NAULAKKHA, a village about 20 km north of Patiala (30° 20`N, 76° 26`E), has a gurdwara dedicated to the memory of Guru Tegh Bahadur who visited the site during one of his journeys across the Malva region. The shrine was managed for a long time by a line of mahants from whom the village Sikh community secured prossession of it during the days of the Gurdwara Reform movement of the 1920`s. The old building was replaced by a new one in 1991 Bk/AD 1934. This present building is constructed around a domed sanctum. The Guru ka Langar is close by. The shrine is managed by a local committee under the auspices of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee.
