This one's a long one for sure. Sit back, take your time. Took me a very long time to write, arrange, record and edit it. Like Months. But, I am not the only one who did the work. I actually have never visited Johar, so if you see a shot that made you go "Whoa!", almost certainly it was shot by this guy: www.youtube.com/@deepakbafila08 A massive thanks to Dr. Shekhar Pathak as well. Also, the lady at 24:18 is named Chandra Devi, a migratory resident of Martoli village, didn't know her name until writing this comment.
Thank you Harshit! Your videos continue to educate and inspire me. I really appreciate the time and effort invested in the research of our tribe and other videos in general. Please continue to make these amazing snippets of our Uttarakhand history. All the best 🙏
Thank You Harshit !! As a Bhotiya ( A Rung from Darma ) i felt, you did justice to the whole Uttarakhandi Bhotiya Community by just one video on Shaukas! There were few more misnomers i would like to clarify in context to the Rungs, as the Rung from Darma are Darmaani ( not Darmiya ), Bangbani for Rungs in Chaudas and Byangpa for Rungs in Vyas also, People in Ralam Valley are also Rung. Thank You again !!
In context to other Bhotiyas of Uttarakhand, Tolchhas and Marchhas are collectively known as Rongpa and there is one more Community Khampa, From The Kham province of Tibet , some of them have been residing in uttarakhand during this Trade period, especially in the Khimling village of Darma Valley, today Khimling has been almost abandoned, Groups of Khampas are living in Dharchula, Almora etc.

I'm from bageshwar... And yeah we do celebrate uttarayani every year (probly a day after makar sankranti). I was literally awestruck throughout the video... Keep up the good work mate.
This just mesmerised me completely!!! I have been longing to go to milam for so many years but not been able to do it. I read a lot about Johar valley but this video opened a lot of areas for me to explore in the same valley. As always, Thank you so much Harshit for putting together this amazing video. Keep them coming.
I am from Chamba, Himachal Pradesh and the "Gaddi" tribe of Chamba migrates with their flock from upper Chamba to Kangra, Himachal Pradesh or Lahaul Spiti.
Too good… A drop of tear came in when Dr Shekar Pathak mentioned that the communities are not aware that they have lost a tradition even though many of them have got well settled. I just thought through the same, in the race of newer lives we are in race to move to Urban clusters losing our tradition and culture.
You got to the precise POINT... It's emotional and touching, but very few realize it, I can I have lived the whole of my life in a big and modern city.
एक छोटा सा प्रयास लेकिन बहुत बड़ी विशालता को दिखाया है। आपने रौतेला जी, मैं भी उसी जोहार मुनस्यार घाटी का घुमंतू कुटुम्ब का सदस्य हूं। और वहा के इतिहास को आपने भली भांति तरीके से उकेरा है, और भी कई चीजे वहा के इतिहास में है जिससे अभी खुद भोटिया समाज अनभिज्ञ हैं। इतिहास को किसी ने पूर्णतः संकलित नही किया, और वो चीजें समाज के सामने आ नही पाई।
बहुत बढ़िया जानकारी हर्षित रोतेला। यह जानकारी यदि पाठ्यक्रम में शामिल हो जाये तो हमारी आने पीढ़ी को अपने उत्तराखंड के इतिहास को आगे बढ़ाने में मदद मिल सकती है। आपको यह बताते हुए मुझे बहुत गर्व से कहना पड़ रहा है कि उत्तराखंड की दूसरी पीढ़ी जो यूरोपीय देशों में पैदा हुए हैं वह इस जानकारी को सुनकर काफ़ी प्रभावित होते हैं और उन्हें काफ़ी गर्व महसूस होता है कि उनके वंशज उत्तराखंड की पावन धरती से संबंधित हैं । जानकारी को शेयर करने के बहुत धन्यवाद🙏🏽
Brother... I am highly thankful you let the world acquainted with history of our shauka tribe... people like you preserving the ancient and legendary legacy of uttarakhand...hats off man.
My mother very fondly tells me stories how when she was a kid , shaukas would come with large herd of goats,sheeps,horses & dogs and would stop by my mother's grandmother, they would sell salt,wollen dan,jadibuti and take pulses,oil etc with them as they descend to pithoragarh. Great video btw
My grandmother used to tell me same stories, now they don't come but in old days they used to come with their dogs and in their horses and sell all those stuff
Beautifully created video, the historical timelines ,anthropological and geographical references make the process of understanding so much easier ,really appreciate the efforts .
Thank you Harshit Broo … for creating such insightful content about the Bhotiya community . As i am from Munsiyari, it gave me goosebumps ❤❤to learn more about my own Town . Your hard work and quality content are truly appreciated Bro. Keep up the great work ❤❤
Not making any stereotype..my grandmother use to tell me stories about huniya, bhotiya, jhupp(yalk) their goods dried meat, yalk butter .. but she also told me huniya were cannibals , kidnapped and ate men… how true is this ¿
This is most welcome important documentary stories to preserve and high time to pass on new generations. Thank you so much!!! I was a few still living Tibetans, originally from Taklakot , Tibet. We experienced terrible hardships of refugee lives in early sixties in a camp called SANDEO near by Didihat. Appreciate if you could kindly provide some such stories books. Thank you again.
Amzing video! being from uttrakhand it makes me realise that our genetic, economic and social history is different than rest of india and what we read in ncerts during school. Your insightful videos will be important source of information for those interested in history of uttrakhand for years to come. keep up with the ggod work :)
I recently went to Munsyari and I was in awe for a month. There I heard about Milam trek.. After watching this masterpiece, I can't wait to go there again.. What a fabulous work🙌🙏
मेरे परदादा जी जब मैं बहुत छोटी थी तो हमे गीत के माध्यम से यह सुनाया करते थे, तिब्बत व्यापार यह सब की कहानी भी सुनते थे, मेरे डैडी ने सब कुछ वीडियो रिकॉर्डिंग करके रखी हुई हैं स्पेशली वीडियोग्राफर को बुलाकर। सच में हमने हमारी सांस्कृतिक धरोहर खो दिए, प्रकृति ने तो सब कुछ एक बनाया था, हम इंसानों ने उसमें सीमाएं बना दी, और अब उन सीमाओं के लिए लड़ते लड़ते हम अपनी संस्कृति को ही बंजार बना रहे हैं💔। आखिर लोगों को कब समझ में आएगा इंसान इंसानियत सबसे जरूरी है, सत्ता राजनीति तो आती जाती रहेगी। मैंने अपनी आंखों से देखा है जितना थोड़ा बहुत लिपुलेख का व्यापार होता था अभी कोरोना से पहले भी, जब से बंद हुआ है, वहां के लोगों को जीवन यापन के लिए भी इतनी कठिनाइयां हो रही है, जो लोग व्यापारी हुआ करते थे, आज के पोडर, मजदूरी आदि कर के अपनी जीविका चला रहे हैं। सरकार ने तो आदेश दे दिया, अब व्यापार बंद हो गया, लेकिन क्या इस बारे में सोचा कि व्यापार बंद होने के बाद, उन लोगों का क्या होगा जो इस व्यापार पर ही अपना घर चलाते थे?
Quality content bhai. 👏 I wish to hear your lectures in situ. The way you use maps and 3d rendering is just awesome. Please keep producing such great content.
Very true and facts. Many Bhutia, Bhotiyas or bhotay people in Nepal 🇳🇵 don’t know 🤷 their history coz they were brain washed by kings & politicians. Sad & pathetic.beautifully done ✅ n m impressive by your work absolutely beautiful.
As a person from Shuaka community, I would like acknowledge it is the finest documentry on our tribe I came across. Well words put together! Also I would correct slight mistake that Ralam valley culturally and linguistically diffrent to Shuakas. The inhabitants of that valley are resisded by rung tribe. They share more similarities with Rungs from Darma and had high altitute trek routes that connected Darma valley. Also Ralam valley is not considerd as part of malla Johar valley. Besides Jad bhota, the Rung tribe has retain some form Buddhist and bon practises. They also have lamas and buddhist chapels. Although the numbers are miniscule but they still exists today. Few members of rung community have revived buddhist traditions.
Thankyou very much! And, while Ralam is culturally distinct from Johar as you mentioned, the village does come under Johar, at least administratively, because the access to the village is orders of magnitude easier from Johar valley than Darma, the physical barrier between Ralam and Darma is huge.
New sub here, you answered a lot of questions I've always wanted to know. I'm 54 this year and finally found someone who explained the historical facts. Thank you
हर बार की तरह जानदार शानदार और जानकारी से भरा एपिसोड। शेखर पाठक जी और भाई को बहुत बहुत आभार। एक एपिसोड चन्द राजाओं को राजधानी चम्पावत पर भी बन जाता तो बहुत ही बढ़िया हो जाता।
Harshit Ji , keep doing this tremendously good n rich quality work - Your vlogs certainly match the standards of documentaries by global studio chains.. you have an amazing talent of presentation plus your passion and respect for Uttarakhand and People of Uttarakhand, does show up in your vlogs 🙏
नमस्कार हर्षित भईया, आपने जिस तरह से भूटिया जनजाति की पूरी हिस्ट्री बताई वह बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है। जैसे जैसे आप हिस्ट्री बताई मैं उसमें खोता चला गया। देखने लगा ये भी एक उत्तराखंड था। वैसे मैं दुर्ग छत्तीसगढ़ से आपका विडियो देख रहा, मुझे बहुत कुछ सीखने को मिला। क्यूंकि हिस्ट्री जानने में मुझे भी थोड़ा बहुत ज्ञान है। एक बार आपको और आपके टीम ने बहुत ही बढ़िया से प्रस्तुति दी है। यह जानकारी उत्तराखंड के सभी वर्ग को देखना चाहिए, या फिर जानने का प्रयास करना चाहिए। हम सभी तक यह फिल्म पहुंचाने के लिए धन्यवाद🙏💓💐
Johar Valley in Munsiyari is a scenic and culturally rich place. It is known for its stunning landscapes, quaint villages and the vibrant culture of the Johari people. The valley offers a mesmerizing backdrop with snow-clad peaks, lush green meadows and Milam Glacier that adds to its charm. Thank you so much for describing the Johar Valley (Bhotiya tribe) so beautifully. If you have specific questions or need more information, feel free to ask 🤗 LOVe From Munsyari Hills 🙏
Well-researched summary ! Btw, the subject-🎉 community is most-misunderstood in larger parts of Kumaun . In Garhwal, they are better integrated with the mainstream and their border villages are well-preserved and maintained because of better road connectivity. Thanks and keep the torch aloft.🎉🎉
Winter migration happens in many parts of Nepal not only adjacent to Uttarakhand. There are hundreds of villages from where people migrate to low lands during peak winter.
@@basantrajdhungana9666 you have wrong information. Being a trekking enthusiast I've been to many remote mountain places and there are many villages that migrate when there is too much snow. Upper Dolpo, Mustang,Manang ,Tsum Valley , Rolwaling valley ,Dhorpatan etc , you'll find those migratory villages. And for Far West the video says that there are such villages adjacent to Uttarakhand.
Meri amma ne bataya tha ek baar mujhe ye sab, wo bolti thi hud Desh se aate the hudi saaman bhechne. So nice to know all this in detail. Amazing video Harshit ❤
आपने बहुत सही जानकारी दी है। कुछ लोग तो गलत लिखते है ।जिसे पढ़कर हमैं अच्छा नहीं लगता है। हम लोग राजपूत है और कुमाऊँनी संस्कृति वाले है। बोली भी लगभग कुमाऊँनी है। सही जानकारी के लिए धन्यवाद। 🙏🏻
True , shaukas are more close to kumaonis, we are kumaoni ,even language is same just a little different dialect , culture, rituals in marriage is same as typical kumaoni the only difference is that we have mongoloid look ❤
Ab jauljibi mele me traditional dan, pankhi, shawl, chutka nhi milta... Qki Tibet ke janwar ab yaha nhi ate, pehle unke janwar bhotiya (shauka) Village me charte the.. or bhotiya (shauka) unke baal utarte the as a payment.

Abhi haldwani me kya huwa.... ? Jai uttrakhand, Jai himal.
The information you have provided through RUclips about the ancient tribes of the Himalayas in such a short time is a very good and hard-working effort, but still a lot is missing about these ancient tribes of Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh. I have been thinking for many years that I will contact you soon
The way this man is promoting the roots of Uttarakhand and showing the real culture, their lifestyle, their issues,etc..that is commendable! Keep going Harshit. Really well work from you. Way to go ahead. Come soon with new projects!
I am from haldwani and like most my parents to migrated from pahad so to provide us better education and for better health care facilities, do you know in haldwani be have "Johar mahautsav" its celebrated by bhotiya people its like a cultural fair, they serve there traditional food and dance and everything all people are invited and are free to come, haldwani has all type of kumaoni communities from johar valley to almora every type of kumaoni person is here and we have good ammount of bohotiya settlement thanks to that i have many bhotoiya friends as well, even though we all miss our pahad dearly, sometimes i feel that Haldwani serves as a melting point of all kumaoni culture and all different communities become friends and get to know each other is one of the positive and delightful side of the coin, a thing which allows me to see positive in this city when I sadly and angrily criticize govt for not developing our villages and distroying our culture the anger also become directed towards the city I myself am from
The line “it took many years to create but took only a year to stopped” was powerful…… even in Arunachal 1962 stopped many things which was aged old, between Arunachal and tibet, now we only hear stories about them. from west to east many tribes are special relation with tibet, that lost and cut off after that war….
Thank you harshit!! As a shauka I don't know much about my culture and origin I read several books but this video gives all the information about it. This video really helped me to understand about our origin and culture. Thanks again!!!
From my Village this tribes people's comes down to plains areas in winter seasons in the September October months. There has very dangerous dog botiyas dog😍😍
Your videos worth every second brother .. visuals .. animation .voice .. language .. narration .. everything just perfect...may be any day I get a chance to work with you at any capacity...
Kudos! Harshit Simply Excellent 👌🏽 तुम्हारी मेहनत को सलाम है। महीनों तक इतनी जटिल रिसर्च कर के क्या ख़ूब सरलता से पेश किया है। And I am not saying this, because I belong to Johar valley. I am a big fan, especially of the objective approach you carry. One Man Army More power to you ❤ Dr. Pathak's concern is also noteworthy. & beautiful picturization by Mr. Bafila. 🎉🎉 Looking forward to more such masterpieces.
@@bliss5522no it's just a myth The majority of pahadi are khas not Marathi rajsthani we have nothing to command with desi our culture is totally different
I have been to Munsyari several years ago and was extremely impressed with the people and places in that region. It was far different from what modern Uttarakand modern society is today.
Well done Harshit! 👏The effort you put in research and editing your videos is appreciable. Everything is perfect about your videos, the topic you choose, the introduction, dialogues with the background music and the simplified way of explaining the geographical terms with help of maps🙌❤ you've become my favorite RUclipsr.
Everything is incredibly well done, and there is an endless number of knowledge about our state. As a keen learner of Uttarakhand's culture and history, I must say that you are doing an incredible job of keeping to the state's little-known past. This is the icing on the cake, dude. Eagerly awaiting your upcoming film featuring a different aspect of our ethnic Garhwali and Kumaoni culture ✨💙
Tibetans were called Bhote since 7AD by North Indians and Nepali with whom they had traded and travelled to study Buddhism. The most famous Bhote was Thonmi Sam Bhota who went to India to study Sandkrit and Grammar. He composed the Tibetan alphabet and grammer based on Panini. It is not 1962 war but 1959 occupation of Tibet that impacted the trade. Indian still reluctant to say the Chinese invasion and occupation of Tibet as the main cause. China confiscated property of Tibetans and were carted by Beijing as loot as invaders do - such as British looted India.
2:09 very important point raised, Harshit! The term _bhotia_ is indeed a misapplied or inappropriate name for the trading communities of the north. It's very sad that many people within State and even the Tribal Commission is unaware of it.
प्रिय अनुज हर्षित रोतेला जी आपका प्रस्तुतीकरण सबसे ज्यादा प्रभावशाली है ईश्वर आपको सपरिवार सदैव सुखी और आनंदित रखें आपने पूरे देश को अनमोल जानकारी दी है
I have been in Munsiyari in mid January 2024. I came across the details about this illustrious Shauka folks when visited Tribal Musuem there and also with some local guys to know more about Johar and Munsiyari. I am such fascinated with history and culture of this land that, not a single day pass when I dont read or search anything regarding Munsiyari,Milam,Darma. This video is best explaining the details of this land. Thanks and keep going. Best of Luck.
The World should support the people of Tibet, We call it's as the Roof of the World. Predominantly a Buddhist Country. People of the world should understand & not waste their money on wars, rather develop such nations. Let's build a better Planet. #. Jai Sri Ram 😊
I only recently travelled extensively in those regions because of my best friend being a Shauka Toliya. Haven’t done the trek through the valley yet but have visited Munsiyari multiple times. Heard a lot of stories about the culture but this documentary just explained everything in a crystal clear manner. Beautifully made! Thank You for sharing and explaining this beautifully rare cultural heritage to us non-Uttarakhandis. Stunning and mysterious are two words that come to my mind when I think of that region. Hope to do the trek to Milam this year. Keep up the good work brother.
Amazing video as usual❤ Btw can you consider making a video on our languages as well, and how they are independent languages not dialects, the tag they have with them, their rich history, vocab and grammar. Linguistics is a very interesting topic and it'll be even more interesting if you talk about it.
Wow, Very mesmerizing presentation ❤ a lot of valuable information are given in this video. Hats off to your hard work harshit i truly appreciate your work
Hello 🙏🏻🌿🌿✨ I totally admire your work. When we study History in schools, the Northern mountain people history is not taught. I'm sure very less percentage of Indians know the History of Northern mountains. It's a great effort that We come to know about such facts of Himachal and Uttarakhand history. I'll always look forward for more such topics. GREAT WORK 👍🏻👍🏻✨✨🙏🏻
Hi such a great video.. can you please share your reference of historical context and books you refered to make such amazing content on Shaukas. It's super interesting and seems like ocean of knowledge. It would be of great help if you could share material for research. I'd be gald to receive your help. 😊 Thanks.

As a Bhotiya ( A Rung from Darma ) i felt, you did justice to the whole Uttarakhandi Bhotiya Community by just one video on Shaukas!
There were few more misnomers i would like to clarify in context to the Rungs, as the Rung from Darma are Darmaani ( not Darmiya ), Bangbani for Rungs in Chaudas and Byangpa for Rungs in Vyas
also, People in Ralam Valley are also Rung.
Thank You again !!
In context to other Bhotiyas of Uttarakhand, Tolchhas and Marchhas are collectively known as Rongpa
and there is one more Community Khampa, From The Kham province of Tibet , some of them have been residing in uttarakhand during this Trade period, especially in the Khimling village of Darma Valley, today Khimling has been almost abandoned, Groups of Khampas are living in Dharchula, Almora etc.

your information about uttrakhand history is to good harshit sir
हर बार की तरह जानदार शानदार और जानकारी से भरा एपिसोड। शेखर पाठक जी और भाई को बहुत बहुत आभार। एक एपिसोड चन्द राजाओं को राजधानी चम्पावत पर भी बन जाता तो बहुत ही बढ़िया हो जाता।
Beautiful Brother ❤❤
Harshit Ji , keep doing this tremendously good n rich quality work -
Your vlogs certainly match the standards of documentaries by global studio chains..
you have an amazing talent of presentation plus your passion and respect for Uttarakhand and People of Uttarakhand, does show up in your vlogs 🙏
Thanks a ton!
Fabulous recording of culture and history of Kumoan which I visited as a tourist in 1992. Thanks for the subtitles.
Thankyou!
नमस्कार हर्षित भईया, आपने जिस तरह से भूटिया जनजाति की पूरी हिस्ट्री बताई वह बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है। जैसे जैसे आप हिस्ट्री बताई मैं उसमें खोता चला गया। देखने लगा ये भी एक उत्तराखंड था। वैसे मैं दुर्ग छत्तीसगढ़ से आपका विडियो देख रहा, मुझे बहुत कुछ सीखने को मिला। क्यूंकि हिस्ट्री जानने में मुझे भी थोड़ा बहुत ज्ञान है। एक बार आपको और आपके टीम ने बहुत ही बढ़िया से प्रस्तुति दी है। यह जानकारी उत्तराखंड के सभी वर्ग को देखना चाहिए, या फिर जानने का प्रयास करना चाहिए। हम सभी तक यह फिल्म पहुंचाने के लिए धन्यवाद🙏💓💐
finally someone made a video on the rich heritage of ours, thank you dajyu !
Johar Valley in Munsiyari is a scenic and culturally rich place. It is known for its stunning landscapes, quaint villages and the vibrant culture of the Johari people. The valley offers a mesmerizing backdrop with snow-clad peaks, lush green meadows and Milam Glacier that adds to its charm. Thank you so much for describing the Johar Valley (Bhotiya tribe) so beautifully. If you have specific questions or need more information, feel free to ask 🤗 LOVe From Munsyari Hills 🙏
Well-researched summary ! Btw, the subject-🎉 community is most-misunderstood in larger parts of Kumaun . In Garhwal, they are better integrated with the mainstream and their border villages are well-preserved and maintained because of better road connectivity.
Thanks and keep the torch aloft.🎉🎉
Winter migration happens in many parts of Nepal not only adjacent to Uttarakhand. There are hundreds of villages from where people migrate to low lands during peak winter.
Bro we in nepal dont have migratory villages in winter only in summer nepali lived in goth (jhopadi)
@@basantrajdhungana9666 you have wrong information. Being a trekking enthusiast I've been to many remote mountain places and there are many villages that migrate when there is too much snow. Upper Dolpo, Mustang,Manang ,Tsum Valley , Rolwaling valley ,Dhorpatan etc , you'll find those migratory villages. And for Far West the video says that there are such villages adjacent to Uttarakhand.
Thankyou for this video Harshit. God bless you brother.
Welcome!
Wonderful ..seriously... I had been to Uttarakhand many times but never imagined the richness of the culture and history..
Meri amma ne bataya tha ek baar mujhe ye sab, wo bolti thi hud Desh se aate the hudi saaman bhechne. So nice to know all this in detail. Amazing video Harshit ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
आपने बहुत सही जानकारी दी है। कुछ लोग तो गलत लिखते है ।जिसे पढ़कर हमैं अच्छा नहीं लगता है। हम लोग राजपूत है और कुमाऊँनी संस्कृति वाले है। बोली भी लगभग कुमाऊँनी है। सही जानकारी के लिए धन्यवाद। 🙏🏻
Rajput ka matlab ye nahi ke aap bahar se aaye ho. Uttarakhand ke khas log hamesa se kashtriya mane jate the
Rajput hamare purvaj the hm nahi
True , shaukas are more close to kumaonis, we are kumaoni ,even language is same just a little different dialect , culture, rituals in marriage is same as typical kumaoni
the only difference is that we have mongoloid look ❤
Ab jauljibi mele me traditional dan, pankhi, shawl, chutka nhi milta... Qki Tibet ke janwar ab yaha nhi ate, pehle unke janwar bhotiya (shauka) Village me charte the.. or bhotiya (shauka) unke baal utarte the as a payment. Ye vyapar 1962 ke bad band huwa.. pr ajkl ka uttrakhandi hair cutting ✂️, butcher's mutton chicken, fruits vegetables, automobile mechanic, timber work, cosmetic beauty item shop sabhi ke liye muslim pr dependent hai... 100 rs jyada rent or 10 rs discount ke liye wo aisa krta hai, fir demography change hoti hai, riots hote hain to regret krta hai. Abhi haldwani me kya huwa.... ? Jai uttrakhand, Jai himal.
The information you have provided through RUclips about the ancient tribes of the Himalayas in such a short time is a very good and hard-working effort, but still a lot is missing about these ancient tribes of Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh. I have been thinking for many years that I will contact you soon
The way this man is promoting the roots of Uttarakhand and showing the real culture, their lifestyle, their issues,etc..that is commendable! Keep going Harshit. Really well work from you. Way to go ahead. Come soon with new projects!
I am from haldwani and like most my parents to migrated from pahad so to provide us better education and for better health care facilities, do you know in haldwani be have "Johar mahautsav" its celebrated by bhotiya people its like a cultural fair, they serve there traditional food and dance and everything all people are invited and are free to come, haldwani has all type of kumaoni communities from johar valley to almora every type of kumaoni person is here and we have good ammount of bohotiya settlement thanks to that i have many bhotoiya friends as well, even though we all miss our pahad dearly, sometimes i feel that Haldwani serves as a melting point of all kumaoni culture and all different communities become friends and get to know each other is one of the positive and delightful side of the coin, a thing which allows me to see positive in this city when I sadly and angrily criticize govt for not developing our villages and distroying our culture the anger also become directed towards the city I myself am from
Great content brother! Hope there is more to come in future regarding the history of Uttarakhand.
Beautiful depicrion of the history,cukture and business of bhotiya ppl. I felt like i am living it. Beautifully created. Thanks
Hey you are a very good Orator & Thank you so much for the Information Regarding the Uttrakhand....
The line “it took many years to create but took only a year to stopped” was powerful…… even in Arunachal 1962 stopped many things which was aged old, between Arunachal and tibet, now we only hear stories about them. from west to east many tribes are special relation with tibet, that lost and cut off after that war….
Trade is open but border is closed ..😶
Border should open Asap
Trade is open but border is closed ..😶
Border should open Asap
Strong enterprising people thrived in extreme climatic conditions, mesmerizing information. Kudos to Harshit ji.👍
Thank you harshit!!
As a shauka
I don't know much about my culture and origin I read several books but this video gives all the information about it.
This video really helped me to understand about our origin and culture.
Thanks again!!!
Goosebumps Goosebumps Goosebumps. Thrilled to know history of Bhotiya and Kumaun. I am from Bageshwar Uttarakhand. ❤
From my Village this tribes people's comes down to plains areas in winter seasons in the September October months. There has very dangerous dog botiyas dog😍😍
Your videos worth every second brother .. visuals .. animation .voice .. language .. narration .. everything just perfect...may be any day I get a chance to work with you at any capacity...
Dajyu mast👍👍
Kudos! Harshit
Simply Excellent 👌🏽
तुम्हारी मेहनत को सलाम है। महीनों तक इतनी जटिल रिसर्च कर के क्या ख़ूब सरलता से पेश किया है।
And I am not saying this, because I belong to Johar valley.
I am a big fan, especially of the objective approach you carry.
One Man Army
More power to you ❤
Dr. Pathak's concern is also noteworthy.
& beautiful picturization by Mr. Bafila.
🎉🎉
Looking forward to more such masterpieces.
Thankyou very much!
I m a Marathi....But something deep inside me is true pahadi...I get a super positive vibe when I see mountains especially the Himalayas...
Actually many marathi people migrated to uttrakhand long ago.
@@bliss5522no it's just a myth The majority of pahadi are khas not Marathi rajsthani we have nothing to command with desi our culture is totally different
बहुत ही बेहतरीन संकलन के लिए आपका आभार धन्यवाद
Dhanyawaad
Excellent presentation 🎉
I have been to Munsyari several years ago and was extremely impressed with the people and places in that region. It was far different from what modern Uttarakand modern society is today.
I just loved how simple and sensible you covered ..it's amazing our ancestors life is very important to learn we should just know our roots ..🌹
Bahut mehnat karke banaya hai ye video aapne.I wish, Aap jaldi hi famous ho jao.
Well done Harshit! 👏The effort you put in research and editing your videos is appreciable. Everything is perfect about your videos, the topic you choose, the introduction, dialogues with the background music and the simplified way of explaining the geographical terms with help of maps🙌❤ you've become my favorite RUclipsr.
Thanks a ton!
Everything is incredibly well done, and there is an endless number of knowledge about our state.
As a keen learner of Uttarakhand's culture and history, I must say that you are doing an incredible job of keeping to the state's little-known past. This is the icing on the cake, dude.
Eagerly awaiting your upcoming film featuring a different aspect of our ethnic Garhwali and Kumaoni culture ✨💙
Thanks!
A very well done documentary ... great Jon in narrating a wonderfully crafted story of our home... Well Done Harshit..
Thanks brother for this amazing video..loved it totally❤❤❤

Harshit bhai....doing great for uttarakhand
Keep doing and , i am waiting for next one 👍👍💯
GOD BLESS ,JAI NANDADEVI
Tibetans were called Bhote since 7AD by North Indians and Nepali with whom they had traded and travelled to study Buddhism. The most famous Bhote was Thonmi Sam Bhota who went to India to study Sandkrit and Grammar. He composed the Tibetan alphabet and grammer based on Panini.
It is not 1962 war but 1959 occupation of Tibet that impacted the trade. Indian still reluctant to say the Chinese invasion and occupation of Tibet as the main cause.
China confiscated property of Tibetans and were carted by Beijing as loot as invaders do - such as British looted India.
Ur justification is more reasonable
Thanks for clearing it !
2:09 very important point raised, Harshit!
The term _bhotia_ is indeed a misapplied or inappropriate name for the trading communities of the north.
It's very sad that many people within State and even the Tribal Commission is unaware of it.
It is unfortunate indeed.
प्रिय अनुज हर्षित रोतेला जी आपका प्रस्तुतीकरण सबसे ज्यादा प्रभावशाली है
ईश्वर आपको सपरिवार सदैव सुखी और आनंदित रखें
आपने पूरे देश को अनमोल जानकारी दी है
I have been in Munsiyari in mid January 2024. I came across the details about this illustrious Shauka folks when visited Tribal Musuem there and also with some local guys to know more about Johar and Munsiyari. I am such fascinated with history and culture of this land that, not a single day pass when I dont read or search anything regarding Munsiyari,Milam,Darma. This video is best explaining the details of this land. Thanks and keep going. Best of Luck.
Thanks
The World should support the people of Tibet, We call it's as the Roof of the World. Predominantly a Buddhist Country. People of the world should understand & not waste their money on wars, rather develop such nations. Let's build a better Planet. #. Jai Sri Ram 😊
I only recently travelled extensively in those regions because of my best friend being a Shauka Toliya. Haven’t done the trek through the valley yet but have visited Munsiyari multiple times. Heard a lot of stories about the culture but this documentary just explained everything in a crystal clear manner. Beautifully made! Thank You for sharing and explaining this beautifully rare cultural heritage to us non-Uttarakhandis. Stunning and mysterious are two words that come to my mind when I think of that region. Hope to do the trek to Milam this year. Keep up the good work brother.
Thanks
Well Done Brother. Your videos are amazing and informative. Keep up the good work
Harshit your videos are osm.Kindly make detail video on kumoani panchang .
Lots of best wishes from Ranikhet❤
हिमालय की बहुत ही रोचक जानकारी।
थेंक्स
Amazing video as usual❤
Btw can you consider making a video on our languages as well, and how they are independent languages not dialects, the tag they have with them, their rich history, vocab and grammar. Linguistics is a very interesting topic and it'll be even more interesting if you talk about it.
Lets see what is possible in the future.
Wow, Very mesmerizing presentation ❤ a lot of valuable information are given in this video.
Hats off to your hard work harshit i truly appreciate your work
love your videos..... presentation is really awesome ❤
This is soo beautiful and immersive.. very simple and elegant... Great work 👏
Hello 🙏🏻🌿🌿✨ I totally admire your work. When we study History in schools, the Northern mountain people history is not taught. I'm sure very less percentage of Indians know the History of Northern mountains. It's a great effort that We come to know about such facts of Himachal and Uttarakhand history. I'll always look forward for more such topics. GREAT WORK 👍🏻👍🏻✨✨🙏🏻
Thankyou!
हम भोटिया लोगो से शहरो में बहुत भेद भाव किया जाता है कोई तो हमे भारतीय ही नहीं मानते
Why I’m crying 🤌🙇
Hi such a great video.. can you please share your reference of historical context and books you refered to make such amazing content on Shaukas. It's super interesting and seems like ocean of knowledge. It would be of great help if you could share material for research. I'd be gald to receive your help. 😊 Thanks.
जोहार घाटी को जानने की अनूठी पहल❤️
thank you sir I'm also shauka bhotiya
Amazing work 👍👍enjoyed watching every second, everything was so perfect. Also Thanks to Bhotiyas they have preserved Kumaoni culture so well
