Gurdw&#257r&#257 P&#257tsh&#257h&#299 Chhev&#299&#7749 Param Pill&#257&#7749 commemorating the visit is situated 6 km east of U&#7771&#299 and marks the site where, according to local tradition, the Gur&#363 held a discourse with some Muslim holy men. A small Gurdw&#257r&#257 built by Sard&#257r Har&#299 Si&#7749gh Nalv&#257, the celebrated general of Sikh times, was reconstructed in 1983. The present building is a rectangular hall, with the sanctum at the far end. The Gurdw&#257r&#257 is managed by the Jamm&#363 and Kashm&#299r Gurdw&#257r&#257 Board through its district committee at B&#257r&#257m&#363l&#257.</p> </ol><p class="CONT">Gurnek Si&#7749gh<br></p><BR> </font> <img src="counter.aspx" width="1px" height="1px" alt=""> </HTML></BODY>
