Baba Dayal Das

Balak Singh

Satguru Ram Singh 

Correct Answer:

Satguru Ram Singh 

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 4  - Satguru Ram Singh

Satguru Ram Singh started the Kuka Movement.

The Kuka Movement, also known as the Namdhari Movement, was a religious and social reform movement that started in Punjab in the 1850s. It was founded by Satguru Ram Singh, who was a disciple of Guru Baba Balak Singh.

The Kuka Movement was based on the principles of Sikhism and emphasized the importance of simplicity, purity, and equality. The Kukas also believed in non-violence and social justice.

The Kuka Movement was a threat to British rule in India, and the British government suppressed it ruthlessly. In 1872, the British government arrested Satguru Ram Singh and exiled him to Burma. The British government also executed many Kukas.
