The Karorsinghia Misal was brought into prominence by Baghel Singh (d. 1802). He had a brilliant career of military achievements to his credit. In 1783, he entered Delhi and unfurled the Khalsa Nishan on the Red Fort. He built 7 gurdwaras consecrating the places connected with the Sikh Gurus in the city of Delhi as part of the settlement with the Mughal emperor Shah Alam II.
“When the Sikhs entered Khurja, the people ran away. The rich men of the town were tied to pillars and compelled to disclose their hidden treasures. After the plunder Baghel Singh and Jassa Singh spread a cloth on the ground and asked the Sikh chiefs to give away one tenth of their booty, in cash, for the service of the Guru. An amount of one lakh rupees was collected and the money sent to the Harmandir Sahib at Amritsar.”
