History


Dyalpura Bhaika, named in honor of Bhai Dial Singh, a descendant of Baba Bhai Roop Chand Ji (1614-1709), was established around the mid-18th century. It is home to the revered Gurudwara Zafarnamah Sahib Patshahi X, which holds significant historical importance. According to local tradition, Guru Gobind Singh, during his stay at Dina in December 1705, retired during the day to a grove around a pool of water which stood at the site marked by the present gurudwara.

Here Guru Sahib Ji composed the Zafarnamah or the Letter of Victory, which he sent from Dina to Emperor Aurangzeb. The present building constructed by Sant Mani Singh during the 1930`s is a large-sized hall with a square sanctum in the middle of it, marked off by massive pillars and wide arches. The lotus dome above the sanctum has a tall pyramidal brass pinnacle. The old pool has been converted into a 40 meter square sarovar. The Gurudwara is managed by Nihangs of the Taruna Dal.
