Gurdwara Baba Gurditta

Gurudwara Baba Gurditta Ji is a Sikh temple (gurdwara) in the village of Chandpur Rurki of Nawanshahr District in Indian Punjab.

During this event, a new Nishan Sahib is made, lasts for at least two to three days and is begun with Bhog observances centred on Akhand Path recital.

During the celebration the Bhog ceremony is made, after which the holy dish 'Karah Parshad' is served to all attendees inside Gurudwara Hall as well as among outside Sewadars.

The previous day, a large nagar kirtan procession visits nearby villages and finishes at Gurudwara Sahib Ji.

Not only the residents of the village but ‘sangat’ from all surrounding area throng the Gurudwara Sahib on ‘sangrand’ to pay obeisance at the sacred place.

It is believed that during the life span of Baba Gurditta ji, he spent many years here & culminated his ‘tapasaya’ on the auspicious day of ‘bhadon sangrand’.

It is believed that Baba Mangal Singh, who was a devout Sikh belonging to Chak 116, Sahiwal district (now Pakistan) took upon himself the ‘sewa’ to build the gurudwara at the current site in the year 1843-45.
