Hi
Who was Vishnu Bhatt Godse?
1. Majha Pravas is a book written by Vishnu Bhatt Godse, a Brahmin from a village in Maharashtra. He and his uncle had set out to attend a yajna being organised in Mathura. Vishnu Bhatt writes that they met some sepoys on the way who told them that they should not proceed on the journey because a massive upheaval was going to break out in three days.
2. The sepoys said that the English were determined to wipe out the religions of the Hindus and the Muslims. They had made a list of eighty-four rules and announced these in a gathering of all big kings and princes in Calcutta. 3. The kings refused to accept these rules and warned the English of dire consequences and massive upheaval if these are implemented. They all returned to their capitals in great anger and a date was fixed for the war of religion and the secret plan had been circulated from the cantonment in Meerut by letters sent to different cantonments.
