The Chhota Ghallughara Memorial, also known as the Chhota Ghallughara Yaadgar, [1] is a memorial to the Sikh massacre of 1746, known as the Chhota Ghallughara , where over 10,000 Sikhs were slain by the Mughal administration and their allies. [2] [3] [note 1] The 10 acre memorial is located in Kahnuwan Chhamb, Gurdaspur district, Punjab, India and was in-augurated by Parkash Singh Badal on 28 November 2011. [4] [5] [6] [7] The site is connected to a special pilgrimage bus service route by District Heritage Society Gurdaspur. [8] A 15 kilowatt solar plant was in-augurated at the site in 2022. [9] According to Vikramdeep Johal, the memorial's raising has been criticized by the Congress party as a political stunt by the joint SAD-BJP government in the run-up to the assembly elections. [10]
