Bhai Ganga Singh (d.1921) is one of the Saka Nankana Sahib martyrs . He was the son of Bhai Hukam Singh and Mata Nand Kaur, a peasant couple of village Nizampur, in Amritsar. The family shifted westward to Chakk No. 38 Nizampur Deva Singhvala, in a newly colonized district. As Jathedar Lachhman Singh's Jatha bound for Nankana Sahib was passing by his village on 19 February 1921, Bhai Ganga Singh along with his brother, Bhai Chanda Singh, joined it. He fell a martyr the following morning in Gurdwara Janam Asthan.
