History of the Ramgarhia Misl

The founder of the group that would eventually become the Ramgarhia Misl was Khushal Singh of Guga village near Amritsar. Khushal Singh was succeeded by, Nand Singh Sanghania who belonged to village Sanghani near Amritsar. After his death he was succeeded by a much more enterprising and valiant man, Jassa Singh Ramgarhia (1723-1803), under whose stewardship the band assumed prominance and the name of the Misl. The name Ramgarhia was adopted after winning a major battle near the village of Ramghar.
Jassa Singh's grandfather was Hardas Singh, who had been a resident of Suringh, which is situated about nineteen miles east of Khem Karan, in the present district of Amritsar. Hardas Singh was initiated into the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh Ji, from whose hands he took Pahul (the Sikh baptismal oath). He was later to fight in battles at Guru Ji’s side. After the death of the Guru, he joined the forces of Banda Bahadur and took part in almost every battle under his flag against the Mughal Empire. In 1716, he died in a skirmish. After his death his son, Sardar Bhagwan Singh became the head of the family. and with 200 followers entered the Imperial Mughal forces under the Governor of Lahore. Owing to his ability he rose to be a distinguished officer. He died fighting for his master in 1739 at Lahore, when Nadir Shah invaded India and the Governor resisted him ineffectually. Bhagwan Singh's eldest son Jassa Singh, now became the head of the family. He was appointed a Risaldar by the Governor of Lahore, and the following villages were given to him: Jagir Valla, Verka, Sultanwind, Tung and Chabba (all of these are now in the Amritsar district). The Sehmi Clan of Nawan Pind in Valla/ Verka today hold the spirit of Jassa Singh's endeavours. On the death of Khan Bahadur, the Governor of Lahore, in 1746, Baron Jassa Singh, together with his followers, joined his Sikh brethren at Amritsar.
