Veerwal

Veerwal (also spelled as Virwal) is a Dalit community in the North India region in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab, in India.

The Veerwals are followers of Baba Bhole nath Maharaj who introduced them to peace and happiness in his life.^[1] His death anniversary is celebrated by the All Indian Jat Veerwal Jat Sangh every year.^[2]

Sameer Pavan Dham in Ahimsa Nagar in Chittorgarh serves as a main center.^[3] Ahimsa Nagar, located about 4 miles from Chittorgarh, was inaugurated by Mohanlal Sukhadia in 1966. Even though Sameer Muniji belonged to the Sthanakvasi tradition, Sameer Pavan Dham hosts Jain dignitaries from other traditions also.^[4]
