Bikaner History
|
|
Bikaner's
history dates back to 1488 AD when a Rajput prince Rao Bika
ji a descendent of the founder of Jodhpur (1459 AD)., Rao
Jodha Ji established his kingdom here. Bika Ji chose a
barren land called "Jungladesh" and shaped it into an
impressive city, called Bikaner after the founder's name.
Archeological surveys and excavations have established
beyond doubt that civilization flourished here even before
the Harappa period . Excavated statues, coins and carvings
of stones and clay stands as testimony to this fact.
Ever since the foundation of Bikaner till its accession into
Indian Union in 1947 A.D. and there after it's integration
in Rajasthan state in 30-3-1949 A.D., Bikaner has played a
notable role in the history of the country. Bikaner state
has produced several able Generals and warriors and
distinguished Rulers and just to name of few Raja Rai Singh
Ji-One of Akbar's most distinguished Generals. Another
famous name is Raja Anup Singh who ascended the throne in AD
1669 a scholar and warrior. His period has been described as
"the golden time of Bikaner valor and fame".
In the modern period Bikaner produced the most outstanding
Ruler, namely Maharaja Ganga Singh who ruled for 56 years.
He was a strong and able ruler who renovated the traditional
administration, modernized the army, separated the judiciary
from the executive, constructed the famous "Gang Canal" and
provided a number of welfare schemes, hospitals. His son and
successor Maharaja Sardul Singh, who ascended the throne in
A.D. 1943, played a conspicuous role in the merger of the
princely states in the Indian Union. His Nationalistic
outlook shall ever be remembered by the citizens of Bikaner.
His son Dr. Karni Singh made a mark in Indian politics and
in the field of sports. Ever since 1952 General Elections he
had been elected as member of Parliament continuously for
five terms. He attained international fame in shooting
arena.
