बुधाष्टमी

aṣṭamī tithi on a Wednesday is as sacred as a solar eclipse.

अमावस्या तु सोमेन सप्तमी भानुना सह।
चतुर्थी भूमिपुत्रेण सोमपुत्रेण चाष्टमी।
चतस्रस्तिथयस्त्वेताः सूर्यग्रहणसन्निभाः॥

कृत्तिका-व्रतम्

Observed on every occurrence of Kr̥ttikā nakshatra (Sūryāstamayaḥ/puurvaviddha).

kr̥ttikā-vratam for Lord Subrahmanya. Observe fast for the entire day, and obtain blessings of all the kr̥ttikā-striyaḥ who raised skanda after His birth. Three Vratas are very special for Subrahmanya—the bhr̥guvāra-subrahmaṇya-vratam in tulāmāsa, this regular kr̥ttikā vratam, and skandaṣaṣṭhivratam.

Details

सङ्ग्रामसिंहो हतः #४९४

Event occured on 1528-02-09 (gregorian). Julian date was converted to Gregorian in this reckoning.

Shortly after the defeat at khanvA, Sangra, grandson of kumbha, died on 30 January 1528 in Kalpi, evidently poisoned by his own chiefs who held his further plans against Babur to be suicidal.

Details

शिण्डे महज्ज्या रक्तदुर्गग्रहणम् #२५१

Event occured on 1771-02-09 (gregorian).

Mahadji Scindia’s sardar Balarao Govind entered the Red fort & took possession from Zabeta Khan’s men, regaining control of Delhi after Panipat 1761.

After 1719, 1737, 1753-57, 1758-1761, the Marathas returned to Delhi and surrounded the city with their cannons on 8 February 1771. Mahadji Scindia, Ramchandra Ganesh, Visaji Krishna were the chiefs who were in the Maratha army. ‘In the morning the Marathas having planted guns on all 4 sides, began to fire on the fort of Delhi…the ASAD BURJ was demolished. At noon negotiations began with Scindia’s diwan..at sunset the little gate of the fort was opened’.- Delhi Chronicle, 1771.

Aftermath

Marathas obtained sanction from the puppet Mughal Badshah himself to pursue and purge the Rohilla Pashtun cream threatening North India. Marathas then began their rampage against Rohilla Pashtuns, cutting down all who were responsible for Panipat. Marathas led by Maharaja Mahadji Shinde drove out Rohillas & slaughtered them. Najib’s tomb was bombarded & his bones were scattered all around.

Najib’s 10 year old grandson Qadir was discovered at Ghausgarh after his father Zabita fled and he was taken by Mughal Nazir Mansur. Gulām Qadir underwent a very gruesome fate. Ghulam Qadir was placed in Qudsia Bagh by Nazir Mansur & then castrated by Shah Alam II who turned Qadir into a catamite & abused him for years! Thus Najib’s grandson literally became a bedmate of the Maratha puppet Shah Alam II!

Years later Ghulam Qadir invaded Delhi in order to get money to use against Marathas and looted over 25 Crores Rupees. He then avenged himself on his pederast Shah Alam II by conducting atrocities on the Mughal family. Marathas then pursued Qadir & tortured him slowly to death.

मकर-श्रवण-कार्त्तिकोत्सवः
