The 20th century would see the bursting forth of a new movement called The Singh Sabha which would bring new life to the Sikhs and revive their Religion. The new movement had planted its roots even as the Nirankari and Namdhari movements of 19th Century, with their restricted scope and schismatic character, had began to lose 'steam' after failing to stir the Sikh people.

  • The 20th century would see the bursting forth of a new movement called The Singh Sabha which would bring new life to the Sikhs and revive their Religion. The new movement had planted its roots even as the Nirankari and Namdhari movements of 19th Century, with their restricted scope and schismatic character, had began to lose 'steam' after failing to stir the Sikh people. To quote Sardar Harbans Singh in his, The heritage of the Sikhs, "The Singh Sabha which followed them had a much deeper impact. It influenced the entire Sikh Community and reoriented its outlook and spirit. Since the days of the Gurus nothing so vital had transpired to fertilize the consciousness of the Sikhs. The Singh Sabha by leavening the intellectual and cultural processes brought a new dimension to the inner life of the community and enlarged its heritage. Starting in the seventies of the last century, it marked a turning-point in Sikh history. It touched Sikhism to its very roots, and made it a living force once again. The stimulus it provided has shaped the Sikhs' attitude and aspiration over the past one hundred years."
