  1. Which Sikh Guru called himself the ‘Sachcha Badshah’?
    1. Guru Gobind Singh
    2. Guru Hargovind
    3. Guru Tegh Bahadur
    4. Guru Arjan Dev
Correct Option: C

Guru Tegh Bahadur became the 9th Guru of Sikhs on 20 March 1665, following in the footsteps of His Grand-Nephew, Guru Har Krishan Sahib. Tegh Bahadur was given the title Bahadur by his father Guru Hargobind (sixth Guru of the Sikhs) as he displayed such bravery with the sword in battle. Later upon return to Eastern Punjab settling down at Anandpur his followers began to refer to him as the “Sacha Badshah” (True King). He was executed on the orders of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in Delhi.
