      Respected Anonymous;

      As best as I know there no refernece to an answer to your question in the Gurbani of Sri Guru Granth Sahib.

      In my best opinion, looking at the situation, Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib ji scarificed his life to protect the human rights of the entire humanity.
      The Aurangzeb, the ruler of part of current India was challenging the human rights of the non-Muslims community. Remeber only the non-Muslims were being targetted. So it may be inappropriate to call him Hind di chaddar, because it was not for all residents of HInd (India). And calling him DHARAM DI CHADDAR, may also be limiting him because, Muslims will not come under that either.

      Lets just call him, Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Ji, the ninth Guru of SIkhs and that covers it all.
      I would leave it at that.
