Where Hansali Sahib is
Hansali is a village in Fatehgarh Sahib district, about 11.5 km from Fatehgarh Sahib and 4 km from Khera, which is why the run is also known as the Hansali Khera Run. Wikipedia puts it about 37 km from Chandigarh, with Sirhind, Bassi Pathana and Rajpura nearby.
The village is known for its dera. Baba Ajit Singh Hansaliwale (c. 1936–2015) headed the Nirmal Dera trust there, which runs charitable projects including a free hospital, a school and a girls’ college. Google Maps lists two gurdwaras in the village, Gurdwara Sahib Hansali and the gurdwara of Sant Baba Ajit Singh Hansali Wale, so check the organisers’ posts for the exact start point before you set off.
