The day is centred on honouring Guru Tegh Bahadur’s supreme sacrifice, and PM Modi is reaching Kurukshetra to join the 350th martyrdom anniversary events. Haryana has prepared major cultural and spiritual programmes at Jyotisar, the sacred place linked with ancient wisdom and the Mahabharata. The whole focus is to remember the Guru’s courage, teachings, and message for humanity.

PM Modi’s Visit Becomes A Deep Spiritual Moment For The State

I feel the day carries a weight that’s hard to miss because the visit is not just a ceremony. The Prime Minister is here to stand with people who hold Guru Tegh Bahadur’s sacrifice as the highest symbol of protecting dharma, humanity, and religious freedom. The Haryana government and the Haryana Sikh Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee planned this large commemoration to spread the Guru’s message to a new generation, and today becomes a key moment in that effort.

Jyotisar has always had a special energy, and the event only adds to that. The Prime Minister will join the samagam, where thousands gather for remembrance, prayers, and reflections on the Guru’s legacy. It aims to remind how he gave his life so others could live with dignity and faith.

Why The 350th Martyrdom Anniversary Matters This Year

When you look at the Guru’s journey, the sacrifice feels larger than any one time period. Guru Tegh Bahadur stood for truth and shielded people who were facing persecution. His voice and courage still guide many. That is why this day, 350 years later, still sits so strongly in the hearts of Indians.

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said the state wants every young person to know what this history stands for, and he repeated that Guru Tegh Bahadur’s story must never fade. The government earlier celebrated the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev, and now this Shaheedi Diwas continues that commitment to honour Guru traditions with full respect.

PM Modi To Visit Mahabharata Anubhav Kendra After The Ceremony

After the Shaheedi Diwas programme, the Prime Minister will travel to the Mahabharata Anubhav Kendra. This centre is almost ready to open for visitors from India and other countries. It is designed to let people experience parts of the Mahabharata through immersive displays and storytelling spaces. It’s one of those places that can bring ancient history into a living moment.

PM Modi will also inaugurate Panchjanya at the same premises. The project highlights cultural heritage from Kurukshetra and is meant to become a major attraction for tourists and students.

International Gita Mahotsav Adds Another Layer To The Day

The International Gita Mahotsav is also happening today, and PM Modi will join the Maha Aarti. Kurukshetra becomes vibrant during this festival every year, but this time it feels bigger with the Shaheedi Diwas overlapping. The atmosphere is filled with spiritual gatherings, discourses, exhibits, and devotional music.

This combination of events makes the day meaningful for people who look for inspiration in faith and history. It draws attention to the values that shaped India’s cultural and spiritual path.

A Day Of Legacy, Learning, and Reflection For Everyone

It’s clear the entire visit is shaped around heritage, sacrifice, and remembrance. The Prime Minister’s presence brings more national attention to Guru Tegh Bahadur’s role in protecting the idea of India. His sacrifice remains timeless because it speaks to courage, unity, and humanity.

The government hopes that young people see this day not only as an event but as a reminder of the strength that comes from standing for the right thing. When history is preserved this way, it becomes easier for newer generations to keep these stories alive.
