Sirhind the town located in Punjab India, which was the unfortunate witness to the the martyrdom of the two younger sons or chotta sahibzada of Guru Gobind Singh in 1704. Wazir Khan, its Subadar (Governor) at the time had vowed to finish off the Sikhs, 'root and branch', after they had left Anandpur Sahib.
Though the Sikhs had been given a promise of safe passage to Punjab, a promise written in the flyleaf of their holy book, the Qur'an which included the seal of the Emperor Aurangzeb. The Sikhs who were half starved and weakened by the many months that the the Mughals and Hindu hill chieftains had laid siege to Anandpur they put up a spirited defense at the Sarsa, killing many of their attackers. At Chamkaur thousands of attackers failed to capture Guru Gobind Singh no doubt making those who hoped to kill him including Wazir Khan furious.
The frustrated Wazir Khan must have been delighted when the two younger sons of Guru Gobind Singh, 9 year old Baba Zorawar Singh and and 6 year old Baba Fateh Singh along with their paternal grandmother Mata Gujri ji fell into his custody, after being betrayed by a trusted former member of the Guru's household. They had been separated from the Guru and his Sikhs, in the confused battle while crossing the rain swollen frigid waters of the Sarsa.
After they refused the Subedar's offers of power and wealth, if only they would accept Islam, Wazir Khan ordered his men to brick them into a wall while still alive, thinking that the children would surely choose Islam over such a gruesome death, but even this failed to change the resolve of the Guru's two youngest sons. When even the bricks enclosing the young Princes tumbled to the ground Wazir Khan ordered their execution.
