Dagger with Zoomorphic Hilt

India

second half 16th century

Portraits of Sultan 'Ali 'Adil Shah of Bijapur (r. 1558–80) show him wearing daggers with zoomorphic hilts which combine Persian and Indian symbols of power. In this superlative, ruby-studded example, a dragon, whose tail wraps around the grip, attacks a lion, which in turn attacks a deer. Before the deer is a parrot-like bird with a snake in its beak, symbolism associated with the deity Garuda. Lower down on the hilt is the head of a yali, a mythical lion-like animal, with floral scrolls issuing from its mouth.

Tanaji's Vow. The fort of Kondhana dominated the landscape. Whosoever occupied it could easily control a large territory. Which meant that every emerging power sought to control this fort. The fort was also quite secure. An aggressor would have to pay heavily for attacking it. The fort also had a special significance for young Shivaji. It was here that, the historian Grant Duff reports, c. 1636, the Mughals had confined his mother Jijabai, when Shivaji was a little more than five years of age. By October 1636, Shahji had pressured the Mughals to retreat. But, Adil Shah whom he served chose to appease the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan by debarring Shahji from residing in his Jagir of Pune. At this Shahji handed over the management of his Jagir of Poona to Jijabai. Jijabai turned out to be a good manager. With the help of Dadaji Konddev she began to transform Pune from the market village that it was to a flourishing city. The territories of Chakan, Supa, Baramati and Indapur; all of them to be ruled from Sinhagad. A new settlement called Shivapur was set up at the foot of Kondhana. Dadaji Konddev is also said to have developed a new variety of mango at Shivapur known as the Shivapur mango. A worried ruler of Bijapur noted in a letter dated 1st August 1644 ce, that Dadaji had taken full control of fort Kondhana on behalf of Shahji Bhonsale. A little while later Dadaji passed away and people began to notice that the key person behind establishing control over the Maval region was neither Shahji nor Dadaji but Shivaji, who was about 15 years of age. From this point onwards, for the next three decades, Shivaji would continue to fight to retain control over Sinhagad while the Mughals tried to resist him.

Picture painted by M V Dhurandhar depicting Tanaji taking a vow to Jijabai and Shivaji to win back the fort of Sinhagad. This vow was done in the presence of his son and uncle, both of whom are seen in picture.

M V Dhurandhar paints the 20th century depiction by M.V. Dhurandhar of Tanaji's vow to Shivaji and Jijabai in the presence of his son and uncle before the campaign for Kondana fort.

The year was 1555. Portuguese colonial power was at its peak in the 1500’s. They destroyed Zamorins of Calicut. Defeated the Sultan of Bijapur. Took away Daman from the Sultan of Gujarat, Established a colony in Mylapore, Captured Bombay and made Goa as their headquarters. And while they were at it, pretty much unchallenged, they even ruined the ancient Kapaleeswarar Temple to build a Church over it.

Their next target, the super profitable port of Mangalore.

Their only bad luck, just 14 kilometers south of Mangalore was the small settlement of Ullal - ruled then by a feisty 30 year old woman - RANI ABBAKKA CHOWTA

Initially, they took her lightly and sent a few boats and soldiers to capture and bring her back to Goa - Those boats never came back.

Shocked and enraged, they sent a huge fleet of ships this time, under the command of much celebrated Admiral Dom Álvaro da Silveira - The admiral soon returned, badly injured and empty handed.

Thereafter, another Portuguese fleet was sent - only a few injured from the crew managed to make it back.

Then the Portuguese went on to capture the Mangalore port and the fort anyways, perhaps planning to tackle Rani Abbakka Chowta from the convenient distance of the Mangalore fort.

After the successful capture of Mangalore, a huge army under João Peixoto, an experienced Portuguese General was sent to Ullal.

The brief was simple: Subjugate Ullal and capture Abbakka Chowta.

The plan was foolproof- there was no way a 30 year old lady with a few men could withstand the might of an army of thousands with advanced weapons.

The Portuguese reached Ullal and found it deserted. Abbakka was nowhere in sight.

They roamed around, relaxed and thanked their stars - Just when they were about to call it a victory - Mrs Chowta attacked with 200 of her chosen men - there was chaos all around and many portuguese lost their lives even without a fight

General João Peixoto was assassinated, 70 Portuguese were captured and the rest just ran away.

So if you’re Abbakka Chowta, who’s just defeated a large army of aggressors, killed a general, captured fighters and defended her city - What will you do?

- Rest and enjoy the moment right?

- Right?

- No!

Rani Abbakka Chowta, rode with her men towards Mangalore that same night, and laid a siege of the Mangalore fort - She not just broke inside the fort successfully - but assassinated Admiral Mascarenhas the Chief of the Portuguese power there and forced the remaining Portuguese to vacate the fort.

She didn’t just stop at this but went on to even capture the Portuguese settlement at Kundapura, a full 100 kms, north of Mangalore - Just to make a point.

The Portuguese finally managed to get back at Abbakka Chowta by convincing her estranged husband, to betray for money. She was arrested and put in the prison where she revolted again and was killed while trying to escape.

Abbakka Chowta was a Jain who fought against the Portuguese for four decades, with an army comprising of both Hindus and Muslims, a full 300 years before the First War of Indian Independence in 1857.

What did we Indians do to her, as a mark of our respect and gratitude? - We just forgot her.

We didn’t name our girls after her. We didn’t even teach her stories to our kids.

Yes we did release a Postal Stamp in her name, named a boat after her and erected 2 statues - yes just 2 statues in the whole of India for someone who should be our national hero.

The Indian Coast Guard ship ICGS Rani Abbakka the 1st of a series of five inshore patrol vessels built at Hindustan Shipyard Ltd is named after Abbakka Mahadevi.

We might have got to read a chapter about her in our text books, had she been a European or an American.

Many talk about her being the last Indian to have the power of the agni-ban. In all this cacophony, our generation has lost a great hero - a great source of inspiration.

Still wondering why you’ve not heard about her yet?

Arrest of Two Naxalites in Bijapur: A Step Towards Ending Violence

Introduction:

The region of Bijapur, situated in the heart of India, has long been plagued by the scourge of Naxalism, a radical Maoist insurgency. In recent developments, the security forces have achieved a significant breakthrough with the arrest of two Naxalites who were involved in a heinous murder. This arrest not only represents a victory for law enforcement but also raises hopes of restoring peace and stability in the area.

The Ongoing Struggle in Bijapur:

Bijapur, in the state of Chhattisgarh, has witnessed a prolonged battle between the government and Naxal insurgents. The Naxalites, often operating in remote and dense forest areas, have been responsible for numerous acts of violence, including attacks on security personnel, abductions, and killings of civilians. The situation has led to instability and the suffering of local communities.

The Recent Arrests:

The arrest of the two Naxalites responsible for the murder marks a significant step forward in the government's efforts to curb the insurgency and restore normalcy in the region. It demonstrates the commitment of security forces and law enforcement agencies to bring perpetrators of violence to justice.

The Impact on the Local Community:

The news of these arrests is not only a ray of hope but also a sigh of relief for the people of Bijapur. For years, they have endured the horrors of violence, often living in fear for their lives. The apprehension of those responsible for heinous crimes sends a message that justice is being served, and that peace and security are attainable goals.

Challenges Ahead:

While the arrests are undoubtedly a positive development, it is essential to acknowledge the challenges that lie ahead. The Naxal insurgency is deeply rooted, and tackling it requires a multifaceted approach that includes addressing socio-economic disparities, improving infrastructure, and enhancing the overall quality of life in affected areas.

Furthermore, there is a need for rehabilitation and reintegration programs for former Naxal cadres to help them return to mainstream society. These efforts, combined with a consistent and fair application of the law, can contribute to lasting peace and stability.

A Call for Unity:

The arrest of the two Naxalites should serve as a reminder that a united front against violence and extremism is essential. It requires cooperation between security forces, the government, and civil society, as well as a commitment to addressing the root causes of insurgency.

Conclusion: The arrest of the two Naxalites responsible for a murder in Bijapur is a beacon of hope for the local community and a testament to the unwavering dedication of law enforcement in their pursuit of justice. It is a small but significant step towards ending the cycle of violence and achieving lasting peace and prosperity in the region. While challenges remain, this development shows that progress is possible and that the path to peace is not unattainable. It is a call to action for all stakeholders to work together towards a brighter and more peaceful future for Bijapur.
