The Gurdw&#257r&#257 stands on the bank of a pond to the north of the village. It is a new building, a small square domed room, raised in 1931, replacing the old shrine. Additions in the form of a hall with some ancillary buildings were made in 1962. A pavilion has since been constructed for larger assemblies. The Gur&#363 Granth S&#257hib is now placed not in the older building but in the hall, on a masonry platform. The Gurdw&#257r&#257 is managed by the Shiroma&#7751&#299 Gurdw&#257r&#257 Parbandhak Committee through a village committee. Special <i>d&#299v&#257ns</i> and community meals are held on every <i>am&#257vasy&#257</i> &#8212 the last day of the dark half of the lunar month.</p> </font> <p class="BIB"> BIBLIOGRAPHY<p class="C1"><ol class="C1">K&#257hn Si&#7749gh, Bh&#257&#299, <i>Gurushabad Ratn&#257kar Mah&#257n Kosh</i>.
