Beauty of Songs composed by Master Chandur

Many songs are composed by Master Chandur out of which one song is ” Kabutar-Kabutar khabar khari ach akula ja akabar”. This is the song in which message is send through pigeon to the bellowed. The main beauty of composition is that Master Chandur had used three poems by three poets are used in a single song. This is the rare thing that in a single song poems of three poets are used which is related to one theme. Old sindhi poets were broad minded this is the example of that. Now a days these type of things does not happens in any bollywood songs of any other songs of regional films.

In the song preamble of the theme is in form of poem of Shah Abdul Latif the all time great poet of Sindhi languge. After first preamble part is completed the song starts with poem of Master Chandur in which pigeon is send for the message. Poem of return journey of pigeon with message is composed by Parsaram Zia who was closed friend of Master Chandur.

If you listen the song you can get the idea of three poets as Master Chandur narrates  the names of poets in his song. This shows the greatness of Sindhi people in the field of music and poetry who are from the Indus civilization.

This song is heard by many people and after reading this if you hear the song again you will like it more than before.

Commented on Narendra Modi’s Website

deepakgr2007@rediffmail.com November 1, 2013 Sir, I am proud that you had laid foundation of Statue of Unity of Sardar Patel. Gandhidham town was initially known as Sardargunj, it is my humble suggestion that could we rename Kandla Port as “Sardar Patel International sea port”, as the newly developed town near Kandla Port was initially named after Sardar Patel.

Major Baba Harbajansingh

Harbhajan Singh’s early demise at the young age of just 26 years is the subject of legends and religious veneration which has become popular folklore among Indian Army regulars (jawans), people back at his village and apparently also soldiers of the Red Army across the border guarding the Indo-Chinese border between Sikkim and Tibet. However, the official version of his death is victim of battle at 14500 feet of the Nathula Pass, Sikkim where there were fierce skirmishes between the Indian and Chinese Red Army during the 1965 Sino-Indian war. He was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra medal for his bravery and martyrdom on September 11, 1967.

For details about Baba Harbajansingh visit above link.

Major Baba Harbajansingh even helped Indian army after his death.

This story was first shared by my Executive Engineer in year 2006 when I was in Anjar, he had personally visited his shrine at Indo-Chinese border. The narration was unbelievable that Indian army had considered him as he is on job till his retirement and has continued giving all the benefits , promotion, leave as per the soldier on the duty.

After some time the story appeared in the English news paper.

During last week I again remembered the story and shared it with my staff of GWSSB.

What Major Harbansingh did and helped Nation after his death, we could not do for Nation during our life and on our duties.
