- We will then visit Gurdwara Guru ka Bagh. This Gurdwara originally belonged to the local Nawabs, Karim Baksh and Rahim Baksh. Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji, on his way from Assam, visited this place, which was a barren garden (bagh). After Guru Sahib’s visit, the plants in the garden turned green. The Nawabs were very surprised and impressed with this sudden change. They donated this garden to Guru Sahib Ji.

The residents of Patna accompanied Shri Guru Gobind Singh Ji to see off him. At that time Guru Ji was about 5 years old. People walked about 12 miles and reached Danapur. An old lady whose name was Mata Jasni cooked khichdi for Guru Ji with love & affection and put the pot (Handi) of khichdi before Satguru Ji and requested him to eat.
