Abstract
Sikh community of the state was very less in number and existence and was very tiny in occurrence and from the very existence of this community, it was minority community. Like Muslims they too were backward and economically marginalized. Due to the modern education and after emergence of enough number of socio-religious reform movements within the other communities, the Sikh community also got influenced by this social revolution the leaders or activists of this community also wanted to do something good for their subjects. As the social sector of the state got changed due to modernization and western education like in parts of the India at that time, the Sikh members also were deeply concerned about it, because they too were lacking education and employment in government management and their main occupation was agriculture and very minor were employed in the state services. The socio-religious reform movement’s among Sikh community were thus at aiming the Sikh community and making them as par with the other societies of the state.
