In the Kanpur massacre, Bibi Ji was accompanying the march with fervour and fearlessness. The Nirankaris’ bullets struck her once in the chest and twice in the legs but she did not step back. In her age of 50 years, she was martyred and gave the entire Sikh community renewed vitality. Bibi Ji had two sons and two daughters, of which one son and one daughter remained to be married.
