The origin of the village's name is shrouded in myth. One claims that Maharaja Ranjit Singh gave the village to a servant named Tara. Another traces the name to the Punjabi word "talawa", the act of tying thread to a kite, since the road to the village is reminiscent of a "talawa".

History

It is noted as the birthplace of three influential Punjabis.

Bhagat Singh Thind

Bhagat Singh Thind, PhD, (3 October 1892 – 15 September 1967) was an Indian-American Sikh writer and lecturer on spirituality who initiated an important legal battle over the rights of Indians to obtain U.S. citizenship: United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind.

United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind, 261 U.S. 204 (1923), was a case in which the United States Supreme Court unanimously decided that Bhagat Singh Thind, an Indian Sikh man, was ineligible for naturalization. In 1923, Thind filed for United States citizenship under the Naturalization Act of 1906 which allowed white persons and persons of African descent to naturalize. He did not challenge the constitutionality of the racial restrictions. Instead, he attempted to have Indians classified as "white."

Thind argued that as a high-caste Indian he was "Aryan" and therefore "Caucasian". The Court found that "the Aryan theory, as a racial basis, seems to be discredited by most, if not all, modern writers on the subject of ethnology," and noted that "the Caucasic division of the human family is 'in point of fact the most debatable field in the whole range of anthropological studies.'"

Dr. Thind was also the first Sikh to serve in the U.S. Army (a few months before the end of World War I), and successfully fought for the right to wear the turban while in uniform.

Jagat Singh Thind

Jagat Singh Thind[8], younger brother of Bhagat Singh Thind, was among the 376 passengers (340 Sikhs, 24 Muslims, and 12 Hindus, all British subjects) of the ship Komagata Maru. Arriving in Burrard Inlet, Vancouver, on 23 May 1914, they hoped to immigrate to a better life and educational system. However, due to the racist immigration policy of the Dominion of Canada at that time, they were denied entry and the ship was forced to leave on 23 July 1914. Returning to India, a number of passengers were killed in an incident with police. (See Komagata Maru incident.)

On 23 May 1914, Dr. Bhagat Singh Thind's youngest brother, Jagat Singh Thind, was amongst the 376 passengers (340 Sikhs, 24 Muslims, and 12 Hindus) who arrived in Burrard Inlet, Vancouver from the Indian sub-continent in hopes for a better life and better educational system. However, due to the racist immigration policy of the Dominion of Canada, the ship was forced to leave on 23 July 1914.

On the voyage back to India many on board endured hardships by the hands of the British. Thus inciting a riot, which resulted in many Indians being abused, jailed, or killed. This riot incident is known as "Budge Budge Riot". Fortunately Jagat eventually made his way back to his village Taragarh Talawa.

Dalbir Singh Jhand known as Punjabi writer Dalbir Chetan[9][10] was a famous Punjabi short-story writer, the author of four books of short stories titled: Rishteyian De Aar Paar, Raat Baraate, Khara Badal and Mehndi Bazaar[10].
