The Battle of Sirhind, fought on February 26, 1764, stands as a testament to the valor and strategic brilliance of the Sikh Misls under Jassa Singh Ahluwalia’s leadership. Their victory over the Mughal forces not only marked a significant military triumph but also heralded the rise of the Sikh Empire, forever altering the political landscape of the region. This historic victory symbolized the decline of Mughal authority and the emergence of Sikh sovereignty, paving the way for Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s eventual unification of the Sikh Misls into a formidable empire.
