Answer:
Six Doabs were formed when Aurangzeb died in 1707, dividing the Punjab.
Explanation:
- In Jalandhar, there were 69 Mahals. The most significant towns in this Doab, which are located in the Hoshiarpur District, are Sham Churasi, Tanda, Mukerian, and Hoshiarpur.
- Guru Gobind Singh sent Banda Bahadur on a trip from the Deccan to the Punjab in 1708 to get revenge on those who had oppressed the Sikhs and killed his father and unborn children.
- Banda Bahadur undertook missions against the Mughal army using the Jalandhar Doab as his base of operations.
- He continued to focus his adventures on the Jalandhar Doab until 1711.
- The Sikhs in the Jalandhar Doab believed their day of deliverance had come as Sirhind was taken and Banda was spreading his activities throughout.
- They removed the Muslim officials and replaced them with Sikhs. They also sent a parvana to Shamas Khan, the Faujdar of the Jalandhar Doab, requesting that he enact some reforms and personally deliver his wealth to the Khalsa.
- When the Faujdar called for the Doab's Muslims to wage jihad against these infidels, some 100,000 of them gathered and marched toward Sultanpur, the Doab's capital, where roughly 75,000 Sikhs had gathered.
- Banda in the Gangetic Doab received an urgent call at this point, and he soon joined them.
- To Rahon, the Sikhs relocated. The Sikhs were under siege as the Muslims pursued them.
- But they managed to flee during the night, and when they saw Shamas Khan had returned to his capital the following morning, they unexpectedly assaulted the Muslims occupying the fort.
- On October 12, 1710, they defeated them in a brutal struggle and drove them out.
- The Sikhs quickly and easily took control of Jalandhar and Hoshiarpur as a result, and they are now in charge of the Jalandhar Doab.
