GURU TEGH BAHADUR, HIND KI CHADAR

Guru Tegh Bahadur is known as ( Guru Tegh Bahadur- Hind ki Chadar ) means protector of hindus.In 1675 Aurangzeb, the most cruel mughal emperor caused the Matyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur. He had gone to Aurangzeb on behalf of kashmiri pandits, who requested him to plead against their forceful conversion. Aurangzeb asked Guru Tegh Bahadur to convert and he defied him, because he refused to convert to Islam. According to Khushwant Singh, when Guru Tegh Bahadur was summoned to Delhi, he went as a protector of hindus and encouraged them to stand against the increasing oppression of Mughals. He embraced Matyrdom in 1675. Guru Tegh Bahadur undertook the supreme sacrifice for the protection of the most fundamental of human rights- the right of the person to freely practice his or her reigion without interference or hindrance.This is why, he is called, HIND KI CHADAR, protector of Hindus.

Today, we need such kind of heroes, who can sacrifice everything for the majority of the population. Reason being, Hindus themselves are weak and divided in thousands of castes and they have become immunne to be ruled by foreignors. First by muslim sultans, emperors, then by British and now by Politicians.
