On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will deliver a virtual address at Gurudwara Lakhpat Sahib in Kutch, Gujarat, to commemorate Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Gurpurab.
The Prime Minister will address the Gurpurab celebrations through video conference at roughly 12:30 p.m., according to an official announcement from the Prime Minister's Office (PMO).
Every year, from December 23 to December 25, the Gujarat Sikh Sangat commemorates Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Gurpurab at Gurudwara Lakhpat Sahib.
In the course of his travels, Guru Nanak Dev Ji stayed in Lakhpat. His artefacts may be found at Gurudwara Lakhpat Sahib, including wooden footwear and a palki (cradle), as well as manuscripts and Gurmukhi scripts.
The Gurudwara was damaged during the 2001 earthquake, according to the PMO. "The then Gujarat Chief Minister, Narendra Modi, had undertaken urgent efforts to ensure repair of the damages," the PMO said.
"This step showed the deep reverence of the Prime Minister for the faith, as also reflected in multiple recent endeavours, including the celebrations of 550th Parkash Purab of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, 350th Parkash Purab of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, and 400th Parkash Purab of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji," it further added.
