CHAKAR, village 17 km south of Jagraon (30° 47`N, 75° 28`E), in Ludhiana district, is sacred both to Guru Hargobind and Guru Gobind Singh. Guru Hargobind passed through here in the course of his tour of the Malva in 1631-32 and Guru Gobind Singh at the end of 1705 after the battle of Chamkaur. The Gurdwara Guru Sar Patshahi VI and X, an imposing structure, is situated at the northwestern corner of the village. Constructed during the 1970`s, it is a large square hall with a square sanctum at the far end.
GHURANI KALAN, an old village in Ludhiana district, was visited by Guru Hargobind in whose memory two gurudwaras have since been constructed. GURDWARA CHOLA SAHIB PATSHAI II CHHEVIN is inside the village and marks the residence of Bhai Surtia, the local masand, leader of the local Sikh group, at the time of the Guru`s visit. Guru Hargobind is said to have stayed with him for 45 days. He was pleased by his devotion and bestowed upon him a few articles, the following of which are still preserved in the Gurdwara as sacred relics: 1. A chold or loose gown with 52 strings attached to it.
