English: Depiction of Bhai Alam Singh 'Nachna' (died 1705) seated. There is a preserved letter (Hukamnama) of Mata Sahib Kaur mentioning Alam Singh being among the prominent Sikhs of Patna [source: 'Hukamname' by Dr Ganda, page 93]

Bhai Alam Singh Nachna was one of the feared warriors of Guru Gobind Singh and a close companion of the Guru who was martyred during the Battle of Chamkaur. It is said Guru sweetly called him 'nachna' because when he battled it looked like he was dancing.
