Jawaddi Taksal
Founder: Late Sant Baba Sucha Singh ji
Present Mukhi (Chief): Sant Baba Amir Singh ji

Gurdwara Gur Gian Parkash, Jawaddi Taksal, Ludhiana is headed by Sant Baba Sucha Singh Ji. He is a saint with religious fervor, always preaching the word of the God.

First of all the Vismaad Naad took upon itself the task of research and upkeep of Sikh heritage. With this objective in view, research in Gurmat Sangeet was initiated. By establishing the Raag Evaluating Committee the forms of the ragas were authenticated. Based on this research, a number of Gurmat Sangeet Workshops were organized in Gurdwara Gur Gian Parkash, Jawaddi Kalan, Ludhiana for imparting training to Raagi Singhs for chanting Gurbani (the divine word) in the approved forms. For this purpose, Gurshabad Sangeet Academy came into existence which took upon itself the onerous task of research, training and dissemination of Gurmat Sangeet to the children and issues diplomas after the successful completion of the course.

Sant Baba Sucha Singh Ji, the founder of Jawaddi Taksal, was born in 1948 A.D. in village Jamiatgarh Bhalle, Distt. Ropar (Punjab).Baba Ji’s father was Bapu Nagina Singh Ji and mother Mata Dhan Kuar Ji. Love for God, recitation of Gurbani, following Sikh way of living and concern for betterment of the Sikh Panth/Qaum was in his blood, inculcated by his God loving parents. Baba Ji’s parents were having unshakable faith in the home of Sri Guru Nanak. Baba Sucha Singh Ji served Sant Baba Isher Singh Ji Rara Sahib Wale for some period of time, got blessings from there and following sacred hymn” came to the multicultural Ludhiana city.

Baba Ji selected an earthy village Jawaddi in one corner of the city, having a historical importance, as the Sixth Master, Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji has once visited his disciple Bhai Jawanda’s house in this village. With the motto of spreading the Divine Message of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji among the masses through out the world i.e. for Sarbat Da Bhala, in 1985, Baba Ji established a small center in the name of Gurdwara Gur Gain Parksah, Jawaddi Taksal Ludhiana, popularly known as Jawaddi Taksal which includes number of small concerns such as Gurshabad Sangeet Academy, Vismaad Naad, Sukh Sagar Charitable Dispensary, Guru Hargobind Sahib Library, etc.
