From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Panth Parkash is the name of two well-known books on Sikh history.

  1. Panth Parkash of Rattan Singh Bhangu, the grandson of famous Sikh warrior, Sardar Mehtab Singh Mirankotia. It was written during 1809-1841. Panth Parkash is the only source of historical account of Banda Bahadur and the establishment of Sikh rule in the Punjab[1]. It is termed Prachin (old) being older of the two histories.
