In 1708 being prescient of the end of his earthly role, the Guru has despatched Banda Singh with five of his Sikhs to Punjab and Mata Sahib Devan
under a seperate escort to Delhi before the stabbing incident. He told the rest of his retinue to retire to their homes if they so wished, but he bade
one Bhai Santhokh Singh to stay on here and keep Guru ka langar going, many others also close to remain. Together they built a room over the platform
where the used to site while holding his court and installed Guru Granth Sahib on it. They called it Takhat Sahib. Guru Gobind Singh, while conferring
Guruship on the holy book, had himself named Nanded as Abchalnagar (means steadfast city) after the first word of hymn read at random on the occassion.
Sachkhand (means region of Truth) had been used by Guru Nanak Dev to mean the abode of God.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji brought two royal prisoners from Satara Fort. The names of the prisoner were Balarao and Rustumrao.
There was then very dense forest at the place of Manmad Gurudwara. Sant Baba Nidhan Singh Ji started karsava from constructing Gurudwara here by
clearing the dense first with the help of his people. Hidden Bauli was found while constructing the Gurudwara. After cleaning the well, it was noticed
