Gurdwara Manji Sahib Alamgir is situated at Alamgir 11 km from the industrial
town of Ludhiana popularly known as Manchester of India, where Guru Gobind
Singh reached in the blue robs of Pir of Uchch (muslim saint) in
a palanquin carried by Bhai Daya Singh Dharam Singh and Man Singh and
two Afgan brothers Ghani Khan and Nabi Khan and stayed for a few
days to escape from the Mughal army and in that place he did’nt
found any water to drink and so he shot an arrow into the ground
and there appeared a spring. This spring has been converted into a tank
known as 'Tirsar' (arrow lake).The shrine is near to this spring..It is
a six-storied beautiful shrine. Guru was gifted by a horse at this
place by one of his devotee Bhai Naudha in order to escape from the enemies
at the time when he was staying there and then he used the horse to travel
and he need not want the palanquin so he sent back the muslim brothers
after showing his gratitude for their help . The Guru tied his
horse in a small Phalahi tree which still stands today. Gurdwara Manji
Sahib Alamgir is the famous Gurdwaras in Ludhiana . A fair is held
there in every December
