Ad-Dharmi
The Ad-Dharmi is a Dalit sect in the state of Punjab, in India. Ad-Dharmis comprise 11.48% of the total of lower status communities in Punjab. Origin
The Ad-Dharm movement was started in the 1920s with the aim of establishing a distinct religious identity, similar to the Adi Dravida movement in Tamil Nadu. The founders of the Ad-Dharm Movement were Mangu Ram Mugowalia (a founding member of the Ghadar Party), Master Gurbanta Singh (a senior Congress leader), B. L. Gherra, and Pandit Hari Ram (Pandori Bibi), who served as the organization's secretary. The movement projected Guru Ravidas, the 14th century Bhakti Movement saint, as their spiritual guru and adopted a sacred book called Ad Parkash for their separate ritual traditions. The Ad-Dharmi Dalits unified as a faith in 1925 during British rule in India. In the 1931 census, over 450,000 individuals registered themselves as members of the new indigenous faith called Ad Dharam (or Original Religion). However, this faith and movement gradually declined after India gained independence due to the leaders' increasing involvement in state politics and the government's reservation policy, which focused only on providing reservations for low-caste individuals from Hindu, Sikh and Buddhist communities. Religion
Although the Ad-Dharmi are followers of Guru Ravidas (now Ravidassia religion), and incorporate elements of Sikhism as they regard Shri Guru Granth Sahib as their religious text. But after killing of Ramananda Dass on Vienaa triggered them a lot and they formed separate Amritbani and customs. Each of their settlement contains a gurdwaras and Ravidas Bhawans, which are both a centre of worship and as well as a focus of the community. Notable people
