00:00Jan Nayak Karpuri Thakur was the messiah of the poor,

00:04he was considered a symbol of honesty and devotion.

00:09The example set by Jan Nayak in politics is still in people's hearts.

00:16From 1952 to 1957-1962 elections,

00:21Lohia was not able to do anything.

00:22Then in 1964, he went and said,

00:24that there is a meeting of the Socialist Party,

00:27in 1965, and in 1967 elections are held.

00:31You know that Mahayana Prasad becomes the Chief Minister,

00:34and Karpuri Thakur becomes the Chief Minister.

00:36So Karpuri Thakur did the work of bringing his ideals to the ground.

00:44He used to say that if we get five leaders like Karpuri Thakur,

00:48then I will change the country.

00:50Because he has an anecdote from his childhood,

00:52that he had a complete support system,

00:55his village was Pitonjhiya,

00:56whereas today Karpuri Gram is Kalata.

00:59There was a teacher, Raja Guruji,

01:03he also came from the Savarna caste, he used to teach the Savarnas.

01:06He had a great desire to get tuition from them,

01:08when he must have been in the primary class.

01:11So when he used to come from EBC,

01:14he was not allowed,

01:16the social order that was there,

01:18he thought that it will be breached, it will be destroyed.

01:21But that teacher,

01:23because a teacher is a teacher,

01:25he found a way,

01:26he said that I will teach in Khaliyan,

01:29and I will speak loudly,

01:31you sit behind the wall on the other side,

01:33listen to everything.

01:35So in this way,

01:36like Dronacharya was of Arjun,

01:38so in that way he taught him,

01:41this was his childhood.

01:43One is his fee,

01:45to pay the fee,

01:46he was not able to pay the school fee,

01:48so he used to go to the landlord of the village.

01:51So the landlord said,

01:52I want the fee,

01:532 rupees,

01:54there was a price of 2 rupees in that,

01:55so he said,

01:56so after making him bathe 27 buckets of water,

01:59he got the fee.

02:01And the third important thing is,

02:03that how did he become Karpuri,

02:06his name was Kapuri,

02:07his parents had named him Kapuri.

02:10So this is the thing,

02:11he is studying in class 8,

02:13he is from Krishna Talkies,

02:15Samastipur.

02:16Ram Nandan Mishra is giving a speech there,

02:18he has also gone with a delegation of students,

02:21and there is a freedom movement going on.

02:23He gives a very interesting speech,

02:25every time Thakur gets a chance.

02:27So he calls and says,

02:28what is your name?

02:29He says,

02:30Kapuri.

02:31He says,

02:32how can you be Kapuri?

02:33You are Karpuri,

02:34whose fragrance will spread far and wide.

02:37So since then,

02:38the name Karpuri started coming,

02:39although in his certificate,

02:40in the 12th certificate,

02:41still Kapuri is written,

02:43Kapuri Thakur.

02:44He becomes the Chief Minister for the first time,

02:47in between 1971,

02:49in December 1970,

02:50and he stays till June.

02:52At that time,

02:53Samastipur was not there,

02:54it was a part of Darbhanga.

02:56At that time,

02:57his father was still in the village,

02:59in his business,

03:00he used to cut hair,

03:01he used to shave.

03:02So the villagers,

03:04the landlords,

03:05they said,

03:06call him,

03:07Gokul Thakur.

03:08So he was not well,

03:09he did not go.

03:10So they forced him and brought him.

03:13So the Darbhanga administration came to know.

03:16Then this man was caught.

03:18The matter reached Karpuri Thakur,

03:19the Chief Minister.

03:20So Karpuri Thakur's message went,

03:22there was no mobile phone in it,

03:24that you will not arrest him,

03:25he is our villager.

03:27So he said,

03:28Sir,

03:29it is a question of the whole of Devpradesh.

03:31So he said,

03:32how many such fathers do you save every day?

03:36Today you came to know that

03:37you are the father of the Chief Minister,

03:38save him.

03:39So this is the cycle of time,

03:41with time,

03:42everything will be fine one day.

03:44Once there was a wedding,

03:46there was a wedding at Suraj Narayan Singh's house.

03:49He was the Chief Minister.

03:51So,

03:52when he reaches,

03:55Ramanand Tiwari is also there on the stage.

03:57So come, come.

03:58He never used to say Karpuri,

03:59he used to say Kapuri.

04:00Come, Mr. Karpuri.

04:01Oh, oh,

04:02your mustache is fixed.

04:04So he grinds his teeth and says,

04:06now the work is not going to work with the mustache.

04:09So the assertion of an OBC,

04:11so you can see that pain in these lines of his.

04:15Once upon a time,

04:17he had a bill of Rs. 600,

04:20in the Legislative Assembly.

04:21It was during the time of the Leader's Opposition.

04:24So,

04:25to get the bill passed,

04:27they give it to the clerk.

04:29So,

04:30when they go to follow up,

04:31the clerk says,

04:32what will happen with this much,

04:34make it Rs. 1300,

04:35a little less.

04:37So he said,

04:38pass the bill as much as you have.

04:42Now I know where corruption comes from.

04:46And once upon a time,

04:47for the party's cards club,

04:49he needed some donation.

04:51So he spoke to someone.

04:53So that person kept the money.

04:56So he asked,

04:57how much do you want, Mr. Karpuri?

04:59He said,

05:00if I could get Rs. 5000,

05:01my work would have been done.

05:03That person had kept Rs. 50,000.

05:05So Mr. Karpuri's assistant said,

05:07Sir, he had kept Rs. 50,000.

05:09He said,

05:10Rs. 5000 is donation,

05:12Rs. 50,000 is bribe.

05:14This is the difference.

05:15So, in this way,

05:16in the political life,

05:17information,

05:18honesty.

05:19Now,

05:20I will tell you one thing.

05:21This is from the 70's,

05:24during the emergency period.

05:25He is travelling in Delhi.

05:27He said to a JNU professor,

05:30that our money is over.

05:32We need Rs. 500.

05:34So he offered Rs. 1000.

05:36He said,

05:37we will not take Rs. 1000.

05:38After a lot of hard work,

05:39he managed to get Rs. 750.

05:41When a JNU professor came to him,

05:44and asked him to get him a job,

05:47he used to buy a weapon and give it to him.

05:52And he used to say,

05:53do the work of a JNU professor.

05:55This is the best.

05:57Ranjeet with Ashok.
