Gurudwara Pehli Patshahi Tilganji Sahib, Quetta

Quetta is the capital of Baluchistan province. The Gurdwara of Sri Guru Nanak Sahib Ji called Tilganji Sahib is located at Masjid road of the city.

Guru Nanak graced this city during his third itinerary. When the Guru Nanak arrived here Sikhs came to see him.

Guru Nanak honoured the group of Sikhs by distributing Til (sesame) as parshad (offering) and hence this pious Gurdwara was named as Tilganji.

The Government Sandeman school is functioning inside this holy Gurdwara. A new school building has been constructed on the vacant land of the Gurdwara.

The main gate of Gurdwara takes after a mosque and inside there is a beautiful and strong building with dome. The sarai for the stay of the visitors, dining hall and Prakashasthan are very beautiful. Sangat of Quetta has filed a law suit in the lower court to get back the possession of the Gurdwara.
