History
The Gurdwara can be seen standing beside
Aligarh School even before Manga Bus Stop. There is a Chota
Nanakiana in this village at the site where Sat Guru Nanak Dev Ji had
stayed. 135 ghumaon of land is endowed in the name of gurdwara, 50
acres of this land is exempted from land revenue. The priests were
Sikhs and a fair used to be held on Viasakhi.
Guru Hargobind Ji had stayed at this place while he was coming back
from Nankana Sahib. The Gurdwara was built like a Daak bungalow
(govt rest house). There is a large pond which is now with the
Department of Fisheries. The building of Gurdwara was burnt down by
refugees settled here during 1947.
