This Gurdwara is located at a village “Padhana” lies just 0.5 km from the Indo-Pak Border, about 30 km from Lahore City and 13 km south from Wagah-Atari Border. Sixth Sikh Guru, Guru Hargobind Ji (1595-1644) arrived in this village from Dhilvan due to the love and affection of the villagers. During his stay, he talked about Sat Gur Ji with a Jat of Sandhu clan named Jalhan Jat, a prominent land lord of the village. Initially Gurdwara was built in a simple pattern. Sardar Attar Singh of Padhana, the chief of this village, started the reconstruction of it, and with the efforts of villagers a beautiful building was erected.
