ALO HARAKH, village in Sangrur district, has a historical shrine called Gurdwara Sahib Alo Harakh Patshahi Naumi. A low domed Manji Sahib, under an old banyan tree marks the site where Guru Tegh Bahadur once sat arriving from the neighbouring village of Gunike. The congregation hall has a vaulting ceiling with a domed sanctum inside. Both the hall and the Manji Sahib were constructed in 1909. The Gurdwara is administered by the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee through a local committee.
BHAGTA or Bhagta, Bhai Ka, village 20 km east to Jaito (30° 26`N, 74° 53`E) in Faridkot district of the Punjab, was founded during the latter lialf of the seventeenth century by Bhai Bhagta, grandson of Bhai Bahilo (1553-1643) a leading Sikh of the time of Guru Arjan. As Guru Gobind Singh visited the village in December 1705, the five sons of the founder ~ Gurdas, Tara, Bhara, Mohra and Bhagtaserved him with devotion. Bhai Santokh Singh, Sn GurPratap Suraj Granth, records a popular legend according to which Bhai Bhagta had a well sunk with the help of spirits which were still held in captivity by his sons.
BHUNGARNI, village near the right bank of the Jalandhar branch of the Bist Doab canal, 20 km south of Hoshiarpur (31° 32`N, 75° 55`E), is sacred to Guru Har Rai, who stayed here in the course of his journey between Kiratpur and Kartarpur. A platform and a small shrine, established inside the village in honour of the Guru`s visit, was looked after for a long time by a line of Mirasi (Muslim bards or heralds) priests until the local Sikh sangat took it over in the Singh Sabha days. Later, a new building was raised on the site (cornerstone laid on 19 March 1917).
