His insurgency was, in many ways, a response to the atrocities committed by the Mughal rulers, and Banda Singh Bahadur\'s vision for governance aimed at establishing a just and egalitarian society. One of the key aspects of his advocacy for human rights was the abolition of the zamindari system, which had subjected the agrarian population to exploitation and abuse.

Ranjit Singh, recognizing the economic significance of his empire, implemented responsible fiscal policies and efficient financial management. One of the key elements contributing to financial stability was the establishment of a centralized revenue collection system. Ranjit Singh\'s government implemented a land revenue system that ensured a steady income for the state while also being considerate of the economic conditions of the agricultural communities. This efficient taxation system provided a stable financial base for the empire\'s governance and allowed for strategic investments in military, infrastructure, and administrative development.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Söhne; font-size: 12.0pt; color: #374151;\">Moreover, Ranjit Singh\'s emphasis on trade and commerce contributed to the financial stability of the Sikh Empire. The flourishing trade routes, especially those connecting Central Asia and India, brought economic prosperity to the region. The revenue generated from trade further supported the state\'s financial needs. Ranjit Singh\'s administration actively engaged in diplomatic and economic relations with neighboring powers, contributing to the economic stability of the empire.

The Khalsa, under Banda Singh Bahadur\'s leadership, aimed at challenging oppressive regimes and establishing a just socio-political order.
