Remembering the great Guru for his valor and sacrifice ❤️.
Proud of our Khalsa Sikh Panth who have protected the land from enemies.
THE SECOND BATTLE OF CHAMKAUR (1704)
To understand what transpired in this great battle read this very touching account of what actually happened.
How The Guru and his children fought against evil Mughals.
Read on.
The Guru alongwith his two sons, Prince Ajit Singh, and Prince Jujhar Singh and a hundred men who had survived the imperial army attack took the direction of Ropar.
Their entourage was attacked by surrounding Pathans, their traditional foe.
The Sikhs fought with valour and inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy. However, the number of the followers was reduced to forty by the time they were able to make their way to Chamkaur.
Here they sought refuge in a fortified mud mansion that was strategically built on a high mound and was surrounded by open plains. The mansion could well serve as a fort.
