Puranic Significance

Gurdwara complex is a beautifully built three storied building. There is a two storey Langar hall and residential rooms for Sikh pilgrims in front of it. This is now a deserted place. This shrine is looked after by Karyalewale Pir. People have started encroaching upon it. A Jagir of 500 ghumaon of land and ten shops are endowed to the shrine are in this village. Baba Jamiat Singh was a notorious thief of his area. Once, while he was getting away after stealing some buffaloes, a pursuit was started. He was likely to be caught red handed. Under the fear of apprehension he in this mind recited the name of Sat Guru and resolved not to steal again. The owner of the buffaloes came close to his cattle but could not identify them. After this incident. Jamiat Singh became a devotee of Guru and passed his whole life reciting the name of Sat Guru. The construction work of the shrine was completed in Samvat 1942. A fair is an organized every year but lacks luster of the past.
