Episode 13 - Dogrās - Origins, Rulers & Current Fate

Vidura Uvāca

"Dogrās" are one of the most important martial communities which Bhārat has ever produced. They played a key role in the north western areas of the Indian Sub-continent by ruling, influencing and drawing the fate of the sub-continent since the Mahabharata times. In this episode we have with us Shri. Rohit Pathaniaji to shed a light on the origins, its rulers and the rule and to discuss what ails the community in the present era where this community has been betrayed by its own state which failed to secure and protect the interests of them. We discuss the following points with regard to Dogrās: 1. Origins 2. Rulers and their Rule 3. Kingdoms founded by the Dogra Rulers 4. J&K issue vis-a-vis Dogras 5. Ultimate betrayal by the Indian State 6. Way forward. Also, for our fellow listeners I would like to mention about the fact that Shri. Rohitji is one of the most prominent guest on the YouTube channel called "Vaad" run by Shri. Arihant Pawariyaji where he has spoken about the Sikh Faith, Issues of Punjab, its complexities and the society in a very lucid manner where you get the ringside view of the issues of Punjab.
