The Guru who founded the ‘Khalsa’ was:

Har Rai
Har Kishan
Teg Bahadur
Govind Singh

The correct answer is (d). Gobind Singh founded the Khalsa in 1699. The Khalsa is a community of Sikhs who have taken the five Ks, which are articles of faith that identify them as Sikhs. The five Ks are:

  • Kesh: uncut hair
  • Kangha: a wooden comb
  • Kara: a steel bracelet
  • Kachera: cotton shorts
  • Kirpan: a sword

The Khalsa was founded in response to the persecution of Sikhs by the Mughal Empire. Gobind Singh believed that the Khalsa would be a force for good in the world and would help to protect the Sikh faith.

Har Rai (a) was the seventh Sikh Guru. He was a peaceful and spiritual leader who focused on spreading the message of Sikhism.
