BAHER,

BAHER, village 5 km east of Bassi Pathanan (30° 42\’N, 76° 25\’B) in Patiala district, has a historical shrine dedicated to Guru Tegh Bahadur who, according to local tradition, made a brief halt here on his way from Nandpur Kalaur to Dadu Majra Bhagrana. A monument existed here in the form of a platform until a regular shrine was built in recent years. The complex comprises a divan hall, a gateway, the Guru ka Langar and rooms for pilgrims. The main hall, with the sanctum in the middle of it, is topped over by a low dome. The Gurdwara is managed by a village committee.
