Guru Nanak College, Sukhchainana Sahib, Phagwara, District Kapurthala, Punjab (India) is nestled near the revered Sikh shrine, Gurudwara Sukhchainana Sahib, which was built in sacred memory of Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji, the sixth Sikh Guru. The vision to establish this esteemed institution was conceived in 1969, as a tribute to the 500th birth anniversary of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism. The college came into existence in 1970 and has since evolved into a beacon of knowledge and holistic education in the region.

The institution has carved a niche in the field of sports, excelling in Football, Wrestling, Athletics, Boxing, Volleyball, Cricket, Tug of War, and Badminton, earning accolades at inter-college, inter-university, state, and national levels.
Apart from academics and sports, the college strongly promotes co-curricular and extracurricular activities. Students actively participate and achieve recognition in Youth Festivals, NCC, NSS, Guru Gobind Singh Study Circle, and various subject societies and associations, nurturing leadership and holistic development.
The college continues to fulfill its mission of delivering quality education with moral and social values, as envisioned by its late Chairman, S. Jagat Singh Palahi. Under the dynamic leadership of President of the Managing Committee, S. Jatinderpal Singh Palahi, and Principal Dr. Gurdev Singh Randhawa, the institution remains committed to shaping enlightened, responsible citizens.
Together, the Management, the Principal, and the Teaching and Non-Teaching Faculty strive relentlessly to uplift educational standards and foster value-based learning — truly serving a noble and transformative social cause.
