Gurdwara Mata Sunder kaur is that pure shrine where Mata sunder kaur, wife of Guru Gobind Singh ji was born from Mata Shiv devi. On 7 Visakh 1741 Bkarmi Mata Sunder Kaur jee married with Guru Gobind Singh. Mata Murgai the decendent of Mata Sundri took care of this place. She died after 125 years giving whole land in the name of Tarna Dal in 1960. Baba Harbhajan SIngh Did parkash of Guru Granth Sahib at this place. Now Baba Nihal Sing undertook the Gurdwara Sahib and construction is going on.

This place is situated in village Bajwara which is 2 Km away from Hoshiarpur.

This Historic Site now Cries out For Care

The Building which is not well maintained and in need of serious care and conservation is the Janam Asthaan of Mata Sunder Kaur je the Wife of Shri Guru Gobind Singh jee who lost all four of his young sons who chose Martyrdom over convesion and defeat. Such a supreme sacrifice could only be appreciated by their living mother who had given them birth.

Today when any mother sees, even a small wound on her child she cries out in fear, what must Mata Sunder Kaur have felt?

The Tarna Dal's Website states that the consservation and repairs are proceeding, but I haven't found any material pertaining to any construction at this important site. Even the Gurdwara was locked when i traveled to the site. The Sikh Sangat should do something for this gurdwara.
