Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji came to the village of Gurne Kalan from the village of Lehra- Gaga while on his way from Talwandi Sabo to Dhamtan. Guruji along with his beloved Sikhs had earlier stopped at the village of Lehra -Gaga while traveling from Gobindpur. Some of the Sikhs had gone to the fields to get grass for their horses. Unaware of Guruji's presence in their village the ignorant landlords had not allowed his Sikhs to cut any grass. The Sikhs went back to Guruji and recounted the incident, whereupon Guruji and his companions left the village of Lehra and moved on to Gurne Kalan.

The landlords, as well as the villagers of Lehra -Gaga subsequently realized their mistake and came to Guruji at Gurne Kalan to ask for pardon. After staying for three days, Guruji left the village of Gurne Kalan for Makorar Sahib. The natives of village Lehra-Gaga also followed Guruji and asked for his forgiveness. Guruji finally blessed them. The important annual event in the Gurdwara is Shahidi Divas of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji. In addition, Dussehra and Baisakhi are also celebrated with enthusiasm here.
