tory, wherefrom they seem to have scattered throughout the tract of land between Abamdabad to Bansda and Chhota Udepur and to the sea coast. No trace of the community is found at their original home land save and except their Giras.
Miyangam and Devan seem to be connected with the Basdias from a very remote period of the modern History and the former place was monopolised by Bhagatias and the latter was done so by the Motas. But at present Devan is captured by the Bhagatias und deserted by the Motas. Almost all the Bhagatias are even at present connected with Miyangam and Devan directly or indirectly. Some of them do openly take pride of their connections while others ignore it. On the other hand the Umargam Motas are very very reluctant to acknowledge their connections with Devan and it is they who throw some insinuation to the Royal Family and Boridra House of Matas. As a matter of fact they cannot escape their connection with Devan.
• The fear maintained by Umargam people is right and justified. Every body should be alert and ready to preserve the purity of blood of bis family at any cost. But nobody has got any right to blur or throw insinuation on others with a view to conceal his own black spots. Therefore we comdemn Umargaon people for sluring others in their zeal of self preservation. It is right that the Bhagatias stand conde. mned for their matrimonial relation in the past with the Barias of Miyangam and Devan and maintaining such relation even at present. But it does not exonerate Umargam people for their wanton attacks on the Motas of Devan. They can not be hanged for the simple reason or fact of their abode at Devan. We do admit that Maharawal Gulabsingh II is styled in Government record as Gulabsingh of Devan. If for his residence at Devan he .cán be hangod, we are certain, then the Umargaon people can not escape
the degradation because their forefather, Goomansingh, Kubersingh Land Gulabšiôgh by adoption and Goomansingh, Mansinġli and
Partapsingh by natural descent, were all resident of Devan. residence indicates matrimonial connection ? Certainly not. Where are the proofs of matrimonial conncetion of Mots Basadias with the Barias of Devan and Miyangam. The canduct of Umargam people, in sluring or throwing insinuation, directly or indirectly, on Maharawal Gulabsingh II, always in season or out of season, on the basis of their imaginary grievances of his Masal (maternal Grandfather's houze ) at Devan, is prooved inglorious and ignominous by the revealition of the identity of his maternal Grandfather in the family of Jadava Ranas of Dahej. We propose to dealwith
