Guru Sri Hargobind Sahib, the sixth Master of Sikhs founded
Kiratpur Sahib. The place is a small town in Shivalik foothills
in Rupnagar (Ropar) district. After the battles of Kartarpur
and Phagwara, Guru Hargobind Sahib settled here. It is also
a birthplace of seventh Guru Shri Har Rai Ji and eighth Guru
Shri Harkrishan Ji.
To end the harsh rule of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, Guru Teg
Bahadur Ji reached Delhi. Here he received a message from
Aurangzeb to get converted and accept Islam. Guru Ji said
that his religion was to work for the welfare of mankind so
he cannot change his religion. On 11th November 1675 at the
site of present day Sis Ganj Gurudwara, an executioner Sayyiad
Jalal Din of Samana village beheaded Guru Ji. Bhai Jaita brought
the sacred head of the ninth Guru Sri Tegh Bahadur to Kiratpur Sahib. Here Guru Gobind Singh along with his followers received Guru Ji's head with great devotion. Gurudwara Babangarh Sahib
stands at this place today.
