A memorial platform was later constructed on the site where he had encamped. The present Gurdw&#257r&#257 Mañj&#299 S&#257hib Chhev&#299&#7749 P&#257tsh&#257h&#299, raised in 1921, is a modest sized hall with the sanctum in the middle where the Gur&#363 Granth S&#257hib is seated. In the compound in front of the hall is the Gur&#363 k&#257 La&#7749gar. The <i>sarovar</i> is close by, to the south of the main building. The Gurdw&#257r&#257 is managed by the Shiroma&#7751&#299 Gurdw&#257r&#257 Parbandhak Committee through a local committee.</p> </font> <p class="BIB"> BIBLIOGRAPHY<p class="C1"><ol class="C1"><li class="C1"> Narotam, T&#257r&#257 Si&#7749gh, <i>Sr&#299 Gur&#363 T&#299rath Sa&#7749grahi</i>.
