]].

==History==
===Early years (1821 to 1939)===
Established on 6 October 1821 as Hindoo College, it is one of the oldest institutions of modern learning in India. It was started under [[Mountstuart Elphinstone]] (Lt. Governor of [[Bombay Presidency]]), with funds diverted from the erstwhile Peshwa's Dakshina Fund, later disbursed by Sardar Khanderao Dabhade after the Territories of the [[Peshwa]] were annexed in 1818.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.deccancollegepune.ac.in/ |title=Deccan College website |access-date=25 June 2010 |archive-date=23 May 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170523011314/http://www.deccancollegepune.ac.in/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> It was also known as the Poona Sanskrit College. The first principal was Major [[Thomas Candy]].<ref>{{cite book|last1=Frazer|first1=James Nelson|title=Deccan College: a retrospect, 1851-1901|date=1902|publisher=The Author|location=Poona|page=5}}</ref>

In 1837, English and other modern subjects were added to the curriculum.<ref>R.N. Dandekar, "Ramakrishna Gopal Bhandarkar and the Academic Renaissance in Maharashtra" in ''Annals of the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute'', Vol. 69, No. 1/4 (1988), pp. 283-294.</ref> An English school was added to the college in 1842; on 7 June 1851 the English school was merged with the Hindoo College to form Poona College. In 1857, the principal was Sir [[Edwin Arnold]], followed by W.A. Russell in 1860.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Frazer|first1=James Nelson|title=Deccan College: a retrospect, 1851-1901|date=1902|publisher=The Author|location=Poona|page=6}}</ref>
[[File:NEO-GOTHIC LOOK.jpg|alt=building of the college with a huge gateway|left|thumb|Building of Deccan College at its campus in Yerwada]]
From its original location in [[Vishrambaug Wada]] and later in Wanwadi, the Poona College was shifted to its present large campus near Yerwada. The land was donated by the Bombay government. The foundation stone of the main building was laid on 15 October 1864. A [[Gothic Revival architecture|Victorian neo-Gothic]] building was constructed by Sir [[Henry Bartle Frere]] with a munificent 1,00,000 rupees from [[Sir Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy, 2nd Baronet]], between [[Kirkee]] and [[Yerwada]].

The college started functioning on the new campus on 23 March 1868. At this stage it was renamed as Deccan College in recognition of the enrollment of students from the entire [[Deccan Plateau|Deccan]] region. Until 1881, Deccan College was staffed by four professors, one acting as principal. Another of the four, the professor of Oriental languages, supervised five traditional Sanskrit [[shastri]]s and an expert in Zend [[Pahlevi]] in an extensive program of research and text publication, in addition to his teaching duties.<ref>Ellen E. McDonald, "English Education and Social Reform in Late Nineteenth Century Bombay: A Case Study in the Transmission of a Cultural Ideal" in ''The Journal of Asian Studies'', Vol. 25, No. 3 (May, 1966), pp. 453-470.</ref> Student enrollment rose to a peak of 210 in 1885. William Wordsworth (grandson of the poet [[William Wordsworth]]) and E.A. Wodehouse (brother of [[P.G. Wodehouse]]) were principals of the college during 1862-74 and 1934-39 respectively.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/pune/A-golden-era-of-history-rusts-at-Deccan-college/articleshow/134146.cms | title=A golden era of history rusts at Deccan college | date=17 August 2003 | newspaper=The Times of India | first=Neil | last=Pate | access-date=24 September 2018 }}</ref>

===Recent history (1939 till present)===
Deccan College temporarily shut down its teaching activities in 1934 due to lack of funding. It was reopened by order of the [[Bombay High Court]] on 17 August 1939 as a post-graduate and research institute for promoting higher learning and research in [[Indology]] and [[Social Sciences]]. The re-opened institute originally had four teaching and research departments: Archaeology, Linguistics, History, and Sociology-Anthropology.

A Transfer Deed was passed by the Hon’ble Bombay High Court on 16 August 1939 by which the court enjoined the state government to run the institute in perpetuity. As per the Transfer Deed the Deccan College Poona Trust came into existence in which were vested the properties including the land and buildings. In accordance with the provision in the Transfer Deed, the appointments of the Trustees today are made by the State Government.{{citation needed|date=December 2018}}

It was incorporated by the Poona University (now [[University of Pune]]) in 1948, becoming one of its recognized institutions.

The state government was entrusted with preparing the rules for the administration and management of the Deccan College Post-Graduate and Research Institute, which was to cater to studies in post-graduate and research in heritage-related subjects. Thus the Management Council came into existence. In the next half-century the institute, apart from giving instruction to postgraduate students and producing over 500 PhD dissertations, carried out outstanding research in Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology, Linguistics, Medieval and Maratha History, Sociology-Anthropology and Sanskrit Studies.

In recognition of the excellence achieved by the institute in teaching and research, the H.R.D. Ministry, Government of India, awarded it the status of a Deemed University on 5 March 1990. It started functioning as Deemed University from 1 June 1994. Since then the institute has conducted its own courses for M.A. degree and P.G. diploma in Archaeology, M.A. degree in Linguistics, and M.A. degree in Sanskrit and Lexicography, and has enrolled a large number of students for the PhD degree in these disciplines.{{citation needed|date=December 2018}}

Currently, Deccan College has three teaching and research departments: Archaeology, Linguistics and Sanskrit and Lexicography. On the premises are two museums: the Museum of Maratha History, and the Museum of Archaeology. As of 2016, it is currently involved in the ongoing multi-year excavation of the largest [[Indus Valley civilization]] site of [[Rakhigarhi]] in [[Hisar district]] of [[Haryana]].{{citation needed|date=December 2018}}

==Extra-academic==
Deccan College had the oldest boat club in India, called the Poonah Boat Club. The site has since been discontinued and is completely overrun by the slums behind Shadal Baba Dargah.<ref>Illustration 'India: The Poonah Boat Club: Bringing Down the Boats' in ''The Graphic'' (6 October 1877), p. 332.</ref>

Curry Row started in 1968 when six brothers,<ref name=JacobsinTroub/> all from [[Bangladesh]], bought a former [[Japanese in New York City|Japanese]] restaurant for $1,800; the owner of the property accepted that price instead of the initial $2,000 because the brothers could only pay $1,600. The brothers established the restaurant Shah Bag because of existing demand and because the area South Asians wanted a place where they could eat [[Cuisine of the Indian subcontinent|familiar cuisine]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Feretti|first=Fred|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1981/03/04/garden/a-culinary-little-india-on-east-6th-street.html|title=A Culinary 'Little India' on East 6th Street|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|date=1981-03-04|access-date=2022-07-29}}</ref> One of the brothers, Manir Ahmed, immigrated to the United States in 1954.

Most of the restaurateurs that came to the area were from [[Sylhet Division]].<ref name=JacobsinTroub/> The restaurants, many named after films or people or characters seen in films, were popular with [[hippie]]s in the 1970s who expressed an interest in South Asian culture. Many of the cooks served [[northern Indian cuisine]] even though their native [[Bangladeshi cuisine]] was significantly different.<ref name=LamMysteries/> Olid Ahmed, the nephew of the first restaurateurs in Curry Row, stated that he got assistance from the chef of the Embassy of Pakistan. By the 1980s the restaurants became financially lucrative, and changes in immigration law meant there were more immigrants from Bangladesh.<ref name=JacobsinTroub/> In 1984 there were about 10 South Asian restaurants. In the following decade that number was 27.<ref name=LamMysteries/>

By 1996, ''[[The New York Times]]'' reported that several of the restaurants experienced financial issues as Indian restaurants opened in other parts of the [[New York metropolitan area]]. With increased competition, the newspaper reported that a "price war" resulted in relationships between people being damaged.<ref name=JacobsinTroub/>

In 2008 there were around twelve Indian restaurants in the area.<ref name=Fishbane/>

In 2019 the South Asian-oriented publication ''The Juggernaut'' reported that some of the restaurants remained in operation while others had closed.<ref>{{cite web|last=Rao|first=Meghna|url=https://www.thejuggernaut.com/manhattans-curry-row|title=In Manhattan's Curry Row, Innovate or Die|work=[[The Juggernaut (website)|The Juggernaut]]|date=2019-07-31|accessdate=2022-07-31}} - [https://www.thejuggernaut.com/about Information on the publication]</ref>

The origin and history of ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' can be traced back to the early 20th century in the Indian subcontinent. The work was initiated by Mahmud Hasan Deobandi, a scholar and leader associated with the [[Deobandi movement]]. Mahmud Hasan Deobandi began translating the Quran into Urdu in 1909.<ref>{{Cite thesis |last=Wani |first=Bilal Ahmad |title=Contribution of Darul Ulum Deoband to the Development of Tafsir |url=https://archive.org/download/ContributionOfUlamaDeobandToDevelopmentOfTafsir/Contribution%20of%20ulama%20deoband%20to%20development%20of%20tafsir.pdf |publisher=Shah-i-Hamadan Institute of Islamic Studies, [[University of Kashmir]] |year=2012 |location=Srinagar, India |language=en |degree=MA |page=84}}</ref> During the translation process, Mahmud Hasan Deobandi and some of his colleagues were arrested for their involvement in the [[Silk Letter Movement]], a political movement against British rule in India, and sent to a prison in [[Malta]]. Despite being imprisoned, Mahmud Hasan Deobandi continued his work on the translation of the Quran. He utilized his time in Malta to complete the translation, and by 1918, he had finished the task. During his imprisonment, Mahmud Hasan Deobandi also started writing explanatory notes in the text, providing a form of exegesis alongside the translation. Mahmud Hasan Deobandi died on 18 Rabi al-Awal 1338 (Islamic calendar) before completing the entire exegesis.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}} At the time of his death, he had completed the exegesis of [[An-Nisa]], leaving behind an incomplete work. Shabbir Ahmad Usmani, another scholar and disciple of Mahmud Hasan Deobandi, took up the task of continuing and completing the exegesis. Usmani dedicated himself to the completion of Tafseer-e-Usmani. The combined efforts of Mahmud Hasan Deobandi and Shabbir Ahmad Usmani resulted in the completion of Tafseer-e-Usmani, which eventually became recognized as a significant Urdu translation and interpretation of the Quran.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

== Methodology ==
The main objective of ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' is to provide a clear understanding of the Quranic verses and their underlying messages. It employs various methods to achieve this goal. The methodology of ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'', followed by Mahmud Hasan Deobandi and continued by Shabbir Ahmad Usmani, is rooted in a classical approach to interpreting the Quran. The following aspects highlight the methodology employed in Tafseer-e-Usmani:{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

1. Linguistic Analysis: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' thoroughly analyzes the language used in the Quranic verses. It explores the meanings of words, phrases, and grammatical structures, taking into account the nuances and intricacies of the Arabic language. This linguistic analysis helps in understanding the precise meanings intended by the Quranic text.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

2. Contextual Understanding: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' emphasizes understanding the Quranic verses within their historical and social contexts. It considers the circumstances, events, and customs prevalent during the revelation of specific verses. This contextual understanding provides insights into the intended meanings and implications of the Quranic text.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

3. Tafsir al-Quran bi al-Quran: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' follows the principle of "Tafsir al-Quran bi al-Quran," which means explaining the Quranic verses using other verses from the Quran itself. This approach ensures coherence and consistency in interpretation, as the Quran serves as its own interpreter. Cross-referencing verses helps in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the message.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

4. Authentic Sources: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' relies on authentic and reliable sources of Islamic scholarship. The exegesis draws upon the works of renowned scholars and commentators such as [[Shah Waliullah Dehlawi]] and [[Shah Abdul Qadir]]. By considering the opinions and insights of respected scholars, ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' aims to present a well-grounded interpretation of the Quran.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

5. Resolving Contradictions: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' addresses apparent contradictions within the Quranic verses. It strives to provide reconciliations and explanations that harmonize different interpretations, ensuring a consistent understanding of the Quran's message. This methodology helps in removing doubts and misconceptions.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

6. Jurisprudential Insights: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' incorporates jurisprudential insights related to the Quranic verses. It explores the legal implications, ethical teachings, and guidance relevant to [[Sharia|Islamic law]] (Sharia). By providing jurisprudential explanations, ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' aids readers in understanding the practical application of the Quranic principles.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

7. Coherent Presentation: ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' presents the interpretation of Quranic verses in a coherent and organized manner. It focuses on maintaining a logical flow and clarity in its explanations, ensuring that readers can follow the exegesis without encountering any discontinuity or confusion.{{Sfn|Wani|2012|p=85}}

== Features ==

3. Resolving apparent contradictions: The exegesis in ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' addresses and elaborates on any apparent contradictions in the Quranic verses.

=== Arabic ===
[[Arif Jameel Mubarakpuri]] is translating ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' in installments through [[Al-Daie]]'s column, ''Al-Fikr al-Islami''.<ref name="mirror">{{Cite web|url=https://muslimmirror.com/eng/tribute-to-sheikh-noor-alam-khalil-amini-the-chief-editor-of-arabic-monthly-al-daie/|title=Tribute to Sheikh Noor Alam Khalil Amini, the chief editor of Arabic monthly, Al-Daie|last=Dawood|first=Khursheed Alam|date=11 June 2021 |access-date=6 January 2024|website=[[Muslim Mirror]]|language=en}}</ref>

== Reception ==
Bilal Ahmad Wani, a researcher at the [[University of Kashmir]], stated that ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' contains an ocean of knowledge. It effectively refutes the suspicions raised by [[Ahmadiyya|Mirzais]] and irreligious sects, which was of great importance during that time. The events mentioned in this Tafsir are sourced from authentic references. The most significant feature of this Tafsir is its rejection of [[Isra'iliyat]] not only by omission but also through argumentation. Fazlur Rahman Laskar, a PhD scholar from the [[Gauhati University]], stated that among Urdu tafsir literature, ''Tafseer-e-Usmani'' occupies the highest rank in several fields. This work is incomparable in terms of sense, rhetoric, eloquence, and intellectual depth.<ref>{{Cite thesis |last=Laskar |first=Md Fazlur Rahman |title=Life and works of Allama Shabbir Ahmed Uthmani |publisher=Department of Arabic, Gauhati University |year=1998 |location=India |pages=123 |language=en |degree=PhD |hdl=10603/67545}}</ref>

[[Yusuf Banuri]], while discussing several books of Tafsir and some concise works in the same field, provides a brief overview of the qualities inherent in this particular work. Those who seek to comprehend the profound meaning of the Quranic verses in the Urdu language, articulated with utmost eloquence and within the shortest span of time, are encouraged to delve into this Tafsir.<ref name=":TLOUD">{{Cite book |last1=Kajee |first1=Imraan |url=https://spirituallight.co.za/node/141 |title=The legacy of the Ulama of Deoband |last2=Kajee |first2=Moosa |publisher=Spiritual Light |isbn=979-8861344210 |year=2018 |location=South Africa |pages=30–31 |language=en |access-date=7 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200925151938/http://spirituallight.co.za/node/141 |archive-date=25 September 2020 |url-status=live}}</ref> [[Ashraf Ali Thanwi]], the teacher of Shabbir Ahmad Usmani, expressed his admiration for this book to Usmani during the final days of his life, using the following words: "I have already donated all the books I owned to the library as an endowment. However, I have retained two books that hold a special place in my heart, and one of them is your Tafsir."<ref name=":TLOUD" /> [[Hussain Ahmad Madani]] also expressed his thoughts, stating, "Without a doubt, Usmani has skillfully condensed vast volumes of Tafsir into a concise work, akin to fitting an entire ocean into a water bag."<ref name=":TLOUD" />

==Background==
According to the [[Indian Meteorological Department]] (IMD), a heat wave is qualified when air temperatures of at least 40 °C (104 °F) in the plains or greater than 30 °C (86 °F) in the hilly regions. For the IMD classification of heat waves, temperatures greater than 46 °C (114.8 °F) are considered and classified as severe heat waves.<ref>{{Cite web|title = Heat Wave - National Disaster Management Authority|url = http://ndma.gov.in/en/media-public-awareness/disaster/natural-disaster/heat-wave.html|website = ndma.gov.in|access-date = 4 June 2015}}</ref>

Every year India experiences severe heat waves in summer, but in the year 2015, casualties were abnormally high. Most of the deaths were concentrated in [[Andhra Pradesh]], [[Telangana]], [[Punjab, India|Punjab]], [[Uttar Pradesh]], [[Odisha]] and [[Bihar]]. More than 20,000 people have died of heat-related causes in India since 1990. In the recent past, the most severe period of hot weather occurred in 1995, when 1,677 people died due to a series of heatwaves. 793 people died in 2011 while 1,247 died in 2012 due to heat related causes. In 2013, 1,216 people died due to the heat.<ref name="The Hindu2752015" /> With over 2,500 deaths, the heat wave has proven to be the most deadly since 1979.<ref>{{cite web|title=With over 1,800 dead, this is India's deadliest heat wave since 1979|author=Kunal Sehgal|date=29 May 2015|access-date=1 June 2015|publisher=Quartz India|url=http://qz.com/415201/with-over-1800-dead-this-is-indias-deadliest-heat-wave-since-1979}}</ref> The casualties crossed the mark of previous years rapidly in 2015.<ref name="timesindia1242">{{cite web

==Causes==
The heat wave was caused in large part by sparser pre-[[Wet season|monsoon season]] showers, which brought less moisture than normal to the area, leaving large parts of India arid and dry. The sudden end of pre-monsoon rain showers, an uncommon trend in India, has contributed to the heat waves.<ref name=CNN700/><ref>{{cite web|title=Heatwave claims over 1,100 across country, temperatures soaring|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/heat-wave-claims-over-750-lives-in-ap-telangana-temperatures-will-continue-to-soar-this-week/article1-1351358.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150526093539/http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/heat-wave-claims-over-750-lives-in-ap-telangana-temperatures-will-continue-to-soar-this-week/article1-1351358.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=26 May 2015|website=Hindustan Times|access-date=28 May 2015|ref=hindustantimes}}</ref> Additionally, the monsoon season is later and further south than the normal trend.<ref>{{Cite web|url = http://imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/weeklypress.pdf|title = Press Release: Current status of southwest monsoon 2015 and forecasts|date = 4 June 2015|access-date = 4 June 2015|website = Press Release - Weekly Press|publisher = Government of India, Earth System Science Organization, Ministry of Earth Sciences, India Meteorological Department}}</ref> This weather pattern, coupled with the [[El Niño]] effect, which often increases temperatures in Asia, combined to create the record high temperatures.

== Historical Perspective ==

'''The Maharaja:''' During the British regime, the Maharja used to appoint the functionaries of the state. The Rules of Management of the State of [[Manipur]], enforced on 14 September 1935, empowered the Maharaja to appoint the members of the Durbar, while a British officer acted as the president of the Durbar. After independence, for a brief period, the Manipur State Constituent Act 1947 provided for the formation of a Manipur State Appointment Board to be the "final authority" in all matters of appointments and promotions.

'''The Chief Commissioner:''' Following merger into the Indian Union on 15 October 1949, Manipur became a centrally administered area, and remained so till 31 October 1956. During this period, the Chief Commissioner appointed the functionaries of Manipur, subject to the control of the Central Government.

'''Territorial Council:''' Manipur became a Union Territory under the States’ Re-Organisation Act 1956 and Constitution (Seventh Amendment) Act 1956. Under the Territorial Council Act 1956 Manipur was allowed to constitute the Territorial Council with limited administrative powers over transferred subjects and appointment of officials thereto. The Chief Commissioner, however, continued to function as the Chief appointing authority of the territory. Subsequently, the Territorial Council was abolished, and Manipur was placed under the Chief Commissioner from 11 May 1963 onwards with a Territorial Legislative Assembly and a Council of Ministers to assist him. Manipur attained statehood on 21 January 1972 under the North- East Area (Re-organisation) Act 1971.

'''Manipur Public Service Commission:''' Under Article 315(4) of the Constitution, the [[Union Public Service Commission]] (UPSC) agreed to function as the Public Service Commission of the State of Manipur till 21 October 1972.

On 3 October 1972 the [[Governor of Manipur]] issued the order of constitution of the Manipur Public Service Commission under Article 318 with one Chairman and two Members. Shri B.K. Nehru, Governor of Manipur inaugurated the office of the Manipur Public Service Commission at a glittering function on 23 October 1972 at the Gandhi Memorial Hall, Imphal. Chief Minister, Shri Alimuddin presided over the function.

'''The Pioneering Brains:''' Shri G.B.K. Hooja MA, [[Indian Administrative Service|IAS]] was the inaugural Chairman of the Commission, while Shri Laishram Gopal Singh BA(Hon.), [[Indian Police Service|IPS]] and Shri Sibo Larho BA were the premiere members. Shri Karam Gourakishore Singh was the first Secretary of the Manipur Public Service Commission.

The Commission was housed in the Old Secretariat Building Complex for almost nine years; it was later shifted to the present location in January, 1981. Over the years, Manipur Public Service Commission have grown in stature with a senior [[Indian Administrative Service|IAS]] officer as the Secretary and an adequate number of officers and ancillary staff.

== Functions of the Manipur Public Service Commission ==
