Bandi Chhor Day History
When Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji was imprisoned in Gwalior Fort, Jahangir sent a messenger to escort the Guru to Delhi. Gurudev refused to leave the fort unless the 52 kings detained in the fort were also released. At first, Jahangir did not agree since they were political prisoners and were detained for either committing a default in revenue payment or for involvement in the rebellion of Prince Khurram. But when his courtier Wazir Khan insisted, the emperor agreed and the Guru left the fort along with all the fifty-two prisoners who were awaiting their death.
These men rejoiced and celebrated their new freedom. They threw themselves at the Guru's feet and begged him to make them his disciples. They implored the Guru to do whatever he wanted with their lives since he was responsible for giving them a new life. The Guru welcomed all the men into his group and turned them into soldiers. The portion of the Gwalior fort where the Guru dwelt got the name Bandi-Chhor Sthan (place of prisoners' release).
