The Legend of Baba Jitto: A story of brutal Zamindari system and a bond of love between father and daughter

According to the legend Jit Mal (Baba Jitto) was a Brahmin and devotee of Mata Vaishno Devi and shifted to the Shamachak village in Jammu along with his daughter Bua Kori from Aghar village near Katra.

As he was landless, he requested Mehta Bir Singh, a feudal lord, to provide a piece of land for tilling. Feudal lord gave him a piece of barren land with the condition that one-fourth of produce would be taken by him. But when the time came, Zamindar wanted more than what was agreed.

Bawa Jitto pleaded with Mehta Bir Singh to follow the terms of the agreement but the goons of Mehta forcibly took the lion share of the crop.

Infuriated by the injustice, the helpless Jitmal, while uttering last words ‘sukki kanak nain khayaan mehtya, dinna ratt ralayi’ (don’t eat raw wheat, oh Mehta, let me mix my blood in it’), stabbed himself sitting on the heap of crop, leaving all grains drenched red with his blood.

His daughter Bua Kori with help of their pet dog Kalu, located her father’s dead body hidden in the Simbal tree trunk by the goons of Mehta.

She then lit the pyre and burnt herself with her father. It is said after that a fierce rain storm raged the area and the blood strained grains were washed away.

People now spread in Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, even the birds, who partook those grains along with Mehta Bur Singh and family members now cursed with ‘hatya’ of the Baba and Bua Kori, later suffered from various afflictions, including diseases, untimely deaths and misfortunes. To seek pardon from the wrath of the holy spirit, they not only asked for his forgiveness by worshiping him as a ‘kul devta’—family deity, but also making it mandatory on their future generations to venerate Bawa Jitto and pay annual homage at his shrine in Jammu close to International Border with Pakistan.
