Rama Kamath (died 1720) was a Mumbai (Bombay)-based businessman and philanthropist. The records of his life are scanty. He was connected with the command of Indian troops under the British and had some connections with Kanhoji Angre. He paid for the reconstruction of the Walkeshwar Temple in 1715 and also donated a temple on Parsi Bazaar Street. He was clearly friendly with the British, since he is on record as one of the honoured guests at the inauguration of St. Thomas' Cathedral on Christmas Day, 1718. Unfortunately Charles Boone found a piece of paper that said that Kamath was working with Boones archenemy-Kanhoji Angre. The paper was just a forgery by one of Kamaths jealous friends but Boone was so angry that he tortured and killed Kamath and then just one day later it was found out that Kamath never helped Angre and Boone paid money to Kamaths family hoping for forgiveness. ==References== *(Rama Kamath ) City of Gold:The Biography of Bombay .Temple Smith Publishers.London.Author Gillian Tindall.(Pgs 55,89,184.)ISBN 0-85117-240-7.First Published 1982. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rama Kamath」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
