This Gurudwara belongs to 3rd Guru Shri Amar Das Ji. Here before Guru Ji was coming regularly, before becoming 3rd Guru of Sikh community. While Guru Ji visited at 21st time here at ganga ji,then a Pandit Ji named Shri Durga Dutt Ji met him. After some conversation with Pandit Ji, he pointed out that you are a NIGURA (in hindi) means a person without Guru. This comment of pandit ji badly affected Shri Guru Amar Das Ji thereafter guru ji (who was not guru at that time rather simple meditator) went to 2nd Guru Angad Dev Ji Maharaj ,and became his follower and served him 12 years at Khadoor Sahib,Amritsar. After becoming 3rd Guru of Sikhs he established a city GOINDWAL SAHIB, AMRITSAR and also came to Haridwar. At that time Guru Ji met Pandit Durga Dutt ji and blessed his past 21 generations ( called 21 Kullan in Hindi/Punjabi language). Guru Ji also finished the Hindu Sati Pratha which was a bad ritual in hinduism. Therefore this place is known as Sati Ghat since then to now. Many sikh families, devotees also visited this Gurudwara for handing over (called Jal Parwah of Phool of dead body) the ashes to ganga ji which is at the back side of this Gurudwara , after praying and doing Ardas in this Gurudwara. All above valuable detail has been given by Baba Davinder Singh Ji and also told that this place was established by Baba Dargah Singh Ji. Every year Gurupurb of Guru Amar Das Ji celebrated in the month of September on the day of Puranmashi. Mahant Ranjay Singh Sodhi Ji is maintaining this place of Gurudwara.
