The event took place at Jyotisar village in Kurukshetra, Haryana. As a mark of homage, the Prime Minister formally released a special commemorative postage stamp, a special coin, and a coffee-table book dedicated to Guru Tegh Bahadur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The function was organized by the Haryana government under the leadership of Nayab Singh Saini (Chief Minister of Haryana), and witnessed attendance from thousands of devotees across Haryana and neighbouring states. The event was not only a traditional homage but also symbolised collective national respect and reverence for the sacrifices of the Sikh Guru. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Interfaith_Harmony_Symbolism_Through_Gurbani_Recital\"><\/span>Interfaith Harmony: Symbolism Through Gurbani Recital<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A notable and deeply symbolic segment of the event was an interfaith recital of Gurbani (sacred Sikh hymns). Around 350 school students from a school in Patiala \u2014 representing Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian communities \u2014 together participated in the kirtan (devotional singing). This collective recital embodied the message of unity, mutual respect, and religious harmony that Guru Tegh Bahadur stood for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This interfaith dimension underlined the inclusive ethos of the event, going beyond community lines, showing respect not just within Sikh circles but to broader Indian pluralism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PMs_Address_Honouring_Sikh_Heritage_National_Legacy\"><\/span>PM\u2019s Address: Honouring Sikh Heritage &amp; National Legacy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his address, PM Modi invoked the memory of Guru Tegh Bahadur as \u201cHind Di Chadar\u201d \u2014 literally \u201cShield of India\u201d \u2014 underscoring his role as protector of faith and religious freedom during the Mughal era. He recalled how Guru Tegh Bahadur refused to convert under pressure and embraced martyrdom to defend the religious rights of persecuted communities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also praised the courage of Bhai Jaita (also referred to as Bhai Jeevan Singh), who risked his life and carried Guru Tegh Bahadur\u2019s severed head to safety in Anandpur Sahib \u2014 an act exemplifying loyalty and sacrifice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Prime Minister further highlighted several government initiatives that reflect the central government\u2019s ongoing commitment to honour Sikh heritage. These include expansion of heritage-preservation efforts such as the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor, development of projects like the ropeway to Hemkund Sahib, and enhancement of cultural institutions like Virasat\u2011e\u2011Khalsa museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Associated_Inaugurations_Cultural_and_Spiritual_Significance\"><\/span>Associated Inaugurations: Cultural and Spiritual Significance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from the commemorative releases, the event at Jyotisar saw the inauguration of the Panchajanya Memorial at the Mahabharata Experience Centre \u2014 a golden-conch structure symbolising Lord Krishna\u2019s divine conch (Panchajanya). This further strengthened the cultural and spiritual ambience of the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PM Modi also performed a maha-aarti at the sacred Brahma Sarovar, as part of the ongoing International Gita Mahotsav 2025 held in Kurukshetra. He visited the Mahabharata-themed galleries, interacted with scholars, signalling a blend of Sikh tribute and pan-Indian cultural tradition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator
