Gurdwaras in India

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

āīīīīīHistoric Gurdwaras in India [1] are those gurdwaras built to honour important people contributing to, or significant events occurring during, the growth of Sikhism primarily in what is now Punjab India. Of the hundreds of gurdwaras in India, Pakistan, and around the world, only a few are especially revered. Punjab (Land of the Five Rivers) in historical times included much of what is now Pakistan (for those gurdwaras see Gurdwaras in Pakistan).

The largest Sikh shrine in Bangalore, the Sri Guru Singh Sabha, is situated on the banks of the picturesque Ulsoor Lake. The sprawling white building on the edges of the lake, is indeed a well known place on the City’s landscape. Sri Gurusingh Sabha Gurudwara at Ulsoor was built in 1943 by A G Russell and was inaugurated in 1945. “While the Jollys and the Sahani families were the main forces behind the construction of the Gurudwara, all the community members and the Kohli and Chandoks families financed it under the leadership of Ahulwalia. It was only later in 1975, that the first floor of the Gurudwara was built. The monument is known for its splendid structure - it has added to the beauty of the area and Kensington Road where it is situated, which is also popularly known as Gurudwara Road. Being the biggest Gurudwara in City, a huge gathering of Sikhs come here on Wednesdays for prayer and the ‘langar’ on Sundays. All the devotees are offered free meals on Sundays, in what is known as the ‘Langar Sewa’. Around 500 people visit the Gurudwara on Sunday mornings, while more than 1,000 people visit in the afternoons and have their meal.
