The Battle of Chamkaur Sahib. An unparalleled stand of 40 Sikhs against enemy forces numbering in lakhs.

Today, we reverently remember the Shaheedi of the elder sons of Sahib Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, Sahibzada Ajit Singh Ji (17 years) and Sahibzada Jujhar Singh Ji (13 years), whose lives remain a timeless testament to faith, courage and righteousness.
After months of siege at Anandpur Sahib, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, along with Mata Gujri Ji, the Sahibzade and the devoted Sikhs, chose to leave the sacred city following assurances of safe passage. These assurances were soon treacherously broken. As the Mughal forces attacked from behind and while crossing the Sarsa River, the Guru Sahib’s family became separated into three groups. Guru Gobind Singh Ji, accompanied by the two elder Sahibzade and forty devoted Sikhs, eventually reached Chamkaur Sahib.
Guru Sahib, along with the Sikhs, took control of the Kachi Garhi, a mud fortress built on a small hill. The fortress was soon completely surrounded by the Mughal forces, vastly outnumbering them. Despite the overwhelming odds, Guru Gobind Singh Ji steadfastly upheld the principles of Dharma and the fight against injustice.
It was strategically decided that, the next day, groups of five Sikhs would sally forth to confront the enemy. Each group fought with extraordinary valour, inflicting significant damage upon the Mughal forces.
Sahibzada Ajit Singh Ji, at the age of 17, humbly sought permission from Guru Sahib to join the battlefield. With unwavering faith and extraordinary courage, Babaji fought fearlessly, inflicting significant damage upon the Mughal forces and attained Shaheedi, leaving behind an enduring legacy of valour.
Following Baba Ajit Singh Ji, Baba Jujhar Singh Ji, only 13 years old, also requested permission to enter the battle. Guided by the ideals of the Khalsa, Babaji displayed extraordinary courage, striking down large numbers of enemies, and embraced Shaheedi, exemplifying supreme devotion to Dharam and righteousness.
Throughout the battle, Guru Gobind Singh Ji continued to shower arrows upon the enemy forces and after every Shaheedi, the Guru Sahib Ji inspired the Sikhs with Jaikara, proclaiming the victory of the Khalsa and affirming that spiritual triumph transcends physical loss.
The Shaheedi of Sahibzada Ajit Singh Ji and Sahibzada Jujhar Singh Ji remains a timeless lesson for humanity, demonstrating that true strength lies in faith, moral courage and unwavering devotion to truth.

Where Values Grow into Lives of Purpose
As Hon’ble Dr. Davinder Singh Ji continues the USA and Canada Awareness Campaign, seeking the blessings of the revered Sadh Sangat across North America, the journey reached Canada with a spirit of seva, guidance, and value-based living.
This Sangat Darshan became especially heartfelt with the gracious hosting by Baljeet Kaur Ji, a distinguished alumna from the 2009 batch of Akal Academy Baru Sahib who spent 7 formative years at the Academy from Grades 6 to 12. She later completed her B.Tech from Eternal University, Baru Sahib, continuing her educational journey within the same value-driven ecosystem.
Carrying forward this legacy, the 2nd generation of her family is also studying and being nurtured at Akal Academy Baru Sahib, a reflection of deep-rooted faith in value-based education.
The gathering became even more meaningful as family members from different places came together to seek blessings from Hon’ble Dr. Davinder Singh Ji. The occasion was graced with Ardas, and the warmth of the moment was further reflected when Hon'ble Dr. Davinder Singh Ji spent time with the infants of the family, Ishroop Kaur & Ishveer Singh, filling the atmosphere with joy and affection.
This was followed by a deep and meaningful discussion on pressing societal concerns such as drug abuse, religious conversion, gaps in rural education and low levels of women’s empowerment. The interaction helped create awareness and brought the Sangat together with a shared purpose to rebuild Punjab across different sections of society.
Through initiatives such as value-based rural education, drug de-addiction and rehabilitation efforts, support for underprivileged Sikhs, and programs like AIRWE (Akal Institute of Rural Women Empowerment), The Kalgidhar Trust and Akal Academy continue to offer holistic, Gurmat-guided solutions.
We warmly invite the Sadh Sangat and alumni to come together and become an essential part of this collective movement to rebuild Punjab through education, values, and seva.

A Journey Back to the Roots | Alumni Reflections from Chicago
Previous
Next
As the USA Sangat Darshan and Awareness Campaign of Hon’ble Dr. Davinder Singh Ji reaches Chicago, it became a deeply moving moment when alumni of Akal Academy Baru Sahib reconnected with their alma mater and mentor.
Alumnus Lakhwinder Singh graciously hosted a special gathering at his residence, welcoming Hon’ble Dr. Davinder Singh Ji with warmth and reverence. Another alumnus, Manraj Singh, also joined to seek blessings, making the occasion truly nostalgic and meaningful.
Coming from a small village in Punjab, Lakhwinder Singh once carried the fear of competing with city students, especially due to language barriers. However, his 11 years at Akal Academy Baru Sahib transformed that fear into confidence. The Academy’s disciplined environment, beginning each day with Nitnem, early routines, and value-based, quality education, helped him build strong communication skills, self-belief and character. Today, those foundations reflect in his professional journey as a Process Engineering Manager at HYDAC Group.
Another proud alumnus, Manraj Singh, who studied at the Academy for 10 years (1996–2006), shared how his parents chose Akal Academy in the absence of quality schools in their village. He credits his professional success to the strong educational and moral foundation laid during his formative years at Akal Academy Baru Sahib.
Both alumni joined the Akal Academy Baru Sahib at a young age and, over the years, experienced a remarkable transformation. Once, village children were hesitant about language and exposure; they emerged as confident individuals, a reflection of how Akal Academy’s movement bridges the rural–urban gap, nurtures discipline, and instils the belief that no child is lesser than another.
These moments stand as living examples of how value-based education shapes lives across generations.
As we move towards 40 Years of Education (1986–2026), such alumni reflections reaffirm the enduring impact of Akal Academy’s mission, empowering rural roots to build global leaders.
