Recognizing the cultural and historical importance of Sikhism, Ranjit Singh took notable measures to safeguard and promote Sikh traditions. Central to this effort was the protection and embellishment of Sikh religious sites, particularly the revered Harmandir Sahib, also known as the Golden Temple in Amritsar.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Under Ranjit Singh\'s patronage, the Harmandir Sahib underwent substantial renovations, with the gold-plating of its upper floors being the most iconic. This initiative not only added to the architectural grandeur of the holiest Sikh shrine but also symbolized the flourishing of Sikh identity and heritage under the Sikh Empire. Ranjit Singh\'s contributions extended beyond physical structures; he supported the compilation and preservation of Sikh scriptures. The Maharaja commissioned the preparation of the \"Damdama Sahib Bir,\" a handwritten copy of the Guru Granth Sahib, which was lavishly adorned. This gesture not only emphasized the reverence for Sikh scripture but also underscored the importance of preserving and promoting Sikh religious heritage.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Furthermore, Ranjit Singh\'s administration played a crucial role in promoting Sikh arts and culture. The flourishing of Sikh artistic expression during this period is evident in the vibrant frescoes and intricate artworks adorning various Sikh shrines and monuments. The Maharaja\'s efforts to protect and enhance Sikh heritage were integral to reinforcing the distinct identity of the Sikh community, fostering a sense of pride and continuity with their rich cultural legacy.</p>'),(45981,1494,'_inner_page_description_description_1','field_656717641d5fc'),(45982,1494,'inner_page_description_title_2','Legacy of Baba Banda Singh Bahadur in Safeguarding Sikh Heritage:'),(45983,1494,'_inner_page_description_title_2','field_656717741d5fd'),(45984,1494,'inner_page_description_description_2','<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Baba Banda Singh Bahadur, while primarily recognized for his military resistance against the Mughal Empire, also played a role in safeguarding Sikh heritage, albeit in a different context. Banda Singh\'s establishment of Sikh rule in parts of Punjab marked a reclaiming of territories significant to Sikh history, such as Sirhind. The city held historical importance as the place where the younger sons of Guru Gobind Singh were martyred, and Banda Singh\'s victory there was a symbolic retrieval of Sikh heritage from the hands of oppressors.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Banda Singh\'s commitment to Sikh values also extended to the preservation of Sikh scriptures. During his rule, efforts were made to propagate the teachings of Sikh Gurus and ensure the availability of religious texts. While the circumstances of Banda Singh\'s time were marked by military campaigns and resistance, his governance reflected a reverence for Sikh heritage, emphasizing the importance of the Sikh way of life grounded in the teachings of the Gurus.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Additionally, Banda Singh Bahadur\'s legacy lies in the establishment of Sikh administrative structures that sought to protect and promote Sikh identity. His code of conduct for Sikhs, which emphasized ethical and moral principles, was not only a guide for personal conduct but also a framework for governance rooted in Sikh values. This commitment to Sikh principles contributed to the preservation of the distinct Sikh heritage, providing a foundation for future generations to build upon.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Both Maharaja Ranjit Singh and Baba Banda Singh Bahadur, in their respective ways, made significant contributions to the preservation of Sikh heritage.

There was no justice, lack of freedom and basic human rights were not known to citizens in if not every but various sectors of society.\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Maharaja Ranjit Singh spread the light among people with his noble governance and fair sovereignty.</li>\r\n 	<li>He broke down the tangles of differentiation, caste-based discrimination, and the chains of poverty, religion and many other social issues.</li>\r\n 	<li>He completely succeeded in addressing that old injustice and laws by making democratic representation in his era.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nLet us know how he engaged with each issue and helped everyone find true balance in their lives:\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Giving back lands to true owners.</h4>\r\nKnowing that many farmers didn\'t own the lands they worked on, the Maharaja did something important.\r\n\r\nHe gave the land back to the farmers who did the hard work. This fixed a big problem where only a few people owned most of the land.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Restoration of Abandoned lands.</h4>\r\nMaharaja Ranjit Singh started making neglected areas useful again, showing he cared about bringing life back to these forgotten places.\r\n\r\nRespect for women\r\n\r\nUnlike past kings, women were looked at and treated badly.\r\n\r\nHowever, only under Ranjit Singh’s rule, did the state become safe and secure for every female, girl child and woman.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Tax Abolishment in Ranjit Singh Sovereign.</h4>\r\nRanjit Singh put an end to the various redundant taxes that disturbed people unnecessarily.\r\n\r\nDespite this, he made strategic planning for finance management and tax collection in the fairest ways.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Removing Zamindars or middlemen</h4>\r\nThe Maharaja got rid of the middlemen, called Zamindars who were appointed by the old rulers.\r\n\r\nThis stopped these middlemen from taking advantage of the farmers and taking away their rights to the land.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Transparent Sessions in Ranjit Singh Castle</h4>\r\nUnlike old rulers, Maharaja Ranjit Singh was open and fair in how he governed.\r\n\r\nHe made sure everyone could see and understand what decisions were being made.\r\n\r\nThis brought fairness to the system, and people could trust that the choices were for everyone\'s good.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Respect for all religions</h4>\r\nNo previous king was seen giving this much freedom to each individual to follow his desired religion.\r\n\r\nIt washed out various unnecessary conditions in society related to religion.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4><strong>C</strong>omplete freedom of education and language</h4>\r\nNo limit was there on language or education in Punjab rule under Ranjit Singh.\r\n\r\nPeople were open to learning different subjects and languages.
