Here is an illustrious page from history that you must know!
When Hitler invaded Poland and started World War II, the Polish soldiers left 500 women and 200 children on a ship and left them in the sea. They told the Captain to take them to any country where they can get shelter, and if we are alive or survived, then we will meet again.
The ship, filled with five hundred refugees, police, women, and two hundred children, reached the harbor port of Iran. There was no permission to shelter anyone and they were not even allowed to land. Then they could not get help even in Seychelles, and there was no permission even in Aden. Finally, the ship wandering in the sea came to the coast of Jamnagar in Gujarat, where the Maharaja of Jamnagar, “Jam Sahab Digvijay Singh, ” not only gave shelter to five hundred women but also gave their children free education in Balachiri, an Army School. These refugees stayed in Jamnagar for nine years. One of the children of those refugee children later became the Prime Minister of Poland.
Even today, the descendants of those refugees come to Jamnagar every year and remember their ancestors.
In Poland, the name of many roads in the capital of Warsaw is named after Maharaja Jam Sahib. Every year Poland newspapers print articles about Maharaja Jam Saheb Digvijay Singh.
From ancient times, the text of the Indian Vasudhaiva Kutumbhakam (the whole world is a family) and tolerance have been known to the world.
