📖 Description
Abdali, Sikh Te Wadda Ghallughara is a meticulously researched Punjabi historical work by Swaran Singh (Chuslewarh) examining one of the darkest and most significant chapters in Sikh history—the Wadda Ghallughara (Greater Holocaust of 1762) carried out during the invasions of Ahmad Shah Abdali (Durrani).
The book explores the political, military and social circumstances that led to the tragic events of February 1762, when thousands of Sikhs, including women, children and elderly civilians, were attacked during their migration. Drawing upon historical records, contemporary accounts and Sikh sources, the author presents a detailed analysis of Abdali's campaigns, the remarkable resilience of the Sikh community and the eventual resurgence of the Sikh Misls.
Richly illustrated with historical photographs, paintings and maps, this volume examines key personalities including Ahmad Shah Abdali, Jassa Singh Ahluwalia, Baba Ala Singh, Charat Singh Shukarchakkia and other influential Sikh leaders who shaped eighteenth-century Punjab.
An invaluable reference for students, researchers, historians and readers interested in Sikh heritage, eighteenth-century Punjab, military history and the rise of the Sikh Confederacy.
