Talk:Jauhar

message: I put the “invading Muslim army” phrase back in the article. Here is the explanation before anybody attempts any knee-jerk revert.
In *ALL* the instances of Jauhar it was the muslim armies who featured as the invaders. No single instance of Jauhar/Shaka exists which was precipitated by an invading Hindu army. When Hindu armies captured a fort held by another  ruler - whether Hindu or otherwise - they did not molest the women and children in general. For example, during the peak years of Maratha imperialism Maratha armies overran fortresses in Rajasthan several times, but that never resulted in any Jauhar.
Some may see the phrase by communal angle, but it is still necessary to provide right context for the need of such an extreme measure by the defenders of the forts.
even i support this...there is no incident of hindu or rajputs doing jauhar when defeated by hindu kings but this was mainly phenomena seen during the mughal conquest only

message: I have absolutely no knowledge of this subject, but I noticed a few grammatical errors.  I would guess the person who wrote this is not a native English speaker, and even being a native speaker I sometimes have trouble with the rules and such.  I did my best to remove some of the more glaring errors without changing the content.  If I inadvertently changed the meaning of something, I'm sorry.

replies: text: A better question is if you can provide evidence to the contrary, considering "respected" is a somewhat gray area. Anyways people like VK Bhalla have chosen to publish with Anmol, so its reputation stands.Bakaman 03:55, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

message: There has been various vandalism on this page since your edit, please review it and fix it. Additionally, Jauhar was not just limited to Rajasthan, but also in Madhya Pradesh (Central India), Karnataka (South India) and in Kashmir (North India) and Sindh. 23:29, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Please be more specific. Jauhar may have happened elsewhere, but unless you can provide WP:RS, it cannot be summarized in this article. Wikipedia follows peer-reviewed publications, does not lead them. On rest, edit diffs would help. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 01:22, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Vandalism

message: In the practice section, it said that jauhar had been claimed to be unrelated to sati, but then went on to say 'however' and then explain why it was unrelated, so the intent of the first line seems to have been "jauhar has been claimed as being culturally related to Sati". (emphasis mine)
I changed it to read as such, please revert if I am wrong. Readingpro256 talk to me contribs 22:47, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
