AJITTĀ, BHĀĪ, a Randhāvā Jaṭṭ, whose name occurs in Bhāī Gurdās's roster of prominent Sikhs of Gurū Nānak, Vārāṅ, XI. 14, was a resident of the village of Pakkhoke Randhāve, close to the present town of Ḍerā Bābā Nānak in Gurdāspur district of the Punjab. It was at Pakkhoke Randhāve that Gurū Nānak's wife and children stayed with his parents-in-law after he had left home to go out to preach his word. Ajittā first met Gurū Nānak as he arrived in his village at the conclusion of his long travels and sat near the well owned by him. Ajittā was instantly converted and sought instruction from the Gurū. Bhāī Manī Siṅgh, Sikhāṅ dī Bhagat Mālā, records the discourse that took place between them.
