Singhpuria Misl, also known as the Faizulpuria Misl[1], was founded by the Sikh warrior Nawab Kapur Singh, who was born in 1697 and later became a prominent Dal Khalsa leader.[2] The misl took its original name from a village Faizullapur in Amritsar and then changed the name of the village to Singhpura, with the misl eventually following.[citation needed]
