Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a popular Wikipedia page every day.

With 796,598 views on Sunday, 22 May 2022 our article of the day is The Great Gama.

Ghulam Mohammad Baksh Butt (22 May 1878 – 23 May 1960), commonly known as Rustam-e-Hind (Hindi-Urdu for Rostam of Hindostan) and by the ring name The Great Gama, was a pehlwani wrestler in British India and a strongman. In the early 20th century, he was an undefeated wrestling champion of the world. Born in the village of Jabbowal, Amritsar District in the Punjab Province of British India in 1878, Baksh was awarded a version of the World Heavyweight Championship on 15 October 1910. Undefeated in a career spanning more than 52 years, he is considered one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. After the partition of British India, into the Dominion of India and the Dominion of Pakistan in August 1947, Gama opted for Pakistan, where he died in Lahore on May 23, 1960.
