Madho Das Bairagi, a 15-year-old ascetic, deserted his family and became known as Madho Das Bairagi. He built a monastery on the banks of the Godvara River in Nanded. It was in southern India in 1707 that Guru Gobind Singh accepted Bahadur Shah I's invitation to meet. In 1708, he paid a visit to Banda Singh Bahadur. Guru Gobind Singh baptised Banda and renamed him Gurbaksh Singh (as stated in mahan kosh, following the baptism ceremony), making him a disciple. Banda Singh Bahadur is the nickname given to him by the public. The Guru blessed him with five arrows and told him to use them in the fights to come. Assembling an army in Khanda in Sonipat, he spearheaded the resistance against the Mughal Empire. Samana, the provincial capital of the Mughals, was sacked by his forces in November 1709. Banda Singh Bahadur abolished the zamindari system after establishing his authority and Khalsa rule in Punjab and granted property rights to the landowners. In 1715–1716, the #Mughals seized Banda Singh and tortured him to death. In the Battle of Samana, he fought the Mughals and seized the Mughal city of Samana in 1709. (30 km southwest of Patiala). Money was printed in Samana. The Sikhs were able to stabilise their finances because to this treasury. Saraswati Nagar and Sadaura were shortly taken by the Sikhs.[2] (both places in present Yamunanagar district, Northern eastern Haryana). As a result, Punjab's Cis-Sutlej region, including Malerkotla and Nahan, was taken over by the Sikhs. When Banda Singh Bahadur was active, the Zamindari and Taluqdari system was halted, and farmers were given ownership of their own land, according to legend. All levels of government officials appeared to be addicted to bribery and extortion, and the regulatory and order-keeping system as a whole was undermined. As the Sikhs ruled all of Punjab east of Lahore, Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah feared that communication between Delhi and Lahore, Punjab's capital, would be hindered. After abandoning a plan to pacify insurgents in the state of Rajasthan, he set off for Punjab. Banda Singh Bahadur's death was the goal of the Imperial army as a whole. All of the generals were ordered to join the army of the Emperor. ' On August 29, 1710, an order was issued for all Hindus to remove their beards to guarantee there were no Sikh agents in the army barracks. An iron cage was placed around Banda Singh Bahadur, while all other Sikhs were chained up. 780 Sikh prisoners, 2,000 Sikh heads hung on spears, and 700 cartloads of murdered Sikh heads were paraded through Delhi with the Sikhs. They were held in the Delhi fort and forced to give up their faith in order to convert to Islam. No one in the prison was moved by the news. These non-converts were commanded to be put to death for their steadfast refusal. In public executions, every day 100 Sikh soldiers were taken out of the fort and killed. This went on for about a week and a half. Despite being ordered to do so, he refused to put his four-year-old son Ajai Singh in a coma by killing him. As a result, Ajai Singh was killed, his heart was ripped out, and stuffed down Banda Bahdur's gullet. However, he was martyred because of his steadfastness in the face of adversity. In 1716, after three months of imprisonment, Banda Singh had his eyes gouged out, his limbs amputated, and his skin taken, and then he was executed. #History_of_Sikhism #history_of_india #sikhism #pakistan #shrines #temples #lahore #india References 1.Janamsakhi Tradition - An Analytical Study - Book By Dr. Kirpal Singh 2.The Idea of History by R.G.
