Gurbachan Singh was assassinated by fundamentalist Sikhs belonging to Akhand Kirtani Jatha, who believed that Sant Nirankari is gaining prominence day by day. After the death of Gurbachan, Baba Hardev took charge as the Satguru of the mission.
Baba Hardev is considered as an impeccable personality with pure thoughts. After the death of his father, Hardev managed everything in a calm manner and continued teaching moral lessons and spiritual path to his followers. The Sant Nirankari Mission is now a renowned movement, and it has more than 2000 centers in various nooks of the globe.
Baba Buta Singh initiated the Sant Nirankari Movement in the early years of the nineteenth century. The ideology believes in the importance of a living leader while conservative Sikhism trusted in the Sikh Scriptures as their ultimate guru.In 1929, Sant Nirankari movement was separated from main stream Sikhism.
