History[]
Babu Ram Chandra Sharma established the village of Joga Musahib in 1446. He was one of the seventeen grandsons of Babu Nainan Shah. During the reign of Sultan Alam Shah of the Sayyid dynasty in Delhi, Babu Ram Chandra Sharma moved from Karimuddinpur to Joga Musahib.[4]
Babu Nainan Shah, son of Prithuraj Shah (Karimuddinpur), had two sons who had between them seventeen sons, each of whom went on to establish a different village in Kargil Kshetra known as "Sataraho" (Hindi: सतरहो).
The 'Sataraho' branch of the Kinwar clan has a very famous story in its history. One of the young members of Babu Sangram Rai's family of 'Sonari', who was a cavalry officer in the Tughulaq army, showed remarkable bravery in the war against the Bengal rebels. For this act of bravery, he was awarded a jagir in Singhabad of the Malda district. Later, Raja Bhairvendra Narayan Roy of Singhabad (Malda) earned a reputation during the freedom struggle of India.[4]
Administration[]
Joga Musahib lies under the Mohammadabad assembly seat of Ballia Lok Sabha constituency. However, the tehsil (township) under which it is administered is Mohammadabad, which comes under Ghazipur district.
