Dakha. Guru Teg Bahadur National College Dakha. Dakha, a famous village of Dist. Ludhiana is situated in between Ludhiana and Jagraon on the Ludhiana Ferojpur Highway. In literary circles, village is known for the literary “Baba Bohar” S. Sant Singh Sekhon. However, for many others, it is famous as the village of General Sant Singh Sekhon, who remained the officiating Head of the Army for some period and whose farm was visited even by then Prime Minister of India Smt. Indira Gandhi. In 1969-70, some ignited souls which included Gen Sant Singh Sekhon, Major Bachitar Singh, Jathedar Gurdev Singh, Master Harbhajan Singh, Baba Jiwan Singh etc. started seriously pondering over the possibility a degree college at the very doorstep where the youth of the area, particularly the girls, could get the higher education. The dream realized in 1971 when the idea bloomed into reality: Baba Jiwa Singh came forward to donate his whole of land for the cause of the college. The dream of the elders seems to have realized as the college has blossomed into a successful multi-faculty post-graduate college affiliated with Panjab University Chandigarh since 1971. College has Post Graduate status in the subjects of History, Panjabi and Commerce. In B.A. we have the elective subjects of Fashion and Design, Computer Science, Economics, Sociology, History, Political Science, Punjabi and Physical Education. College is proud of its Commerce Department.

Girls have a special Common Room, having Gym, L.E.D., Inverter, Micro-wave etc. There a separate rest room in the canteen also. Conveyance is being provided on concessional rate to the girls coming from distant villages. The sole objective of the college is all-round development of the students’ personality. College authorities are contemplating of making many expansions in many dimensions to reach that coveted aim.
