Sat Sri Akaal
I visited today morning- it was very quite and peaceful there.

A gurudwara meaning is (door to the guru ) is a place of assembly and worship for sikhs. Sikhs also refer to gurdwaras as Gurudwara sahib. People from all faiths are welcomed in Sikh gurudwaras. Each gurudwara has a Darbar Sahib,  where the current and everlasting guru of the Sikhs, the scripture ' GURU GRANTH SAHIB JI ' is placed on a takhat  (an elevated throne) in a prominent central position. The raagis (who sing Ragas ) recite, sing, and explain the verses from the Guru Granth Sahib, in the presence of the congregation.

All gurdwaras have a langer hall, where anyone can eat free vegetarian food served,by volunteers at the gurdwara.

They may also have a medical facility room, library, nursery, classroom, meeting rooms, playground, sports ground, a gift shop, and finally a repair shop. A gurdwara can be identified from a distance by tall flagpoles bearing the Nishan sahib , the Sikh flag ,means identity of gurudwara sahib . In past 17 th century in punjab when india is under the mughal empire, when hindu people or poor nd needy people had harassing by mughals who was created the law to forcefully converting their religion of non Muslim people into Muslim so that time Nishan Sahib (the sikh flag ) which is so tall and people can see from 5 to 10 kms ,so that time they has last hope because only sikhs was fought with mughals to protect evry non Muslim communities from mughlas, that time sikh evry sikh has same ideology like today raise their voice and fight with evil nd kill them or sacrificed their life for protecting others and in this way sikhs saved so maany girls and ladies of hindu community which forcefully took by afgani mughals (afganistan) so when ever they had robbed the india to took out there gold nd priceless items as well as girls which they had sells into gajani market ( today in afganistan) and basra (in Iraq) market on very few amount money , only sikhs had there last hope because mughals always going back through cross punjab region to reach there country like afganistan, iran , Iraq probably middle east so in the day time sikhs was hide into forest area because punjab had also mughal empire like india , so at night time the sikhs attacked on them evry time they took out that girls from mughals and returned to their homes , so by chance if any girl missed out or forget her way to some other path next morning she trying to see sikh flag nearby her so when she reaches at places of sikhs then sikhs also returned her to their home .( one unique ideology filled by sikh gurus into true sikh is that they allways thinks someone mother and sister as their own , even mughals as well as ,they never looked any girl or lady as bad eye , this things really makes them to very strong connection between god nd sikh) in today era sikhs allways served for india they are most bravest people in world even in bristh empire they r 2 percent from whole india. But in bristh indian army their strength is 75 percent because of their faith and honesty but in india the deducted the percentage nd now they r after last war of india with Pakistan in 1992 there amount comes into 5 to 15 percent , even after independence of indian sikhs decided to stay with india which was worst decision sikh leadership made in1947 nd now its 2020 in india. They have always treated like second clas they never had any justice nd that why they r migrating from india , even sikhs have most maximum highest army gantry awards even they r 2 percent in indian but no matters majority of hindu trying to forcefully converting into hindu they want to wash out they separate ideology in india , when ever from last 73 years they trying to make their own country in punjab border province they put them labbel as terrorist , even 9 lakh sikhs sacrificed their lifes in india from year 1984 to 2020 and same amount of life's they sacrificed in 3 centuries, but noone listening them , the was fought in world one and 2 approximately 10 lakhs sikhs sacrificed their lifes nd they protected half of the Europe from Germany,freedm of india their role93%
