Basant Singh, son of Sundar Singh, Village Jain (or Jian), District
Hoshiarpur. He first went to Vancouver in 1906 but returned to India in
1913 and left again for America in 1915. There was no complaint against
him while he was at his village except that he associated with Piara Singh
of Langeri (P-25). Early in 1922 he was reported to be residing in
Loomis, to be a prominent Ramchandra supporter and a close adherent of
the Ghadr Party. He seems to have been an active member of the Ghadr
Party all along and was reported to be so till last year.
