History

In the 17th century, Guldwarabangrasahib, known as the Jaisinghpura Palace, belonged to Rajajaisin, the Indian ruler of Jaipur, who held an influential position in the court of Emperor Aurangzeb of Mugar. The area now known as Connaught Place, a popular shopping, dining, and event district, was the culturally rich district of Jaisinghpura. It is said that when he came to Delhi in 1664, the eighth Sikh young Guru harkishan stayed in a bungalow. At the same time, a terrible epidemic of cholera and smallpox quickly spread throughout the city. The guru helped the poor and the sick by carrying drinking water from the well, and it was his kindness and mercy that comforted the affected people. Unfortunately, he was not immune to the infection and got sick. On March 30, 1664, Guru Har Krishan died. Raja Jai ​​Singh later built a tank on top of the well where Guru was carrying water. To date, the water from the tank is believed to be healing. This water is called "Amrit" and is said to heal the sick, so it is taken home by thousands of Sikhs. Gurudwara was built by military general Sardar Bhagel Singh. Around 1783, he built eight important Gurdwara in Delhi, and Banglasahib is probably the most prominent of them.
