Battle of Chamkaur (1704)
The Battle of Chamkaur, also known as Battle of Chamkaur Sahib, was fought between the Khalsa led by Gobind Singh and the Mughal forces led by Wazir Khan. Gobind Singh makes a reference to this battle in his victory letter Zafarnama.
==Preamble to the battle==
After Gobind Singh left Anandpur on the night of December 5 and 6, 1704, they had crossed the Sarsa river and stopped in Chamkaur. They asked permission of the city chief for shelter to rest for the night in their ''garhi'' or haveli. The older brother thought giving him shelter would be dangerous so he refused. But the younger brother gave permission to let them stay there for the night.
Despite giving assurance of safe conduct, the Mughals soldiers were looking for Guru Gobind Singh, to take his head as a trophy. After learning that the party of Sikhs had taken shelter in the haveli, they laid siege upon it.〔 The actual battle is said to have taken place outside the haveli where the Guru was resting.〔 Negotiations broke down and the Sikh soldiers chose to engage the overwhelming Mughal forces, thus allowing their Guru to escape. A ''gurmatta'' or consensus amongst the Sikhs compelled Gobind Singh to obey the will of the majority and escape by cover of night. It is alleged that the Sikh warriors were able to engage the Mughal troops in majority due to training in the Sikh martial art of ''Shastarvidya''. All the Sikhs guarding the Guru were killed in the battle.
