Final answer:
Kirpa Ram led the delegation of 500 Kashmiri Brahmins seeking help from Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji, who was a leader of the Sikh faith. He sacrificed his life for their right to freely practice religion. Hinduism has evolved over time with the Vedas being the ancient texts brought by Aryans, not Bhakti.The correct option is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
The leader of the delegation of 500 Kashmiri Brahmins who came to Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji for help was named Kirpa Ram. These Brahmins sought the Guru’s assistance in the face of religious persecution they were experiencing during the reign of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb.
Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji, who was the ninth Sikh Guru, became a strong advocate for religious freedom and made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the right of Kashmiri Brahmins to practice their religion freely.
Guru Tegh Bahadur was a leader of the Sikh religion. Aurangzeb, the then Mughal Emperor, executed Guru Tegh Bahadur, which exemplifies the Guru's commitment to protecting religious liberty for all, not just Sikhs.
To address related knowledge, Hinduism doesn't have a sole founder but is a religion that evolved over thousands of years; the hymns brought to India by the Aryans are not called Bhakti (a devotional practice), but the Vedas, which are a collection of ancient religious texts.The correct option is A.
