The correct answer is option 1: Amritsar. While Lahore was the political capital of Ranjeet Singh, Amritsar held the title of his religious capital. Amritsar is considered the holiest city in Sikhism and is home to the famous Golden Temple, also known as Harmandir Sahib. This sacred site serves as the central religious and cultural hub for Sikhs around the world. Ranjeet Singh, who was a prominent Sikh ruler in the early 19th century, held great reverence for the Sikh faith and made significant contributions to the development and promotion of Sikh institutions. Hence, Amritsar was given the prestigious title of Ranjeet Singh`s religious capital.
