Did you know.......

(As compiled from the Face Book page, of James Robinson Cooper).....

"When Hitler invaded Poland & started WW II, the Polish soldiers left 500 women & 200 children in a ship & told the Captain to take them to any country where they could get shelter. If any of them survived, then they could meet all over again. The ship, filled with 500 refugees, police, women & 200 children, reached the harbour port of Iran. There was no permission to shelter anyone, not were they allowed to even land there. They did not get help even in Seychelles & permission was not given in Aden as well. Finally, the ship, wandering in the sea, came to the coast of Jamnagar in Gujarat, where the Maharaja of Jamnagar, "Jam Sahab Digvijay Singh", not only gave shelter to five hundred women, but also gave their children free education in Balachadi, at an Army School. The refugees stayed in Jamnagar for nine years & one of the children of the then refugee children, later became the Prime Minister of Poland. Even today, the descendants of those refugees come to Jamnagar every year & remember their ancestors. In Poland, the names of many roads in the capital, Warsaw, are named after Maharaja Jam Sahib; there are various schemes in his name, in Poland, as well. Every year, Polish newspapers print articles about Maharaja Jam Saheb Digvijay Singh. From ancient times, the text of India - "Vasudhaiva Kutumbhakam" - the whole world is a family & tolerance - has taught the world....& on the other hand, we have novice leaders, who put question marks on India's tolerance, not realising, that India was & will always remain, a great 'Hindu Indian Culture' - rich, brave, tolerant, compassionate, genuine & humanitarian - plus, pro life, pro good values & great respect. Here is an illustrious page from history... that one must know."


Cheers...
