PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said Guru Gobind Singh remains an embodiment of courage, compassion and sacrifice and his life and teachings inspire everyone to stand for truth, justice, righteousness and to protect human dignity. Modi said that the vision of Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru, continues to guide generations towards service and selfless duty. “On the sacred Parkash Utsav of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, we bow in reverence to him. He remains an embodiment of courage, compassion and sacrifice.

 

His life and teachings inspire us to stand for truth, justice, righteousness and to protect human dignity,” he said in a post on ‘X’. The Prime Minister also shared a few pictures of his visit to the Takhat Sri Harimandir Patna Sahib earlier this year, where he also had ‘darshan’ of the holy ‘Jore Sahib’ (a pair of shoes) belonging to Guru Gobind Singh and Mata Sahib Kaur. On January 9, 2022, Modi had announced that December 26 would be observed as ‘Veer Bal Diwas’ to commemorate the martyrdom of Sahibzades Baba Zorawar Singh and Baba Fateh Singh, the sons of Sri Guru Gobind Singh.

 

To mark Veer Bal Diwas, the Government is organising programmes across the country aimed at informing and educating citizens about the extraordinary courage and supreme sacrifice of the Sahibzades. PM Modi has attended an event organised on the occasion of Veer Bal Diwas on Friday where he said the supreme sacrifice of the sahibzades (sons) of Guru Gobind Singh, represents the ultimate expression of India’s indomitable courage, valour and bravery against the cruel Mughal Sultanate, shaking the very existence of religious fanaticism and terror.
