Gurudwara Baoli Sahib at Sialkot City
The Gurdwara Baoli Sahib is located at a distance of two hundred meters from Gurdwara Bair Sahib. It was built over the site where once the house of Maula Karar stood. He was afraid to meet Sat Gur and at the instance of his wife stayed inside and died of snake-bite. And it was here
that Sat Guru created this Shabd.
False is friendship with the false and greedy. False is its foundation. 0 Mullah, no one knows where death shall strike. [21]
A fair used to be held on Basant panchami. This Gurdwara has been maintained by Bhai Natha Singh with great love and affection. The Gurdwara is beautifully built and it is presently being used as a school for the blind. Gurdwara Sahib has been hidden because the people have occupied the land lying around Gurdwara and built houses on it. The tank built by Bhai Natha Singh Ji is adjacent to it. It is present even to day but it is gradually heading towards extinction.
