  • Sixth GURU SHRI GURU HARGOBIND SAHIB JI passed through the area of SAHOKE AND remained and rest for half day in MAY/JUNE 1688.At that time it was a sandy area with scarcity of water.The water was available at village "POND"only. The village population was dominated by Muslim "Rangars"who are famous for quarllels .Guru ji send the devotee sikhs with horses for bathing the horses and drenching their thirst.Rangars allowed only one thing either bathing or drinking.Sikhs asked for bathing the horses thinking during bathing horses may take water.But the rangers tied their mouths.Although GURUJI was accompanied by devotee sikh soldiers but avoided uncalled scuffel with rangars as GURUJI were goining towards MEHERAJ for battle with army of Shah Jahan.At present no rangers are living.GURUJI came to this area starting from Daroli Bhai passing through Wadda Ghar,Langeana,Lande ,Rode,Smalsar Malke to Sahoke and further to LAMB WALI.The gurudwara is built at that place situated at boundry of Sahoke and Sekha Khurd about 1/1/2 KM from Village Sahoke.GURUJI may bless my "pind Sahoke"with all success and chardi kala and to all residents of SAHOKE.
  • In upper paragraph 1688 may please be read as "Bikrami Sammit"
  • Origin of SAHOKE ;-Although no concrete Historical evidence are available yet my old respected "BAZURGS" told that SAHOKEwas known as "bawenja Khera" in early 16th century.But due to some reasons like long drought or continious attacks by Muslim invaders who tried to abolish everything in Punjab,this village was also abolished in early 16th century may be during the attack of MUGAL Emperor BABBER in 1526 AD.Later on "BABA MOHAN" one of the son of "SAHO"was the resident of village DAUDHAR (now distt Moga)whose Nanke(mother'birth place)was at Sekha kalan.With the help of his relatives,BABA MOHAN founded (mohri gaddi)this village in the name of his father SAHO as SAHOKE near to sekha kalan in later 16th century.All the Sidhu Brars residing in this village are the decedants(Aulad) of Baba Mohan.For help in other works Baba Mohan also brought with him one family of each ie carpenter' weever,and others.The 'WELL'(Khooh)of the village is built of Nanak shahi bricks which also indicate towards the age of village as these bricks were used in 16th and 17th century.
