PAÑJĀB SIṄGH, BHĀĪ (1871-1921), one of the Nankāṇā Sāhib martyrs, was the son of Bhāī Pahū Siṅgh and Māī Bhān Kaur of Nizāmpur village, in Amritsar district. The family migrated to Nizāmpur Devā Siṅghvālā in Sheikhūpurā district (now in Pakistan). Bhāī Pañjāb Siṅgh had a younger brother, Naraiṇ Siṅgh by name. Both were hardworking husbandmen, deeply religious. On 19 February 1921, Naraiṇ Siṅgh had left home to join the corps of volunteers to have the holy shrines at Nankāṇā Sāhib liberated. When Pañjāb Siṅgh learnt this he ran after him to offer himself as a volunteer. Both brothers fell martyrs in the indiscriminate firing which greeted them upon arrival at Gurdwārā Janam Asthān, Srī Nankāṇā Sāhib, on the morning of 20 February 1921.
