CHABBA, a village 10 km south of Amritsar (31° 38`N, 74° 52`E) along AmritsarTarn Taran road, has a historical shrine called Gurdwara Sangrana Sahib. The Gurdwara itself is so named because, according to local tradition, one of the battles (sangram in Hindi and Punjabi) of Amritsar between Guru Hargobind (1595-1644) and the Mughal troops was fought here. Another tradition connected with the place is that Sulakkhani, a childless woman of the village, asked for and received a boon from Guru Hargobind as a result of which she subsequently became the mother of seven sons.
