Dhubri

Introduction

Sikh tradition in Assam associates Dhubri with Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Local shrine memory is institutional tradition.

The Journey

Eastern janamsakhi geography sometimes reaches Kamarupa / Assam. Dhubri’s Nanak association is recorded as traditional attribution. Gurdwara Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib at Dhubri relates to a later Guru and must not be merged with this entry.

The Sakhi

According to regional Sikh tradition, Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s sangat left a memory on the Brahmaputra. Episode-level detail is not treated as a court chronicle.

Historical Context

Approximate period: Traditionally placed in the Udasis of Guru Nanak Dev Ji (often dated by later writers to the late 15th and early 16th centuries). Exact years are not established.

Chronology uncertain / traditional sequence only.

Sikh Historical Tradition

Later Sikh tradition strongly associates this place with Guru Nanak Dev Ji, but the evidence for a specific visit is less certain.

Janamsakhi recensions and later Sikh memory are not treated here as interchangeable with independently proven itinerary. Where evidence is thinner, the status label says so.
