A Devoted Sikh Martyr (D. 1737). Received the vows of the Khalsa at the hands of Guru Gobind Singh. He was among the five Sikhs sent along with Bhai Mani Singh to Amritsar in 1700 to manage the shrines there. In the days of severe persecution by the Mughal authority, Bhai Gulzar Singh was skinned to death at Lahore at the same time as Bhai Mani Singh was hacked to pieces (1737). A samadh or memorial shrine in his honour was raised in Lahore near that of the latter.
