Travel Tips
SULTANPUR LODHI is an old town in Kapurthala district of the Punjab, where Guru Nanak put up for several years before setting out on his travels to deliver his message. In this town lived his sister, Bibi Nanaki, and her husband, Jai Ram, an official in the service of Nawab Daulat Khan Lodhi, a feudatory chief, who became governor of the Province of Lahore during the first quarter of the sixteenth century. At the instance of Jai Ram, Guru Nanak took up employment in the Nawab's provision stores. During that time there grew up a sangai, holy fellowship of disciples, which so prospered that Bhai Gurdas in his Varan, called Sultanpur the "treasure of God's adoration." Sultanpur Lodhi has several gurdwaras commemorating events connected with the life of Guru Nanak. |
