context_page_description: The Haveli Todar Mal popularly known as Jahaz Haveli or Jahaz Mahal is the 17th century residence of Todar Mal, a Khatri Punjabi businessman from Sirhind, and an ardent follower of the Sikh Gurus, who became the diwan in the court of Nawab Wazir Khan, the Governor of Sirhind, under Mughal Empire. Today, it is remember for the cremation of young martyred sons of Guru Gobind Singh and his mother.
  The haveli is situated in Harnam Nagar, on the Eastern side of Sirhind-Rupnagar Railway Line just 1 km away from Fatehgarh Sahib, and is now being taken over and restored by SGPC with the help of Punjab govt and INTACH.
  Todar Mal descendants moved from Sirhind to Ludhaina. The present descendants known as Mandals are from sub caste of Sood and are Kshatriyas. Both Todar Mal's in history are from the same family. The mandal family records are available in Haridwar since the 16th century. Todar Mal was from Punjab.
