Introduction
Doda is a district in the eastern part of Jammu region of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. Doda District was carved out of the Erstwhile District Udhampur in the year 1948 and lies amidst in the middle and outer Himalayan ranges of Jammu region of J&K State. In view of the vastness of the District and inconvenience being faced by the people living in far flung areas besides making whole area manageable , the State Govt. in July 2006 trifurcated the District thereby creating two new Districts namely Ramban and Kishtwar. On its north is Anantnag and is surrounded by District Kishtwar in north-east, Chamba area of Himachal Pradesh in south. District Kathua and Udhampur in South and South-west and District Ramban in West.
History
This District has a rich history. It is said that one of the ancient Rajas of Kishtwar whose domain extended beyond Doda persuaded one utensil maker Deeda, a migrant from Multan (now in Pakistan), to settle permanently in this territory and set up a utensil factory. Deeda is said to have settled in a village which later on came to be known after him. With the passage of time the name Deeda has changed into Doda, the present name of the town.
The entire area of District Doda including Allaqa Dengbatal (Tehsil Mahore) was initially divided into two independent States of Kishtwar and Bhaderwah. Kishtwar State consisted of some areas of the present District Doda viz: Doda-Siraj excluding present Bhaderwah, Bhalessa and Thathri Tehsils, Marmat Galihan, Raggi, Assar, Batote areas of Doda and Ramban Districts.
The Islamic faith entered the region of Doda as a spiritual and moral force, when Hazrat Shah Farid-Ud-Din came over to Doda via Dengbattal and Ramban, in 1650 A.D. He stayed at Doda for 14 long years and then left for Kishtwar.
The principality of Bhaderwah was distributed into 15 tharas or administrative units. The total area of Bhaderwah Jagir (including Bhalessa etc.) was 533 sq. miles which after amalgamation with Udhampur district in 1931 was reduced to 213 sq. miles only. The earliest mention of the place is traced from Rajatarangni around (1112-28 A.D.), where the place has been named Bhadravakash i.e. good resting place. According to the genealogical role of the Rajas of Billawar, the State of Bhaderwah was found about fifteenth century by a Scion of Balauria family, but later on, came under the control of Chamba. Thus it may be presumed that the State was established any time around 12th century, but the events of the place, right up to the close of 16th century are not very clear.
Nag Pal (IInd) was the son of Maha Pal who, like his father was a great devotee of Basak Nag. He is said to have ruled for one hundred years. Mela Patt is celebrated at Bhaderwah in honour of Nag Pal’s spiritual victory over Emperor Akhbar. Nag Pal (IInd) was succeeded by Bhakhat Pal (1620-35 A.D.) and many others. Bhaderwah became a part of Chamba State during the reign of Charat Singh (1821-44 A.D.). His brother Zorawar Singh was appointed its Administrative Governor. Being a man of fine tastes, Zorawar Singh preferred to stay at Chamba and administration of Bhaderwah was conducted by a succession of Subedars, who could not win over the local inhabitants. Zorawar Singh was designated as Titular Raja of Bhaderwah in 1833 A.D. and was termed as Chhota Raja.
In 1844 A.D. Sri Singh was seated on the Gaddi of Chamba. Due to family dispute, Zorawar Singh fled to Bhaderwah and then to Jammu where he tried to gain the support of Jammu and rebel elements of Bhaderwah, but he could not succeed till his death. Zorawar Singh’s son, Prakaram Singh was made Raja of Bhaderwah in 1845 A.D. But owing to Anglo- Sikh war of 1845, Sikh domination of the Hill States became very weak and Gulab Singh availed this opportunity to annex Bhaderwah with his territory. The same year when Prakaram Singh was its Raja, Bhaderwah passed on to Maharaja Gulab Singh in 1946 A.D. During Gulab Singh’s time, Bhaderwah remained military administered area, administered by a Special
[District Doda at a Glance 2013-14] Page 2
Administrative Officer and it was only in the later year of Ranbir Singh’s rule that Bhaderwah was bestowed as Jagir to Amar Singh. Bhaderwah in Ranbir Singh’s time remained as private Jagir. Ranbir Singh appointed Lhab Joo as Kardar (Tehsildar) of Bhaderwah in 1859 A.D.
Bhaderwah remained a Jagir of Raja Jagir Sir Amar Singh during 1878-81 A.D. On November 10, 1886, as per report of Tehsildar Bhaderwah the Jagir of Bhaderwah was handed over to the representatives of Raja Amar Singh by Tehsildar Bhaderwah and it remained his personal domain with all Powers for its administration, development and revenue collection till his death in 1911 A.D. Thus for almost all practical purposes Amar Singh was ruler of Bhaderwah between 1886 and 1911. When the Jagir Amar Singh passed away in 1911 A.D, Maharaja Pratap Singh issued an order regarding the Jagirand a committee of management was constituted for the estate of Hari Singh for the disposal of civil and criminal matters. Pratap Singh passed away in 1925. He had no issue and therefore Amar Singh’s son Hari Singh occupied the throne of J&K State. The status of the Jagir was changed. Its name as private Jagir was changed to Private Domain and in charge Jagir was changed to Director Private Domains. On the recommendations of Private Domain Assimilation Committee, the status of Bhaderwah ended in 1930 A.D. Consequently Bhaderwah became a Tehsil of Udhampur District in 1931. After establishment of District Headquarter Doda, Bhaderwah was made a Tehsil of this District.
Consequent upon reorganization of District Tehsils, Naibat Thathri and Niabat Bhalessa of Bhaderwah Tehsil also became fully fledged Tehsils in 1981.
Culture
The District is known not only for its rich cultural heritage and ethical values but also for its age-old traditions of secularism and the spirit of tolerance, which have been since times immemorial, binding the people together.
The district is having mixed culture and the people are Pahari Speaking. Because of its connectivity with Jammu, Srinagar, Himachal Pradesh and Ladakh, the people are generally speaking Kashmiri, Ladakhi, Dogri, and some Pahari languages like Bhaderwahi, Kishtwari
[District Doda at a Glance 2013-14] Page 3
and Siraji. The people are also credited to have unity in diversity. For example, besides regional languages, there are about one dozen languages being spoken in different areas. These are Kashmiri, Dogri, Bhaderwahi, Kishtwari, Siraji, Pogli, Khashali, Gojri, Paddri and Panjabi etc.
According to Dr. G.A. Fierson, the word “Pahari” applies to the group of languages spoken in the sub-Himalayan hills extending from Bhaderwah to the eastern parts of Nepal. The Bhaderwah group includes three dialects, viz. Bhaderwahi, Bhalesvi and Padri. Bhaderwahi language is abundantly rich in words, phrases and idioms.
