[S1ngh]

I never heard about bhai sahib's family. All I know that he lived in dehradun and the history of discrimination against him by indian army officials and government.

His Pind/Village is Khuala in Amritsar district. He is the descent of a long line of military men going back several generations. Had he not become a Shaheed, he planned to settle down in Dehradun because he had farmland there. His daughter also became a Shaheed in operation bluestar. Gen Shabegh Singh was a blessing for the Sikhs. Sikhs could not have had a better person to plan the defense of Darbar Sahib than him. It was him against the senior commanders of the Indian army who were backed up by the expert military advise given by the Soviets, British and Israelis.

General Shabeg Singh- the great general of modern times belonged to village Khiala, about nine miles from Am Chogwan Road. The eldest son of Sardar Bhagwan Singh and Pritam Kaur. He had three brothers and a sister. The General traced its lineage to great Sikh warrior, Bhai Mehtab Singh who along with Bhai Sukha Singh slew the notorious Massa Rangar in 1740 and thus avenged the desecration of the Golden Temple. The family was was well-to-do and prosperous and had good size of land holding of over 100 acres. The village Khiala was earlier known as Khiala Nand Singhwala. Nand Singh was the great grandfather of Shabeg Singh. Later on the name got shortened. Mother of Shaheg Singh was devout lady but she was very practical and a great disciplinarian. She never forgot to remind her children and grand children that they were the descendents of Baba Mehtab Singh and must live up to the family name. Sardar Bhagwan Singh was the village Lambardar and remained quite occupied with the problems of the village folk who always looked to him for guidance and depended greatly upon his advice .
