SAHIB CHAND, village 11 km northeast of Giddarbaha (30"12'N, 74°39'E) in Faridkot district of the Punjab, is sacred to Guru Gobind Singh (1666 - 1708). Gurdwara Patshahi X, marking the site where the Guru had stopped awhile when travelling through these parts in 1706, stands on the bank of a pond at the northwestern edge of the village. The present building constructed in 1960 comprises a 4metre square sanctum, with a hall in front. The hall is skirted by averandah on three sides. The Gurdwara owns some farming land and is managed by a local committee under the overall control of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee.
