Guru Angad Dev, his first successor, did yeoman's work for the evolution of the nascent community. Over a hundred sangats Glocal congregations of disciples) came to be set up during his pontificate. Langar, the free community kitchen, was organized on an impressive scale. A new script, later to be called Gurmukhi, was updated and popularized, which could help to rescue the people from the clutches of Sanskrit, the linguistic citadel of the Brahmin priestly class. It was also employed to improve the level of public literacy. Seeds of martial spirit were sown by organizing competitions in wrestling and other physical skills among the youth. All these activities were going to determine the future direction of the evolution of the Sikh community and the Sikh faith. Guru Angad Dev is ever remembered for all these, besides, of course, his spiritual precepts and inspiring sublime shlokas.
