Dear Sir,
I do not know how you have been able to get my email address.
It is true that Late Shri Lala Lajpat Rai was Aryasamajist as narratted by my late Grand Father Shri Puran Chand of Dharmkot Randhawa, Tehsil Batala, Dist Gurdaspur.
I was told that Late Shri Hansraj had discussed with some one at Quadian ,Tehsil Batala, Dist Gurdaspur for starting of Dayanand Anglo Vedic High School.
I was told that Lala Lajpat Rai had instituted Punjab National Bank Lahore.
I had been given to understand that my Great Grand Father late Shri Jawale Shah was also taken part in fight against British Rule.He stopped following the old system of SANATAN (MOORTI POOJA) in his family.He also differed the Castism being propagated by the Britishers and had given order to his family members to feed each and every person of the village his own house.Which he did and was out casted from the village and were not allowed to draw water from the Well and smoke Hukka.
He being learned person made arrangement of fixing Water Pump in his own House,with help of his grand sons.It is known to all the people of that village.
He was strong supporter of Arya Samaj
All his five Sons and One daughter were married as Arya Rituals.
We never claimed any award or Government assistant in our whole life.
Warm regards,

Lala Lajpat Rai.January 28th 1865-November 17th 1928A GREAT ARYA SAMAJIST OF HIS TIME.Punjab Kesari (Lion of the Punjab).'Country should emulate the ideals of Lala Lajpat Rai'Lala Lajpat Rai was a great freedom fighter, author and politician who is chiefly remembered as a leader in the India's fight for freedom from the British Raj, who sacrificed his life for the sake of the country. Lala Lajpat Rai was one of the foremost leaders who fought against British rule in India. He was popularly known as Punjab Kesari (Lion of the Punjab). Lala Lajpat Rai was one of the three most prominent Hindu Nationalist members of the Indian National Congress. He was part of the Lal-Bal-Pal trio. The other two members of the trio were Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Bipin Chandra Pal.After studying law at the Government College in Lahore, Lajpat Rai practiced at Hissar and Lahore, where he helped to establish the nationalistic Dayananda Anglo-Vedic School and became a follower of Dayananda Sarasvati, the founder of the conservative Hindu society Arya Samaj.Lalaji believed that it was important for the national cause to organize propaganda in foreign countries to explain India's position because the freedom struggle had taken a militant turn. He left for Britain in April 1914 for this purpose. At this time First World War broke out and he was unable to return to India. He went to USA to galvanize support for India. He founded the Indian Home League Society of America and wrote a book called "Young India". The book severely indicted British rule in India and was banned in Britain and India even before it was published. He was able to return to India in 1920 after the end of World War.After his return, Lala Lajpat Rai,led the Punjab protests against the Jalianwala Bagh Massacre and the Non-Cooperation Movement. He was arrested several times.In 1928, British Government decided to send Simon Commission to India to discuss constitutional reforms. The Commission had no Indian member. This greatly angered Indians. In 1929, when the Commission came to India there were protests all over India. Lala Lajpat Rai himself led one such procession against Simon Commission. While the procession was peaceful, British Government brutally lathicharged the procession. Lala Lajpat Rai received severe head injuries and died on November17, 1928.The Government which attacks its own innocent subjects has no claim to be called a civilized government. Bear in mind, such a government does not survive long. I declare that"Every blow aimed at me will be the last nail in the coffin of British rule in India"
