• Simply modifying copyrighted text is not sufficient to avoid copyright infringement—if the original copyright violation cannot be cleanly removed or the article reverted to a prior version, it is best to write the article from scratch. (See Bharatpedia:Close paraphrasing.)

• It is always a good idea, if rewriting, to identify the point where the copyrighted content was imported to Bharatpedia and to check to make sure that the contributor did not add content imported from other sources. When closing investigations, clerks and administrators may find other copyright problems than the one identified. If this material is in the proposed rewrite and cannot be easily removed, the rewrite may not be usable.

Bathot – Patoda was thikana of Sikar Rao Raja Shiv Singh.

Lothoo Nitharwal came to Bathot

The story of Lothoo’s migration to Bathot is very interesting. One-day son of Thakur of Ringas, popularly called kunwar, was going on horse. He saw Lothoo passing by his horse but not saluting the kunwar. This irked the kunwar who climbed down the horse and started abusing Lothoo and even slapped Lothoo. Lothoo in turn without showing any anger picked the kunwar by hand, slapped him and threw him in air. The kunwar died on the spot. Lothoo told this incidence to his parents. The incidence had sent alarms amongst the Jagirdars. The parents of Lothoo thought it better to move from Ringas somewhere else to avoid any confrontation. Lothoo’s sister was married in village Bathot in a Kalwania family. So Lothoo along with his parents migrated from Ringas to village Bathot and started living with their relatives. The Ringas thakur did not dare to come to Bathot and penalize Lothoo.

Dungar Singh and Jawahar Singh

Dungar Singh and Jawahar Singh agreed to start a movement against the foreign rule. Both the sardars were aware of the influence and power of Lothoo.

The small fortress of Bathot became the center of revolutionaries under the leadership of Dungar Singh. Bathot was always at target of British forces. Lothoo Nitharwal, Karna Meena (Meenas) were other important freedom fighters with .
