Taimur/Timur: a bloodthirsty tyrant who massacred millions of Hindus.
The entertainment section of mainstream media portals is flooded with news revolving around Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor's son Taimur Ali Khan.
You'll find news articles such as: "Check out what shoes Taimur wore today"' These adorable pics of Taimur are sure to brighten up your day" "Proof that Taimur is a Greek God reborn" etc. floating around the internet.
What innocent little Taimur doesn't know, and what mainstream media wont tell you is that self proclaimed 'History Buff' Saif Ali Khan named his son after Taimur Lung, the cruelest Mughal Ruler in History, who butchered MILLIONS of Hindus
In his 35 year rule, Taimur killed 17 million people, approximately 5% of the WORLD's POPULATION during that time period.
Taimur Lung is the godfather of Mughal rulers who ruined the cultural heritage of India. In Arabic, Taimur means iron. Taimur was the greatest enemy of humanity. After winning almost the entire Middle-East in 1398, he turned his evil eye towards India.
Taimur used to wreck cities wherever he stepped. Thousands of innocent people were butchered and their skulls were collected and piled up. This gave him great pleasure. After conquering Asia, Taimur's Army attacked India.
His army started the task of persecuting countless Hindus in Baloch, Punjab, Sindh and Kashmir. In Kashmir, his army attacked Kataar, where all the men were killed and all women and children were imprisoned as war slaves.
Taimur's executioners massacred Hindus in populated towns, plundered their property, converted them to Islam, destroyed temples, built mosques on their remains and proclaimed 'Khutba' in India.
Bhatner Rajputs had signed a peace treaty accepting defeat from Taimur but Taimur violated the terms. He killed 10,000 Rajputs and chopped off their heads.
In his book "Tazuk-i-Taimuri" he describes this massacre and says, "Within a short time, all the people of the fort were killed, ten thoussand men were decapitated in an hour"
"The Kingdoms wealth, grains, and resources were looted by my army. The houses were burnt; the buildings and the fort were burnt to ashes"
All the Hindus of Samati, Panipat and Delhi were killed by Taimur's army. Nearly one lakh Hindus were killed in Loni of Delhi. He declared that all Hindu men should be k!lled and their entire property should be grabbed.
He further declared that anyone who attacked the murderer should also be k!lled and his property should be confiscated. Taimur used to order the killing of Hindu war prisoners only, and he used to show mercy on Muslim prisoners
In the war between Tughlaq and Taimur, Tughlaq was defeated, leaving Delhi. Taimur looted the whole of Delhi within 15 days and set it on fire. In his autobiography, he says that it was his intention to launch a religious war against "Kafir Hindus" justifying his attack on India.
The heroes who beat defeated and drove Taimur out of India were Veer Gurjar Jograj Singh Pawar and Ram Pyari Gurjar.
On hearing of Taimur's invasion and genocide, a panchayat was called under Gurjar Raja of Meerut and a voluntary army was raised to fight these murderous invaders.
Jograj Singh Pawar was chosen Supreme Commander General of this army.
A renowned wrestler, Jograj was well over 6 feet tall (claimed to be more than 7 ft tall in folklore)
His armor & weapons were of such heavy weight & large size that normal people couldn't even lift, he had chopped off multiple soldiers of Taimur’s army with a single swing of his heavy sword.
Rampyari Gurjar was chosen to lead the regiment of the 40,000 strong women army. The Eminent Scholar Poet Chandra Bhat was chosen as the official Bard. He wrote an eye witness account of the war with Taimur.
They all took oath to remember kshatriya dharma as taught by Shri Krishna in Bhagavadgita and to fight till their last breath.The troops under various commands and generals, spread out to Delhi, to Meerut, to Muzzafarnagar, to Saharanpur and Haridwar.
On reaching these places, they fought with the armies of Taimur, and using Guerilla warfare against a much larger, experienced invader army.
The women wing of army poisoned the waters on way right to Hardwar which killed the Taimur’s soldiers who drank it. Three heroic battles took place simultaneously.
THE BATTLE OF DELHI:

At that time Taimur’s forces were looting Delhi, 20,000 warriors of Jograj Singh’s army made a surprise attack on the forces of Taimur in the middle of the night and killed 9,000 of them.
As soon as dawn came, these heroic soldiers escaped and returned to outside the city walls. The battle carried on like this for three days.Taimur was very upset with these attacks, he left Delhi and advanced toward Meerut to destroy these guerilla tactic warriors.
THE BATTLE OF MEERUT:

Taimur with his powerful army of over 100,000 soldiers and large stocks of weaponry, advanced towards Meerut.  Taimur’s army was attacked heavily and not given any space to breathe. The battles continued all through the day, every day.
Wherever the Army of Taimur would stop for the night, Jograj Singh’s army would attack and uproot them.The heroic Devis led by Rampyari handled supplies and would deliver food & war material to the soldiers wherever they were. They would also attack and loot enemy supplies
500 horsemen were used for keeping everyone together and to pass information and instructions to these dispersed heroic forces. Gurjar women made sure that  supplies were not reaching the army of Taimur and they started to go hungry.
Getting increasingly frustrated, Taimur advanced onwards towards Haridwar, which was the home Jograj Singh Pawar, in attempt to crush the head of attacking Indian forces.
THE BATTLE OF HARIDWAR:

Here too Taimur met with resistance from Gurjar forces. His army however eventually reached Jwalapur, 5 kms south of Haridwar. At this spot, three major battles were fought with the army of Taimur to stop him from reaching the holy land of Haridwar.
Harbir Singh Gulia, along with 25,000 warriors, made a fierce attack on a big group of Taimur’s horsemen. Taimur was protected by a large force of his very best warriors and horsemen.
Harbir Singh Gulia broke through these protective forces and hit Timur on his chest with a spear, grieviously wounding him and Taimur almost fell off under his own horse, his army’s commander Khijra, managed to save him.
Harbir Singh was attacked by large number of soldiers he got severely wounded and fell unconcious in battle field.  Upon hearing this Jograj Singh rushed to the scene and rescued unconscious Harbir Singh. A few hours later, the hero Harbir Singh Gulia attained martyrdom.
Soon after this, in the Jungles of Haridwar, the guard of Taimur were attacked by Dhula Dhardi with a small force of 190 soldiers. They managed to kill a large number of the Taimur’s guard but all 190 of these valiant soldiers achieved martyrdom.
In the 3rd battle, Taimur made a final attempt to attack & destroy Haridwar but Jograj Singh and Rampyari bravely defended the revered pilgrimage place..they fiercely attacked the army of Taimur. Their strength shocked & scared the barbarians, they fled the battleground.
In this final & fiercest battle, the hero commander Jograj Singh Pawar said to have suffered 45 wounds but he kept his senses to motivate his forces. They did not allow Taimur’s army to touch the banks of the holy Ganga.
His army decimated, Taimur fled with his remaining soldiers. This fleeing
army of Taimur was chased from Haridwar right upto Ambala to ensure their final exit from these lands. Taimur never returned and there were no invasions on India for another 150 years.
