It is this place where Guru Nanak’s sister Bebe Nanki had settled after her marriage. Guru Nanak was sent to this place to start some earning. He was employed with Nawab Daulat Khan and worked at provision store belonging to the Sultan. There is a famous story that Guru Nanak used to count the articles up to thirteen which means Teran in Punjabi and then went to repeating Teran-Teran implying that i am yours (God’s). This place is marked by Gurdwara Hatt Sahib. There is also situated a Gurdwara at the residential place of Bebe Nanki Ji. However the main shrine is at Gurdwara Ber Sahib, where Guru Nanak is believed to have meditated under a tree after coming out of river Kali Bein (a river which was flowing that time near this town). It may be mentioned here that although 550th Birth Anniversary of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji will be celebrated all over the world, its main functions will be held at Sultan Pur Lodhi. Punjab Government has announced a number of plans for the city including making it a smart city.
