The place where he pitched his tents (<i>tamb&#363</i>, in Punjabi) came to be treated as holy. The shrine subsequently established here was called Gurdw&#257r&#257 Tamb&#363 S&#257hib P&#257tsh&#257h&#299 Chhev&#299&#7749. Situated on a low mound about 250 metres south of the village, it was endowed during Sikh rule with a land grant of 75 acres. Its present building constructed by the local <i>sa&#7749gat</i> in 1983 is a small rectangular hall with the sanctum at one end. The Gurdw&#257r&#257 is affiliated to Nirmal Akh&#257&#7771&#257 and is managed by Nirmal&#257 priests.</p> </ol><p class="CONT">Jagj&#299t Si&#7749gh <br></p><BR> </font> <img src="counter.aspx" width="1px" height="1px" alt=""> </HTML></BODY>
