MOHRA

MOHRA

MOHRA, a Brahman of Wazirabad in Gujranwala district (now in Pakistan Punjab), was the brother of Prema involved in the Prema conspiracy case. Both brothers had earlier served under the Dogra raja, Gulab Singh. After the arrest of his brother in May 1847, Mohra joined Bhal Maharaj Singh, a Sikh revolutionary leading a resistance movement against the British. He was with him in Jammu and again joined him at Sujoval, near Batala. It was at his suggestion that a plan was made to rescue Maharaja Duleep Singh from British hands.
