| Video Discription | This is a story of a town and it's people who lead world diamond industry. This is a story of its people who gave India leading position in diamond export and trade. This is a story of every 'Palanpuri' for whom motherland is still in their heart irrespective of the place where they living. In 1616, 31 years after Akbar gifted them Palanpur, the Nawabs of Jhalore moved in. Hundreds of people moved with the nawabs: nobles, officials, craftsmen, farmers, traders, and administrators. The Jhalore Nawabs established themselves quickly, and ruled Palanpur for the next 330 years, stepping down after becoming one of the first princely states to voluntarily merge with the Indian Union in 1948. Local historians credit much of Palanpur's good fortunes to an astute group of Jain administrators who oversaw the day-to-day running of the state. When the Jhalore Nawabs moved to Palanpur they were accompanied by a group of Jain families. Originally Kshatriya Rajputs from Rajasthan, these families had come under the influence of Jain munis and become ardent followers of Jainism. The Jains found patronage under the Nawabs and their relationship evolved into one of mutual interest, and respect. In Palanpur, the Jains became key advisors to the Nawabs. [xAZCLiBt0uQ] |
