Jagowale Dhadi Jatha

[Guest shastr]

sorry if this is a noob question, but one of my buddies told me that the jagowale jatha in the uk right now is not the orignal jatha that used to be back in the day. the old school jatha got shaheedi from police for singhing pro khalistani vaar's and now this is a new jagowale jatha. is this true? becasue i always thought these guys in the uk were the real deal jagowale. i guess not......????

Well, I don't think there was an "earlier" Jagowala Jatha. However some of the kavishri they sing was sung earlier on by Nirmal Singh Chola Jatha as well as other Jathas.

really ?? anybody else have to say about this??

[Harsimrat Singh]

No question is 'noob' that you've asked Veera, I'll find out for sure, but i think they are different Singhs now, I see them often, sadly they're getting on in the years now! :n:

[Guest shastr]

anybody else know if this true or not?? i have seen video's of the old school jatha, and i always thought the guys in uk were the same singhs.....

[SikhRoots]

Yep, this has been discussed on the forum before. They are not the originals - oh and they are also not dhadhi jatha. They are kavishri's...

[Guest shastr]

so the original singhs got shaheedi right?

[SikhRoots]

Not all of them i dont think...

Heres some posts from other threads on the forum :

the original jagowala jatha was Bhai jagir singh mast and with him was shaheed bhai nirmal singh chola sahib and bhai jarnail singh.they have been to the UK i think they r still here smile.gif

bhai nirmail singh got shaheed after coming back from the shaheedi program in memory of Shaheed General Bhai Sahib Sukhwinder Singh Sangha of the Bhindranwala Tiger Force of Khalistan (BTFK), he had just sang the song in which the singhs took revenge for the Shaheedi of General Sukhwinder Singh Sangha by killing the police officer in charge of killing bhai sahib it was ssp operation harjit su, they put this dog too death in less than 24 days, thats what u call revenge massa rangar style

There was another Jagowale jatha who were in Punjab in late 70's and early 80's. i believe that the singhs became shaheed mid 80's. The original 'Jago aiyah' and 'motorcycle wale yodeh' is sang by the original jatha.

im not sure when the current jatha started i think it was after the 84 attack, not 100% sure but they have carried on the good work of the original singhs.

And it is definetly worth listening to the tapes of the original singhs, im afraid dont have much info on them, can try and dig something out, but their parchar is excellent!

[Guest shastr]

im not questioning there talent or their parchar. i listen to all their stuff myself. i just wasnt sure if these guys where the original jatha.

but thank u for letting me know.

When people refer to "Jagowale" then its the UK jatha, who got their name after they re-sung the kavishri Jago Aiyah.

The original singers of Jago Aiyah were Nirmal Singh Chohla (Shaheed), Sulakhan Singh Kallah and & Jarnail Singh Gill,

Jagir Singh Mast was there ustaad and writer I believe, and may have sung together also.

If you listen to the Jago Aiyah kavishri by UK Jagowale, the original Singh's are mentioned in the line:

"Kehnda Mast Jagir, Sulakhana jago barri piyari, Nirmal dil Jarnaila de naal rakhdi full tyaari"
