Question

How did the Sikhs become target of Mughal hatred during Jahangir's reign?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Mughal-Sikh Wars were a series of campaigns between Mughal and Sikh armies, taking place in present-day Pakistan and the India between the 16th and 18th centuries.The tenth and the last guru of Sikhs Guru Gobind Singh organised themselves in jathas, who would see their first battle in 1621. After several decades, small Sikh states known as misls combined to form the Sikh Confederacy in 1716, that jointly fought against Mughal power. In 1735, the jathas would be combined into a single army, the Dal Khalsa. Even though the Mughal Army had more military power, the Sikhs were overall successful in getting rid of the Mughals from the Punjab. The Sikh also severely weakened the Mughals during the first half of the 18th century. By the 1750s, the neighbouring northwestern Islamic Durrani Empire and the southern Hindu Maratha Empire had all but destroyed the weakened Mughal Empire, which retained a small territory around Delhi.
