Gurdwara Sri Agampura Sahib, Balachaurਗੁਰਦੁਆਰਾ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਗਮਪੁਰਾ ਸਾਹਿਬ, ਬਲਾਚੌਰGurdwara Sri Agampura Sahib, Balachaur

This candidate has both a specific physical identity and an established Guru-route association. The Sikh Encyclopedia describes the old 4.5 metre square shrine and its later enclosure, while Haryana’s statutory gurdwara schedule independently lists Agampura at Balachur. It therefore passes the master-first site gate that earlier batches left open.

The standard Sikh reference identifies Agampura as a gurdwara on the outskirts of Balachaur, built in memory of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. It places the Guru’s visit in 1688 while travelling from Kapal Mochan toward Anandpur Sahib. The source describes an older square room, approximately 4.5 metres on each side, crowned by a low conical dome. That older memorial was later enclosed within a larger rectangular hall, showing clearly that the visible complex contains more than one construction phase. Guru Granth Sahib is described as installed in the inner sanctum. The Haryana Sikh Gurdwara management legislation separately lists Agampura under Balachur in Yamuna Nagar district, strengthening the present institutional identity without changing the historical source grading. Pothi therefore records the 1688 route association separately from the age of the surviving architecture.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji is remembered as visiting Balachaur on the 1688 route from Kapal Mochan to Anandpur Sahib. A shrine later developed at the remembered place and became known as Agampura.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji; Balachaur Sikh sangat; later local gurdwara custodians and statutory management institutions.

• Older approximately 4.5 metre square shrine described in the standard source.

• Low conical dome over the older room.

• Later larger rectangular hall enclosing the earlier memorial.

• Inner sanctum with Guru Granth Sahib in the standard description.

The Guru-period historical layer is the remembered 1688 visit. The small domed shrine and the larger enclosing hall are later memorial architecture and must not be described as surviving seventeenth-century fabric.

• 1688: Guru Gobind Singh Ji is remembered as visiting Balachaur while travelling from Kapal Mochan toward Anandpur Sahib. • Later memorial period: A small square domed shrine is established at the remembered site. • Later enlargement: The older shrine is enclosed inside a larger rectangular hall. • 2014 statutory layer: Agampura at Balachur appears in the Haryana Sikh Gurdwara management schedule. • 2026 Pothi status: Historical identity admitted; exact gate, current manager and building-condition details Pending refresh.

• HG-109 Kapal Mochan Sahib - preceding major route anchor.

• HG-110 Patshahi Dasvin, Jagadhri - separate Jagadhri-city route shrine.

• HG-375 Badshahi Bagh, Ambala and HG-374 Lakhnaur Sahib belong to a different earlier childhood route cluster.

• Do not confuse Balachaur Agampura with Agampur near Anandpur Sahib.

No portable Guru-period relic, manuscript or weapon is independently authenticated in the reviewed sources. The older shrine fabric is a fixed memorial feature, not proof of Guru-period construction.

The statutory schedule confirms institutional identity but not a publishable entrance pin. Pothi should verify the active gate, management contact, parking and visitor facilities before enabling navigation.

Visitors should expect a living historical gurdwara whose later hall contains an older memorial core. Pothi should present the route history and architecture as separate chronological layers.

• OLD HOLD RESOLVED: Batch 31 listed Agampura/Balachaur as a candidate pending duplicate and current-site checks.

• LOCALITY CONTROL: Balachaur, Yamunanagar/Jagadhri must remain in the title and aliases.

• BUILDING-DATE CONTROL: neither the older shrine nor the enclosing hall is automatically Guru-period fabric.

• COORDINATE CONTROL: statutory revenue identity is not an entrance pin.
