The Gurdw&#257r&#257 P&#257tsh&#257h&#299 Chhev&#299&#7749 was in the control of Ud&#257s&#299 priests before it came under the administration of the Shiroma&#7751&#299 Gurdw&#257r&#257 Parbandhak Committee. It has been reconstructed since. The Gur&#363 Granth S&#257hib is seated on a square platform at the north end of a large rectangular hall. Above the sanctum, there are two storeys of rooms with a narrow and tall dome on top. The dome has an ornamental gold pinnacle with a <i>kha&#7751&#7693&#257</i> as finial. The <i>sarovar</i> has a peculiar design. It is a small circular tank around a wide well, with steps leading down to the water level from the direction of the hall.</p> </font> <p class="BIB"> BIBLIOGRAPHY<p class="C1"><ol class="C1"><li class="C1"> Gi&#257n Si&#7749gh, Gi&#257n&#299, <i>Tw&#257r&#299<u>kh</u> Gur&#363 <u>Kh</u>&#257ls&#257</i> [Reprint].
