It was a political-religous movement. The Kukas were also referred Namdharis, who were a sect within Sikhism. They started as a group for religious purification in Sikhism under Ram Singh. The movement received a political overtone with the established aim of restoring Sikh rule in Punjab and ousting the foreign powers. The Kukas wore only white, hand-woven clothes and boycotted British education, products, and laws. In 1872, Ram Singh was captured and exiled to Rangoon and 65 Kukas were blown away from canons by the British.
