[QUOTE="Serjinder Singh, post: 183500, member: 13216"] Gyani Jarnail Singh “And to add to the Interesting points rasied by Chan pardesi Ji above...If I may add..the BANDA SINGH BAHADUR was also SABOTAGED by the so called TATT KHALSA LOBBY of Mughal Friendly Sikhs...IF the SIKHS had been UNITED..nothing could have stopped Banda Singh form establishing the Khalsa Raaj there and then.

Guru Gobind Singh ji refused such a deal and the battle was fought”. This episode in Sikh history was very tragic. Whereas Baba Banda Singh Bahadur and his loyal companions were being hunted by the Mughal armies, there were other former sikh leaders supported by Mata Sundari who defected to the Mughal rulers and were enjoying all the comforts and pampering. Baba Binod Singh Trehan, a descendent of Guru Angad Dev ji was the seniormost. He left Baba Banda and escaped from Gurdas Nangal with ten thousand Sikhs and was allowed to stay in comfort at Amritsar. He was pressurised by rulers to join the Mughal army to attack Baba Banda at Gurdas Nangal. He joined them but half way felt bad remembering tenth Guruji’s command to stay with Baba Banda. He tried to return back but he and thousands of Sikh in his group were massacred as told by Muslim historian. This is how a famous historian Hari Ram Gupta writes about this incident. “In October 1714, Binod Singh with 10,000 followers parted company from Banda Bahadur. But he was in two minds. He wanted to obey Mata Sundari’s command, and at the same time was opposed to fight against Banda. He remained at Amritsar. He was taken to Gurdas Nangal in the Mughal army to fight on their side. There he tried to retire without fighting. No sooner had Binod Singh started moving away at the head of his 10,000 men, than he was attacked by the imperialists on all sides. According to Khafi Khan three or four thousands of his men were massacred at once. Binod Singh lost his life.” (History of the Sikhs, Vol IV, page 8, Munshiram Manoharlal, 1982). Binod Singh is mentioned by the Nihangs as the first Jathedar of the Nihang sect. The fact is that, Binod Singh and his grandson Miri Singh both were given handsome grants and their Sikh soldiers were also rewarded handsomely. Each horseman was paid Rs. 30 a month, a footman, Rs 5, and a Sardar Rs. 5 daily. A body of 5000 Sikhs under Binod Singh’ son Kahan Singh and grandson Miri Singh took up service with Abdus Samad Khan, governor of Lahore. However, all this pampering was done for this under just one condition that the Sikh soldiers and their commanding officers would have to wear uniforms like those of the Mughal army. That meant that they could only wear blue uniforms. To this Kahan Singh and Miri Singh gladly agreed. From them on the Sikhs under these defector Sikhs began wearing blue dresses only. Guru Gobind Singh ji never adored blue dress. It was only when he had to escape from Machhiwara that a roll of white Khaddar cloth offered to Guruji by an old lady was quickly dyed during the night and Guru ji got a dress made to look like a Muslim Soofi Pir of Uch. If Guruji had always born a blue dress as most Nihangs want him to portrayed in pictures then there was no need to get a new blue dress to be prepared. All this was happening because of Mata Sundari’s arm twisting by the emperor to get Baba Banda excommunicated and helping the Mughals with the help of defector Sikhs. I have also always wondered as to why Mata Sundari chose to stay in Delhi under the very nose of the Mughal emperor whereas the ordinary Sikh were being hounde for their heads in Panjab.
