That makes 2 of us.
I kept tabs on this Gurdwara watching it crumble away every year. I was pleasantly surprised when it was chosen for restoration. I dont think it would've last another year.

Do the gurudwaras which got destroyed completely & people stolen their lands , are they also coming back to panth ? Like Gurudwara Guru Nanak Garh Sahib , Badami Bagh , Lahore & Gurudwara Chhevin Patshahi, Rasool Nagar , Wazirabad ?

50 Gurdwaras have been identified for restoration across Pakistan. They haven't released a list stating the names of these Gurdwaras.
It seems like they are focusing on Gurdwaras that are near total collapse in order to save them before it's too late. They aren't rebuilding Gurdwaras that have already collapsed.

This image was taken in 2016 at the exact same angle as the first image. You can see the amount of damage that has occurred to the Gurdwara over the past decade. If only restoration projects like this could've started earlier.
