Revolutionists Attacked Ramgarh Seth
Money was the biggest problem for the rebellions to fight with British forces. The rebellions used to keep their money deposited with Seth Ganediwala who supported the rebellions.
They sent a message to the Seths of Ramgarh (Shekhawati) to provide financial support for the movement against British but they refused it on the pretext of famine in Rajasthan at that time. On receiving this reply from Ramgarh Seths, Lothoo and Dungar Singh decided to gather booty from rich Seths. Lothoo and Karana Meena changed their appearance and entered Ramgarh as impersonators. They went to a haveli of a big Seth and gathered information about the Caravan, which was supposed to carry a huge wealth and stock of grains for British Co in Ajmer. They came back to Bathot. Lothoo and Dungar Singh attacked the Caravan on predestined place when above caravan was camping at Andawali valley of Aravalli hills. Lothoo and Dungar Singh attacked the caravan and looted it. The food grain was distributed amongst the villagers. The British government took this incidence seriously. Dungar Singh, Sanwata Meena and Lothoo were declared as dacoits and awards were also declared on arrest of them with assurance of job.

Famous quotes containing the words attacked and/or seth:
“The popularity of disaster movies ... expresses a collective perception of a world threatened by irresistible and unforeseen forces which nevertheless are thwarted at the last moment. Their thinly veiled symbolic meaning might be translated thus: We are innocent of wrongdoing. We are attacked by unforeseeable forces come to harm us. We are, thus, innocent even of negligence. Though those forces are insuperable, chance will come to our aid and we shall emerge victorious.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“We are supposed to be the children of Seth; but Seth is too much of an effete nonentity to deserve ancestral regard. No, we are the sons of Cain, and with violence can be associated the attacks on sound, stone, wood and metal that produced civilisation.”
—Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)
