Ujagar Singh, alias Jawala Singh, son of Partab Singh, Village Nangal, P. S. Mahilpur, District Hoshiarpur. Originally named Jawala Singh, he served in the 25th Punjabis. He first went to America in 1906 in company with his brother Diwan Singh. On his return to India in 1910 he assumed the name of Ujagar Singh and shortly afterwards got into touch with Piara Singh of Langeri (P-25), Nawab Khan of village Halwara, district Ludhiana (formerly a prominent member of the Ghadr Party) and other Ghadrites who had then returned from America, and began to preach sedition. He was one of the founders of a Khalsa School in Nangal Kalan in 1914 which ultimately became a hot bed of Sikh revolutionaries. He was an associate of Jawand Singh of Nangal Kalan, district Hoshiarpur (hanged in the 4th Supplementary Conspiracy Case), and Hira Singh (H- 69). His house was searched in connection with a dacoity which occurred towards the end of December 1914 in Banga Police Station, and some letters of a seditious nature sent by Maya Singh of village Piplanwala, district Hoshiarpur (a "Tosha Maru" passenger), Battan Singh of village Kari, district Hoshiarpur (dead), and Kartar Singh (K-32) were recovered. He was arrested and prosecuted along with others but later all were acquitted on appeal to the High Court. He was restricted under the Ingress into India Ordinance in 1916, But the restrictions were apparently removed in 1919. He left for Canada in 1922-23 and returned home in July 1927. In 1927 he was reported to be mixing with extremist returned emigrants of the Doaba.
