There is a mind-boggling web of interconnectedness that
relates one journalist-historian-writer-politician-bureaucrat with another
journalist-historian-writer-politician-bureaucrat.
Almost every high-profile person in the Congress-Communist
establishment related to each other whether it is in politics or bureaucracy or
journalism. Recent books by Kuldip Nayar, Tavleen Singh, and Sanjaya Baru also
tells the same. Here is one set of sample:
THE THAPARS:
Remember the brutal Jaliyanwallah Bagh massacre, the
monstrous act of General Dyer? Even the arch-imperialist Winston Churchill
condemned it as a “monstrous event, an event which stood in singular and
sinister isolation”.
General Reginald Dyer and his actions were backed by Punjab
Governor Sir Michael O’Dwyer and the colonial government of India headed by
Lord Chelmsford. Not a surprise.
But, General Dyer and Michael O’Dwyer (who was subsequently
shot by Udham Singh) had admirers in India as well. The prominent name in the
list was none other than Dewan Bahadur Kunj Behari Thapar of Lahore. In fact,
the Golden Temple management (the predecessor of the SGPC) presented Dyer a
Kirpan (sword) and a Siropa (turban) along with Rs. 1.75 Lakhs contributed by
Kunj Bihari Thapar, Umar Hayat Khan, Chaudhary Gajjan Singh and Rai Bahadur Lal
Chand. (Report).
Thapar’s family was newly wealthy, having made their fortune
in trade during the first world war, as commission agents for the colonial
British Indian Army. Kunj Behari Thapar did everything necessary to please his
colonial masters to keep his hold in the British Indian Army. For loyalty
during Jallianwala crisis, Kunj Behari Thapar was awarded the Most Excellent
Order of the British Empire in 1920. (Copy of the Edinburgh Gazette).
Kunj Behari Thapar had 3 sons 1) Daya Ram Thapar, 2) Prem
Nath Thapar and 3) Pran Nath Thapar and 5 daughters.
1) Daya Ram Thapar: Daya Ram Thapar worked in the Military
Medical Services of India with the influence of his father and retired as
Director General of Indian Armed Forces Medical Services. He has a son Romesh
Thapar and two daughters Bimla Thapar and Romila Thapar.
Romesh Thapar: Born in Lahore, Romesh Thapar was
therefore sent to England for his education. Starting as a fashionable
socialist, Thapar developed into a Marxist ideologue over the years, and
remained a member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) until his death.
Romesh Thapar started Seminar, as a monthly journal, and
established a stable revenue model predictably, nearly all the advertising
revenue comes from the government, and a large proportion of the sales are also
to government institutions and libraries. Thapar also shifted base to Delhi
from Mumbai in order to leverage their growing political clout in the socialist
and “socially progressive” Nehru-led dispensation. They were duly allotted
prime property at a low rate by the government.
Thapar and his wife grew especially close to Indira Gandhi
through the 1960s and 1970s. Although he had known her earlier, it was after
Nehru’s death that Thapar became a part of the inner circle of then Prime
Minister Indira Gandhi. This connection brought Thapar significant clout in
society and government, and numerous sinecures were showered on him as
patronage. Thapar served at various times as director of the India
International Centre, of the National Books Development Board, of the ITDC, and
as vice-chairperson of the National Bal Bhavan, Delhi, all of which are
government sinecures conferred on him by successive Congress Party governments.
Romila Thapar: A famous “top” typical JNU
Nehruvian communist ideologue historian, who gets to write our textbooks and pollute them with
pro-Congress Marxist propaganda.
Thapar’s appointment to the Library of Congress’s Kluge Chair in 2003 was
opposed in an online petition bearing more than 2,000 signatures, on the
grounds that she was a “Marxist and anti-Hindu”. The Communist Party of India
(Marxist) supported her appointment by calling her “a liberal with a scientific
outlook”. To Know more about the great historian, you may check this piece:
(Eminent Historian’s continuing fraud)
2) Pran Nath Thapar: General Pran Nath Thapar was the
youngest son of Diwan Bahadur Kunj Behari Thapar of Lahore. In March 1936,
Thapar married Bimla Bashiram Sehgal, sister of Gautam Sahgal, whose wife
Nayantara Sahgal (recently famed for her award wapasi) was a daughter of
Vijayalaxmi Pandit and niece of Jawahar Lal Nehru.
Gen. Pran Nath Thapar was the only Indian
Army Chief to have lost a war (Against China in 1962). However, on his
retirement, Gen. K.S. Thimayya recommended Lt. Gen. S. P. P. Thorat as his
successor, was however overruled and Pran Nath Thapar was selected. It’s
amazing how Pran Nath Thapar’s role in 1962 debacle is left out of history
books. Anyway, he was forced to and resigned in disgrace after the debacle.
General Thapar and Smt. Bimla Thapar had four children, of
whom the youngest is the prominent journalist Karan Thapar.
Karan Thapar: A famous media personality who also writes columns frequently for Hindustan
Times. The Nehru family itself is related, through blood and marriages, to the high-profile Thapar
family. To know more about his journalism, you may refer this piece: (Karan
Thapar‘s advice to Narendra Modi)
THE SINGHS:
Son of Sujan Singh of village Hudali in Khushab, Shahpur
District (Now Pakistan), Sobha Singh was a witness in the assembly bomb
explosion incident on April 8, 1929. He identified Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar
Dutt and subsequently on Sobha Singh’s testimony, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and
Rajguru were sent to gallows.
Sujan Singh & Sobha Singh were accepted as
senior-grade contractors and building contracts of Lutyen’s Delhi were being
given out to them when Hardinge, the Viceroy of India, announced the plan to
move the British Indian Capital City to Delhi. For the South Block, and War
Memorial Arch (now India Gate), the uneducated Sobha Singh was the sole
builder. Sobha Singh bought as much land in Delhi as he could. He bought
several extensive sites at as little as Rs 2 per square yard, freehold. There
were few other takers, and he came to be described as adhi dilli da malik (the
owner of half of Delhi). He was knighted in the 1944 Birthday Honors. The
younger brother of Sir Sobha Singh, Sardar Ujjal Singh later became a
parliamentarian, and also Governor of Tamil Nadu.
Sir Sobha had four sons: Bhagwant Singh, Khushwant Singh
(prominent journalist, and author), Major Gurbakash and Daljit, and a
daughter, Mohinder Kaur.
Khushwant Singh was a vocal Indira Gandhi
supporter and known to be the most open Emergency apologist. Sir Sobha’s
daughter Mohinder Kaur is known for being accommodative with her
daughter-in-law Rukhsana Sultana, wife of son and Army Officer, Shivendar
Singh. Rukhsana was famous for being a close friend and accomplice of Sanjay Gandhi
during the emergency and also later known for being the mother of actress,
Amrita Singh.
Khushwant Singh’s son Rahul Singh can easily be found on
NDTV or some other news channels defending the serious sexual/criminal
offenders, the likes of Tarun Tejpal, Testa Setalwad and R.K. Pachauri.
It is indeed interesting that grand-daughter of Kunj
Behari Thapar (Jaliyanwallah Bagh massacre apologist), Malvika Singh married Tejbir Singh the grandson of Sir
Sobha Singh whose testimony sent Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru to gallows.
Some reunion this.
The circuit of loyal descendants completes and running in
the name of SEMINAR Magazine. Started by Romesh Thapar, Seminar continues to be
published from Delhi, brought out by Thapar’s daughter Malavika Singh and her
husband Tejbir Singh and is a LOYAL platform for the Congress ecosystem.
To know about more, here is the link to one of its issues of
Seminar.
It’s a common ploy among the liberal chatting class to hound
their Hindu interlocutors as intellectual descendants of Godse. The Late
Khushwant Singh, Romesh Thapar, Romila Thapar and now Tejbir and Malvika Singh
along with Karan Thapar used this insinuation effectively. Someone must tell
them – We may or may not be intellectuals, but you are direct descendants of
the British collaborator Dewan Kunj Behari Thapar and Sir Sobha Singh and still
enjoying the lifestyle on money earned by betraying India and as being an
accomplice to the Congress’s brazen corruption.
