The image of the Rani Laxmi Bai riding a horse with her 8-year-old son Damador Rao tied on her back with a cloth battling Britishers is sketched in everyoneтАЩs mind.
Sadly, after Independence no government ever tried to seek an answer to the question. What happened to the minor Prince of Jhansi after LaxmibaiтАЩs martyrdom?
Only a handful are aware that the QueenтАЩs son Damador Rao and his next 5 generations lived an anonymous life in Indore that prides itself for being called Ahilya Nagari.
With no government or public help forthcoming, the first two generations of QueenтАЩs descendants spent their life in a rented house in abject poverty. No effort was ever made to locate them.
In fact, the QueenтАЩs descendants were staying in the city till 2021. Later, they shifted to Nagpur, where the sixth generation descendant now works in a software company and prefers to lead an anonymous life. They have kept their association with Jhansi alive by attaching the moniker Jhansiwale in their name.
Software engineer Yogesh Arun Rao Jhansiwale (44) is the sixth generation member of Queen LaxmibaiтАЩs family. He currently lives in Nagpur with his wife Preet and two kids Preeyesh and Dhanika.
His father Arun Rao Jhansiwale too lives with him. Arun Rao, who retired as an assistant engineer in the then MP Electricity Board (MPEB), owns a house in Dhanwantri Nagar in Indore.
Damador Rao breathed his last on May 20, 1906 at the age of 57, leaving behind his son Laxman Rao Jhansiwale, who was given a pension of Rs 200 per month by the Britishers.
After the country attained independence on August 15, 1947, the then government asked Laxman Rao to vacate the house in the Residency area. The descendants of Rani Laxmibai had no option but to shift to a rented house in Peergali area of Rajwada, Indore.
Queen of JhansiтАЩs grandson worked as a freelance typist in the district court. As penury struck, the family often slept on an empty stomach. He left this world in extreme poverty in 1959 leaving behind son Krishna Rao Jhansiwale and daughter Chandrakanta Bai.
Krishna Rao, the great grandson of the Queen, worked as a steno-typist in Hukumchand Mill in Indore. He used to receive a pension of Rs 100 per month from the Central and UP government. After spending his entire life in the same rented house, Krishna Rao died in 1967.
After his demise, the Central and the UP government discontinued the pension of the descendants of the Queen.
His son Arun Rao Jhansiwale was an engineer and joined MPEB. In 1994, he purchased a house in Dhanwantari Nagar in Indore. In fact, after Queen left Jhansi with son Damodar Rao, the family had to wait for five generations to own a house.

Understanding Fatty Liver
Causes, Symptoms, and Management
Fatty liver, also known as hepatic steatosis, is a condition characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver cells. While a small amount of fat in the liver is normal, excessive fat build-up can lead to inflammation and liver damage. Fatty liver can be categorized into two main types: alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
*Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)**
NAFLD is the most common form of fatty liver and is not related to excessive alcohol consumption. It often occurs in individuals who are overweight or obese, have type 2 diabetes, or have metabolic syndrome. NAFLD encompasses a spectrum of liver conditions, ranging from simple fatty liver (steatosis) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which involves inflammation and liver cell damage. If left untreated, NASH can progress to more severe liver complications, such as cirrhosis and liver failure.
**Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (AFLD)**
As the name suggests, AFLD is caused by excessive alcohol consumption over an extended period. Alcohol is metabolized in the liver, and chronic alcohol abuse can lead to the accumulation of fat in liver cells, inflammation, and liver damage. AFLD may progress to more severe forms of liver disease, including alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis, if alcohol consumption continues.
*Causes of Fatty Liver* *
The exact cause of fatty liver is not fully understood, but several factors contribute to its development:
* *Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome**: Excess weight, particularly abdominal obesity, and conditions like insulin resistance and high blood sugar levels are closely associated with NAFLD.
**Type 2 Diabetes**: Insulin resistance and high blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes can contribute to the accumulation of fat in the liver.
* *High Cholesterol and Triglycerides**:
Elevated levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood can increase the risk of fatty liver.
* *Alcohol Consumption**: Chronic alcohol abuse is a significant risk factor for AFLD.
* *Genetic Factors**: Some genetic factors may predispose individuals to develop fatty liver.
*Symptoms of Fatty Liver**
Fatty liver often does not cause noticeable symptoms in its early stages. However, as the condition progresses, individuals may experience:
Fatigue
Weakness
Abdominal discomfort or pain in the upper right side
Enlarged liver
Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes) in severe cases
*Diagnosis and Management* *
Fatty liver is often diagnosed through blood tests, imaging studies (such as ultrasound or MRI), and sometimes a liver biopsy. Management of fatty liver focuses on addressing underlying risk factors and lifestyle modifications:
**Weight Loss**: Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise is essential for managing fatty liver, especially in individuals with NAFLD.
* *Healthy Diet**: A diet low in saturated fats, refined carbohydrates, and added sugars, and high in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can help reduce fat accumulation in the liver and improve liver health.
* *Regular Exercise**: Regular physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity, aid in weight loss, and reduce liver fat.
* *Limit Alcohol Consumption**: Individuals with AFLD should limit or avoid alcohol consumption altogether to prevent further liver damage.
* *Medications**: In some cases, medications may be prescribed to manage underlying conditions such as diabetes, high cholesterol, or metabolic syndrome.
In conclusion, fatty liver is a common condition characterized by the accumulation of fat in liver cells. While it may not cause noticeable symptoms in its early stages, fatty liver can progress to more severe liver complications if left untreated. Lifestyle modifications, including weight loss, healthy diet, regular exercise, and limiting alcohol consumption, are key components of managing fatty liver and improving liver health. Individuals with fatty liver should work closely with their healthcare providers to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to their needs.
