[QUOTE="taran0, post: 174111, member: 18785"] a lot of what nidar teaches is made up from other martial arts mixed with chatka gatka of nihangs - he has learnt other styles and mixed them in. Nidar Singh makes many fake claims to being the final expo*nent of Shastar*vidy*a but in one of his inter*views in Mar*tial Arts Magazine he states:[INDENT]KG: Are there many mas*ters of this art? NS: As guns became more pop*u*lar the emphasis on this art decreased in the itini*er*ant Akali Nihang armies. Today there are not many mas*ters of this art alive. The ones I know, if still alive, are Nihang Baba Ram Singh in UP, India and Bhai Ranjit Singh of Patiala who has par*tial know*ledge of this art. There are no doubt oth*ers in Budha Dal (old*est Sikh mar*tial order estab*lished in 1606) but they being itin*er*ant men*dic*ants of secret*ive nature, are not easy to track down.
