| Sardar Bhuma Singh was a [[Dhillon]] [[Jat]] of the village of Hung, near Badhni in present-day [[Moga district]], who won a name for himself in skirmishes with [[Nadir Shah]]'s troops in 1739.<ref>2001. ''The Sikh Commonwealth or Rise and Fall of Sikh Misls. Edition:2001.''</ref> Bhuma Singh's latent genius as an organiser and commander gave stimulus and growth to the Bhangi ''misl''. Historical records indicate he died in the Chhota ghallughara (holocaust) in 1746, while defending the Sikh community, from Afghan attacks. Bhuma Singh was childless so he adopted his nephew as his son, [[Hari Singh Dhillon]]. On Bhuma Singh's death in 1746, his nephew and adopted son, [[Hari Singh Dhillon]], assumed the leadership of the [[Bhangi Misl]]. The Bhangi Misl got its name from the addiction of Hashish(Bhang) of Bhuma Singh Dhillon.<ref name="Khushwant Singh">{{cite book|last=Singh|first=Khushwant|title=A History of the Sikhs: 1469-1838|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=MD9uAAAAMAAJ|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=978-0-19-567308-1|pages=127|date=2004-10-11}}</ref>
