Guru Balakdas (18 August 1805 — 17 March 1860) was son of the founder of the Satnampanth, Guru Ghasidas.[1] Guru Balakdas' activities aroused the hostility of high-cast Hindu populace and he was assaulted by attackers carrying daggers at a rest-house in Aurabandha village of Bilaspur and died at the village of Kosa in March 1860.[citation needed]
