Gurudwara Nagiana Sahib is a gurdwara (Sikh place of worship) located in the Udoke village, near Batala about 35 km from Amritsar, India. == History ==
The Gurudwara’s main building was built by Sant Baba Chuggat Singh. Earlier it was a small place but in 1960 it was renovated and expanded to a large building. It is said that Guru Nanak Dev stopped at the Udoke village on his way to his in-laws who lived in the city of Batala. He stayed here for 9 months and 26 days. According to a legend, a devotee cobra (''Nāga'') followed him everywhere. As the cobra had grown old, Guru Nanak requested him not to follow him any more and dwell at Nagiana. He blessed the placed and declared that the wishes of the truly faithful visitors to the site will be fulfilled. For this reason, some people perceive Nagiana Sahib as a place for worshiping snakes; however, the site chiefly remains a Sikh gurdwara. Inside the Gurudwara there's a ''parkash'' (presence) of Guru Granth Sahib, in a separate room the sculptures of cobras are displayed on a podium. Miniature cobras made out of metal can be obtained from an outlet at the Gurudwara to bestow offerings in the name of Nag Ji. For Nagis, killing a snake is considered a bad omen.
