Bapora

Baba Dheeraj and Thakur Jagsi Ram Singhji came to this place together and then founded this Village Bapora.

They have ruled over 1440 villages in their times[3] A battle was fought at Bapora with a locally famous Nawab Mulla Farid Ladai in the 17th century.

Singh describes his village in his autobiography as given below - [4] It might be Bapora's location, on the far side of the town of Bhiwani in Haryana (famed for its prize-winning boxers), on the fringe of the Thar Desert.

It could be the dusty lanes that wind past big old houses, including havelis, some of them now abandoned and sunk a foot or more below the surface.

It could be Totawala Baba, an ash-covered sadhu who has just begun his rigorous summer schedule of tapasya at the big Shiv Mandir near the government school.

It could be the tang of steel in the air, owed not just to the presence of hundreds of retired servicemen here (and generations of soldiers before them) but also to the historical memory of the locally famous Mulla-Nawab Ladai, when stolen taxes (carried, the elders say, on three camels and two horses) led a nearby nawab to wage bloody war against Bapora in the 16th century.
