GHANAULA

GHANAULA, an old village 10 km north of Ropar (30°58`N, 76°3rE) in the Punjab, used to be the headquarters of a parganuh in Mughal times. It claims a historical shrine which commemorates the visit of Guru Gobind Singh in 1688 while he was returning from Paonta to Anandpur. He again passed through Ghanaula on 6 December 1705 while proceeding to Kotia Niharig Khan en route to Chamkaur. The Gurdwara, a modestlooking singleroom structure on the top of a mound near an old fortress, is looked after by the village sangat.
