Explores one of the most crucial factors leading to the non-Islamic paradigm in the political and social fabric of Punjab—the emergence of a Sikh ‘space’ from the time of advent of the gurus.
This book examines the Punjab state under Maharaja Ranjit Singh and his rightful domination over the majority Muslim subjects.
The conversion of Punjabis both from Hindu and Muslim backgrounds to Sikhism began to create problems for the Muslim elites in Punjab, even though Muslim and Sikh leaderships engaged with each other. The book traces how Ranjit Singh derived legitimacy from Muslim subjects in five crucial areas of governance: religion, justice, army, agrarian policy and the formation of new Muslim elites.
He completed his Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees with distinctions from the School of Languages, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. He has also completed a programme in International Mediation and Conflict Resolution from Erasmus University, Rotterdam, Holland.
He has co-authored a well-acclaimed book on Maharaja Ranjit Singh along with researched books on Golden Temple, Anandpur Sahib and Hemkunt Sahib. He has been involved as a project advisor (India) for the United Nations University Leadership Academy, Amman. He has presented papers internationally on the themes of History, Interfaith and Conflict Resolution, and taught South Asian History at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, and Punjabi language and Heritage at Simon Fraser University, both located in Metro Vancouver.
