Birth Place of Tulsidas

The author of famous book ‘Ramcharitmanas’ Goswami Tulsidas was born about five hundred years ago. Due to the absence of any written evidence, scholars were not sure about the exact birthplace of Tulsidas. However, on the basis of people’s hearsay it is said that he was born at Rajapur village. But the situation of Rajapur village has been a riddle for a long time. It was considered that Rajapur might be situated near Ayodhya or Varanasi or Chitrkoot or any other Hindu Pilgrimage palce. But the problem is that near all these religious places a village named Rajapur is found. Meanwhile some vested interest people fraudulently published a book entitled, Mool Gosian Charit’ in order to prove their claim that village Rajapur is situated near Chitrakoot.But the fact is that Gosian Charit is a book written by Baba Beni Madhav Das who was a disciple of Tulsidas. It is mentioned in this book that ‘Rajapur Sarju Ke Teera’ But in Moolgosian Charit it was changed as ‘ Rajapur Yamuna Ke Teera’ This change was made only to prove that Rajapur is situated near Chitrakoot on the bank of Yamuna. Not only this some influential people of Banda district, constructed a memeorial also at Rajapur village near Chitrakoot.A campaign was launched also to publicize that Tulsidas was born at Rajapur near Chitrakoot. However during the last few years many research scholars have done good work to locate the real Rajapur, the birthplace of Tulsidas. Following facts have emerged out of this research work.....

Moolgosiancharit is not a reliable book.

According to Banda district Gazetteer Tulsi came to Rajapur after crossing Yamuna River. According to Imperial Gazetteer of India, Kolkata, Tulsi was the founder of Rajapur village. Therefore this Rajapur cannot be the birthplace of Tulsidas as the founder of the place cannot take birth at the same place.

The so called Manuscript of Ramcharitmanas, which has been placed in Rajapur Tulsi Temple, Chitrakoot is not written by Tulsidas. The manuscript must have been written later on after the life time of Tulsidas.

There is no trace of ancestors of Tulsidas in Rajapur(Chitrakoot)

Tulsidas himself had found  Vikrampur, Rajapur, Duban ka Purwa near Chitrakoot so the question of his taking birth there does not arise.
