GURDWARA KOTHRI SAHIB

After complaints of`'misappropriation' of the stores , the Guru was called to the house of the Accountant General Jadu Rai to render the accounts. After thorough checking it was found that the state was to pay Rs. 136/- to Guru Nanak .He refused to get the payment and asked the official of the Khan to distribute the same to the needy and himself resigned his post.

The place where the accounts were rendered, has been named as Gurdwara Kothri Sahib.

GURDWARA SANT GHAT

The Guru had appeared near a cemetery about 3 miles up-stream after about 72 hours of his disappearance. A grand monument has been constructed at the Spot and is named as Gurdwara Sant Ghat. During Maharaja Ranjit Singh's regime the management of the Gurdwara vested in Udasi Mohants. Sant Sadhu Singh Nirmla. Jathedar Santa Singh Lasuri and Sant Udham Singh have done commendable work to reconstruct the new buildings at the site of the old building which was washed away by floods. There are three reasons to designate this Gurdwara as Sant Ghat Firstly, the Guru had assumed his holy mission from this spot: Secondly Guru Arjan Dev ji had named it so and lastly the management of the shrine remained in the hands of Udasi for a long period. The Gurdwara owns quite a large area of land and gardens around it.
