AJRANA KALAN

AJRANA KALAN, village in Kurukshetra district of Haryana, 12 km southwest of Shahabad (30°lb`N, 76°53`E), is sacred to Guru Tegh Bahadur who stopped here in 1670 while on his way from Delhi to join his family at Lakhnaur. A Manji Sahib established to commemorate the visit of the Guru exists on the southern side of the village. It consists of a small octagonal domed structure, built on a wider base. The Gurdwara is administered privately by a Sikh family of the village. A civil suit for the control of the shrine is going on between this family and the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee as represented by the Gurdwara Committee of Shahabad. 1.
