Gurdwara Kandh Sahib located at Batala, East Punjab, India

These are some Photographs of History plate, Donors stone, Mud Wall and Old Historic Gurudwara Kandh Sahib located at Achli Gate, Batala, East Punjab, India. It derives its name from a Kachchi Kandh (mud wall) linked with Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj.


This is the holy place of Shri kandh sahib where Shri Guru Nanak Dev ji in samvat 1544 came from Sultanpur Lodhi as groom and sat on this seat besides the wall of this intersection. One old lady came and said that this wall is not strong and could fall off any moment and you should move from here. Guru Nanak Dev Ji replied 'Oh innocent lady this wall would remain here for centuries as a memorial for our wedding'.


Historical information written in Gurmukhi on Commemorative plate reads as :
