Gurudwara Singh Sabha was built in 1928. In 1914 railway station came into existence, foodgrain market was established. Bhucher family made an inn here. But there was no arrangement of the food for the passengers there. There was no Gurudwara in the city.

A committee was made to purchase the land for the Gurudwara. It had 25 members. This committee bought the land and the construction of Gurudwara started . After Jaswant Singh, Jagjit Singh Bajwa, Fauja Singh, Major Singh and Thakur Singh became the chairman of this committee.

Some 23 years ago when people were satisfied with the working of the old committee. A five member board was created. Its member include Joginder Singh, Mohinder Singh Bajaj, Saroop Singh Urapar and Harcharan Singh Mahajan. This committee has done a lot of work which is quite appreciable. More land was purchased a school was built, Langar Khana, residential rooms, office and a hall of 3600 feet was built by the new board.
