TOP-8 OLDEST PERSONS IN INDIA .

According to indian scriptures there were many peoples in india ,who lived thousands of years . but according to some last years we have some of proof of peoples who lived more than 100 years. 

1. Mahashta Murasi, 179 years old 

A man in Varanasi, India, has made headlines around the world after claiming that he is 179 years old. Mahashta Murasi claims that he was born on June 6, 1835 and has the documents to prove it. If proved true, he would become the world's oldest known living person. According to Murasi, he worked in India as a shoemaker till 1957. He retired at the age of 122.

"Maybe the angel of death has forgotten me," he said. "I've lived for so long I've even seen the death of my grandchildrens' grandchildren."

Murasi, who has no records of health problems, said that his last doctor died in 1971. He has been entered into the Guinness World Book of Records as the oldest man in Indian history, Deccanchronicle noted.

2. Swami Sivananda, 124 years old

Swami Sivananda is an Indian monk whose passport, when checked at the Abu Dhabi airport, revealed him to be 124 years old.

Sivananda was born on August 8th in the year 1896, as recorded in his passport. This man here has been among the very few centenarians who have lived through the last three centuries.

He had lost both his parents quite early in life and had been given away to a spiritual guru by his relatives. Sivananda accompanied his guru for a tour of India which concluded with them settling down in the holy city of Varanasi. There he grew up amidst extreme poverty and eventually adopted the life of a disciplined celibate.

The oldest man according to the last update of the Guinness Book is a Japanese man named Jiroemon Kimura, who passed away in June 2013 at the age of 116 years. Currently, Melbourne’s Nessie Kluckhenn, who turned 110 on April 1, is known to be the oldest living man in the world.

Sivananda, who was initially reluctant of all the publicity, did apply to the Guinness Book of World Records after being persuaded by his followers. However, the only record of his birth seems to be an extremely obsolete temple registry from back in the nineteenth century, NewsYahoo noted.
