raman

SAMPURAN SINGH RAMAN, JATHEDAR (1895-1970), active in Akali politics and in the Praja Mandal movement, was born in 1895, the son of Hari Singh Man and Bhag Kaur of Maur Dhilvah in present day Bathinda district of the Punjab. The family later shifted to Raman where Hari Singh had inherited his mother`s property. Both these villages fell within the erstwhile princely state of Patiala. Sampuran Singh came early into notice for his interest in Punjabi folk poetry which he started reciting at fairs and religious festivals. His political career commenced after he had received the rites of the Khalsa at Anandpur Sahib in 1941, when he gave up his role as a popular balladeer and became a whole time worker of the Shiromani Akali Dal.
