New Delhi: The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee today hosted a Khalsa Sports show in Delhi to mark tri-century of birth anniversary of Sardar Jassa Singh Alhuwalia.

Sardar Jassa Singh Ahluwalia (1718-1783) was a prominent Sikh leader during the period of the Sikh Misls in 18th century. He was elected as the supreme military commander of the Dal Khalsa on March 29, 1748 – on Baisakhi. This appointment is considered to be one of the greatest honours ever bestowed, in the 18th century, to any Sikh.
