Answer:

In the eighteenth century, the Sikhs organized themselves into a number of bands called jathas, and later, misls. Their combined forces were known as the grand army (dal khalsa). The entire body used to meet at Amritsar during the time of Baisakhi and Diwali to take collective decisions known as “resolutions of the Guru (gurmatas)”. A system called rakhi was introduced to offer protection to cultivators on the payment of a tax of 20 percent of the produce. Guru Gobind Singh created the khalsa that helped Sikhs defeat the Mughal governors first, and then Ahmad Shah Abdali who had seized the rich province of the Punjab and the Sarkar of Sirhind from the Mughals. The Khalsa declared their sovereign rule by striking their own coin in 1765.
