Wikipedia: Sheikhupura or Shekhupur, formerly Kot Dayal Das (کوٹ دیال داس) or Singhpuria (سنگھپوریہ), is an industrial city in the province of Punjab slightly northwest to Lahore in Pakistan. It is known for its historical places, and is commonly known locally as Qila Shaikhupura, because of the fort in the city, constructed by the Mughal Emperor Jahangir. The name Sheikhupura is derived from a nickname of Jahangir, who was known as Sheikhu by his father Akbar the Great.
