martyrdom. His father, Sardar Charan Singh moved from village Firookaa
Dist. Sargodha to Kanpur after Partition. Sardar Charan Singh was a
very well known cloth dealer in the city, and also did much anonymous
service for the Gurdvara. The entire family was very well liked and had
deep devotion for the Guru. The Shaheed’s grandfather, Sardar Sundar
Singh took part in the Kirpan Agitation against the British and then
also participted in the Guru Kaa Bagh Morcha, where he cheerfully
accepted the police’s blows.

Singh Bajaj’s daughter, Jasbeer Kaur, and had a one and a half-year-old
child.

Narkdharis. When the Sikh Sangat scattered at 10AM when the bullets
began to fly, Bhai Manmohan Singh also escaped. When he returned to the

and struck him in the back, head and chest, thus martyring him.
