Nehru wrote in his Biography That
โRevolt of 1857 put an end to our familyโs connection with Delhi, family having lost nearly all it possessed, joined the numerous fugitives who were leaving the old imperial city & went to Agra He (Gangadhar) died at age of 34 in 1861โ (pg.2)
The English army, quite unlike the Hindu army, was made of a different material. While Hindus let the defeated enemy go free
English were after each and every Mogul. They were shooting down all Mohammedans for fear of facing another claimant to the Delhi throne.
[8/N]
Panic and fear ran like wildfire among the Moguls.
There was nowhere to flee. The city had been surrounded by the 'firangi' forces and their allies, the Sikhs and the Gurkhas. It was then that the wily Mohammedans came up with the brilliant idea of name-changing.
[9/N]
The Ghiyasuddin Sub Kotwal Who Run Away from Fear of British Army became Ganga Dhar to Save His life , almost like Yusuf Khan who had become Dilip Kumar
In the aftermath, Many Mohammedans fled to nearby cities not yet fully under the control of the English. Agra was such a city
Jawahar's Mogul grandfather Ganga Dhar, with his entire family, left for Agra
Nehru states in his own autobiography [Pg-02] that on their way to Agra,English troops. detained Ganga Dhar's family. Ganga Dhar told them that they were not Mohammedans but Kashmiri Hindus
[11/N]
Nehru Writes further in His biography that
"In a little painting that we have of my grandfather, he wears the Moghal court dress with a curved sword in his hand, and might well be taken for a Moghal nobleman, although his features are distinctly Kashmiri " - Page No -2
[12/N]
I Think Now Entire Picture is Seems to Be Very Clear .. Isn't it ? ๐
Nehrus Grandfather Gangadhar is Neither a Kotwal Nor a Hindu Kashmiri Pandit.
In Fact Ghiyasuddin Ghazi is An Coward Sub Kotwal Who Run Away from Battle Field Leaving His Duty Incomplete to His Mughal Badshah

In a letter titled "Prospects of Christianity," Harvard's Henry Ware Rammohan Roy recommends bribing "outcast" Hindus to convert Hindus with a salary of Rs. 8 per month and offers Henry to send "as many" Hindus as possible to a Christian neighbor.
In 1924, Raja Rammohan Roy discussed strategies on how the Hindus of India could be converted while responding to lists of questions sent by Rev. Henry Ware, a prominent Unitarian Christian preacher.
"Panch Prayag" refers to the five sacred river confluences in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, India. The word "Prayag" means confluence, and these five are considered extremely holy by Hindus. They represent the meeting points of the Alaknanda River with five different rivers at five different places, each carrying deep mythological and spiritual significance. Pilgrims often undertake the Panch Prayag Yatra, a spiritual journey visiting all five confluences.
Uttarakhand has historically been known as "Dev Bhoomi" (the land of the gods) for good reason. Many of Hinduism's most important shrines lie within the state. One of the most sacred of these is when India's largest river Ganga meets its tributaries on its foaming path down to the plains at five different sites called Panch Prayag.
The Ganges is the holiest river in India, and it is believed that it purifies the soul of all its sins. Thus, the confluences of the Ganges with its tributaries are worshipped as the spiritual places of divine salvation, otherwise called "Prayag". It is believed that a dip at the confluence cleanses the heart, mind, and soul of a person and inches him closer to liberation, or mukti
The rivers in these five spots are believed to be River Goddesses. Being a crucial integral part of the Char Dham Yatra for pilgrims, people worship these for pilgrims, people worship these river confluences at these divine banks or ghats and baths to seek blessings.
This map shows the sequential location of the Panch Prayag on the route to Badrinath:
1. Vishnuprayag - Alaknanda meets Dhauliganga
2. Nandaprayag - Alaknanda meets Nandakini
3. Karnaprayag Alaknanda meets Pindar
4. Rudraprayag - Alaknanda meets Mandakini
5. Devprayag - Alaknanda meets Bhagirathi to form the holy Ganga
According to Hindu mythology, Goddess Ganga wanted to descend to Earth and bless humankind, but her power was too much for Earth to handle. Lord Shiva, knowing this, decided to split her energy and distribute it equally across the lands. He took her energy into his matted locks and directed it to flow into Earth in twelve channels. These channels are said to rejoin after Devprayag, the last of the Panch Prayag that birthed the holy Ganga river. As a result, the Devprayag is considered the most important of the Panch Prayag.
The Satopanth, Bhagirathi, Alaknanda, Vishnuganga, Dhauliganga, Nandakini, Pindar, and Mandakini meet at different points along the path and finally form the Ganga at the holy site of Devprayag. It is also deduced that the Panch Prayag located on the road to Badrinath refers to the Swargarohana (ascend to heaven) route followed by the Pandavas to attain salvation after they completed the circumambulation of the earth.
Vishnuprayag is a holy city in the Chamoli district of the Garhwal Himalayas in Uttarakhand. The Vishnu Ganga, or Alaknanda, originates from the eastern slopes of Chaukhamba from the Satopanth Glacier at Mana Pass and the Dhauli Ganga from Niti Pass at the Indo-Tibet border, and the intersection is called Vishnuprayag. Vishnuprayag derives its name from Lord Vishnu, a Hindu god, and the journey of River Ganga begins. However, taking dips in this confluence is prohibited as the rivers flow with full gusto but you can touch the river water from the banks.
Named after Lord Vishnu, it is believed that Sage Narada meditated here to please Vishnu. The Vishnu Temple, located nearby, is an ancient place of worship.
Vishnuprayag holds significant importance in Hindu mythology. As the name of the confluence is derived from the Hindu God - Lord Vishnu, the Preserver, the place holds sacred facts you might like to know:
According to Hindu Mythology, Lord Vishnu has paid an obeisance in Vishnuprayag.
In Vishnuprayag, Narad Muni rigorously meditated on Vishnu's name to seek blessings. Here, the Lord appeared to grant Narad a boon of wisdom. Before heading to Badrinath - Char Dham Yatra, pilgrims pray and seek Lord Vishnu's blessings in Vishnuprayag for a safe journey.
The Vishnu temple in this confluence has a stair that leads to Vishnu Kund (a water pool) at the confluence.
