--Reliable sources== I started this stub and am still looking and researching for further text dev and adition of reliable sources. However some sources have been added which arent so in my view/opinion, and need to be checked. Primarily, a ref to a book/monograph self published or commissioned by various parties, by a gentleman called the (late) Shafi Sabir. This isnt generally deemed a very reliavle work by most academics here. I have also left similar comments where its used elsewhere i.e. the Jadoon article talk page etc. I will try to replace info and refs with proper ones soon, but PLEASE i would request users not to add unreferenced or poorly refeernced info without checking up carefully.

Wrong and mislead story.
Bostan Khan was not born in talokar or he was directly or indirectly related to talokar Sheharyar tareen (talk) 06:35, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

I agree Bostan Khan wasn't born at Talokar and no Karam Khan was elected as Chief after him the Jagir was handled by Bani Begum widow of Sardar Muhammad Khan and latter it was passed on to Musharraf Muqadam Reference Hazara Gazetteer Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 07:45, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

Confusing names resulting in misleading article.
The Tareen family of "Bostan Khan" has relatives of similar names, hence sources are confused as they don't hold unique names.

Firstly, this article is listing the person as being executed by the British in 1825, when the neighbouring Punjab was only captured in 1849

The notable 'Bostan Khan' would be the one that resisted the Sikh Khalsa Regime at Hazara. RevolutionaryPatriot (talk) 14:01, 21 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello the article cites erroneous text I have given below the proper text, the facts are that Muhammad Tarin and Bostan Tarin etc mentioned in this article were involved in fighting against the Sikh Empire in Hazara (circa 1820s) quite some time before the British rule (started in 1849) -- the events narrated here are about 1825. I tried to correct in the article but a Bot keeps changing. Kindly fix, thanks. SyAJ1200 (talk)SyAJ1200 SyAJ1200 (talk) 05:58, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

‘’ (In 1825 ) Hari Singh Nalwa returned to the Hazara to quell the rebellion [against the Sikh rule]… The Sikh leaders …had now made up their minds what to do. Sardar Hari Singh, before leaving Lahore, had paid Rs 55,000 to the Maharajah [Ranjit Singh], for the person of Mohammad Khan Tarin, ; and he also caused Bostan Khan Tarin, Muhamad Tarin father of Painda Tarin of Tilokar, Jalal Khan the Dalazak chief, , the two principal Mashwani mailks, and Shaikha Jadun, to be suddenly seized in Hazara. The Tarin chief, Mohammad Khan, he caused to be poisoned with salt in the Kallar Fort … [and] under his orders, Maha Singh blew the others away from guns. ‘’ ---From the original edition of the Hazara District Gazetteer 1883-84, published by the Government of the Punjab, at Lahore, 1884. NP. New edition/reprint by Sang e Meel Publishers, Lahore 1990, also cites the above , page 26. It is to be please noted that the Sikh Khalsa ruled over most of Hazara area between 1820 and 1849. There were no British officers in Hazara at the time of the death of Mohammad Khan Tarin and his nephew/relative Bostan Tarin and others as mentioned above, it was the Sikh rule and Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa, the famous Sikh commander , was in overall charge of operations in the region at that time. Hazara only came under British rule in March 1849 onwards (after the Second Anglo-Sikh War). This erroneous note presently given in the Wikipedia article, falsely ascribes the capture and execution to the British officer Major James Abbott, who was Deputy Commissioner of Hazara circa 1849 to 1853. It is requested that this false note be removed and proper historical facts given, thanks.
