The Singhpuria or Fiazullapuria Misal was founded by the venerable Sikh general Nawab Kapur Singh (1697-1753). He rallied the Sikhs to fearlessly standup to the oppressive rule of the Mughals and later challenged the chain of Afghan invasions under Nadir Shah and Ahmad Shah Abdali. A leader with vision he realized that the community needed solidarity and union. In 1747, he successfully merged the 65 independent fighting Sikh jathas(groups) into 12 misals (confederacies) under the unified Dal Khalsa. “Kapur Singh was very generous and magnanimous and an embodiment of humility and humanity” Ahmad Shah Batalia in “Twarikh-i-Hind (1824)
