Explanation:

The Singh Sabha was another prominent Socio-Religious Movement in Punjab.The first Singh Sabha was founded at Amritsar and held its first meeting on 1st October, 1873. The first Singh Sabha was founded as a result of a series of events that included the unrest of the Sikh community caused by the Namdharis, the speeches of Shraddha Ram and also the Christian conversions.
The Singh Sabha was aimed at restoring Sikhism to its past purity and it published historical religious books, magazines and journals to propagate knowledge using Punjabi as language. As the popularity of the Singh Sabha Movement increased more Sabhas were established in different cities. A general Sabha was established at Amritsar in 1880 to provide a central organisation to all the Singh Sabhas and it was later rechristened as the Khalsa Diwan, Amritsar in April 1883.
The Singh Sabha Movement spoke for a rising educated elite and also called for changes in religion. The followers of the movement rejected any fundamental restructuring of authority within the community and realised the need to gain a command of Western knowledge if Sikhs were to compete successfully with Hindu and Muslim Punjabis.
