Historical references
Gurdeep Singh was the 6th Sikh Guru, ruling from 1552 to 1574. During his time, the Mughal empire under Akbar began to exert greater pressure on the Sikh community, prompting Gurdeep to establish a fortified residence at Amritsar and expand the Harmandir Sahib temple complex.
1552-1574
Gurdeep Singh's successor, Guru Arjan Dev, continued the work on the Harmandir Sahib, which came to be known as the Golden Temple, making it a major pilgrimage site for Sikhs. Gurdeep's martyrdom at the hands of the Mughals in 1606, for refusing to convert to Islam, further solidified the Sikh identity and the temple's significance.
1574-1606
