Alpa is located at a distance of twelve kilometer from Halla right on the bank [32]. of River Ravi. Jagat Guru Nanak Dev Ji arrived in this village from Nankana and stayed for a while. Earlier this shrine was about four kilometers outside village Alpa but now a village called Chota Nanakiana Alpa has been built here. Once upon a time Prakash used to take place here and fair used to be held on Visakhi. Only three rooms stand now which housed a Govt School. These rooms-are now lying vacant. The roofs have caved in. There is a huge estate endowed in the name of this shrine in this as well as in some other villages.

Guru Nanak Ji had arrived in this village from Alpa. He relieved a money lender from his suffering and created this Shabd: Branded with a thousand marks of disgrace, Imira cried in shame. Paras Raam returned home crying. Ajai cried and wept, when he was made to eat tlie manure lie had given, pretending it was charity. (Shalok, First Mehl.)

Sardar Sant Naranjan Singh Ji of Ajitsar. 2. Bhai Sangat Singh Ji of Sangrana Sahib. 3. Bhai Pardhan Singh Ji Ragi of Faroka District Sargodah. 4. Bhai Ram Singh Ji of Montgomery (Sahiwal). 5. Bhai Labh Singh Ji Granthi of Renala Khurd. The construction was stopped and it remained at the stage reached (in 1947). In the past a big Visakhi fair used to be celebrated but this tradition has now been discontinued. [38] [/QUOTE]
