History of Gangsar Jaitu
"Gangsar" Jaitu takes its name from a folk
story in which Guru Gobind Singh Ji visited the town and
was siting on a sand dune when he saw a saint crying.
The guru asked him why he was crying and the saint replied
that he was crying because he lost his bowl in the Ganges
river. After hearing his misfortune, the Guru fired off
an arrow which struck the ground and opened a water source.
Later Gurdwaras were constructed on both the sites, on
the sand dune where the Guru was sitting and where lake
was opened.
