The correct answer is Option 3.
- Guru Arjan Dev was the fifth guru from 1581 to 1606.
- He became the first great martyr in Sikh history when Emperor Jahangir ordered his execution.
- Thus, he was hailed as Shaheedan-de-Sartaj (The crown of martyrs).
- He compiled the Adi Granth, the scriptures of the Sikhs.
- He completed the construction of Sri Darbar Sahib also known as the Golden Temple in Amritsar.
- He founded the town of Tarn Taran Sahib near Goindwal Sahib.
- It was in 1696 when Mughal emperor Jehangir ordered the arrest of Guru Arjan Dev in the Fort of Lahore.
- Guru Arjan Dev blessed Jehangir's rebellious son Khusrau, which enraged the Mughal king ordering his execution at once. Hence statement 1 is correct.
- Guru Arjan introduced the Masands, a group of representatives who taught and spread the teachings of the Gurus and received the Dasvand, a voluntary offering of a Sikh's income in money, goods or service. Hence statement 2 is correct.
