Bhai Randhir Singh Narangwal (7 July 1878 – 13 April 1961) was a Sikh leader who started the Gurdwara Sudhaar Movement and founded the Akhand Kirtani Jatha.^[1][2]

Randhir Singh was born as Basant Singh in Narangwal, Ludhiana district, Punjab on July 7, 1878 in a Grewal Jat Sikh family to father Natha Singh and mother Punjab Kaur.^[2] His father, Natha Singh, worked as a District Inspector of Schools and as a Judge in the High Court of the State of Nabha. His mother, Punjab Kaur, was a direct descendant in the seventh generation of Bhai Bhagtu, a distinguished Sikh of the congregation of Guru Arjan.^[2] He completed his schooling in Nabha and higher education from Government and Foreman Christian Colleges at Lahore. Singh wrote various books on Sikh theology, philosophy, and the Sikh way of life.

He was the leader of Sikhs who took part in a strong resistance movement, when in 1914 the British Government of India felled a portion of the Rakabganj Gurdwara wall under the beautification plan of the Government secretarial buildings in New Delhi area presently known as south block rakab gunj. Ultimately the government had to yield against the demand of the Sikhs and the wall was restored.

The whole movement was linked with freedom fighters of the ghadar movement 1914-15 and the Lahore Conspiracy Case II.^[3][4]

But Bhai Randhir Singh was charged in 1914 with waging war against the British Crown and had to undergo life-imprisonment from 1914 to 1931.^[3]

He died on Vaisakhi, April 13, 1961 and his cremation took place at the lake between Gujjrawal and Narangwal.^[4]
