Who was Shri Guru Arjun Dev Ji?

Shri Guru Arjun Dev Ji was the fifth Guru of Sikhism. He was born on 15 April 1563. He is considered the first martyr of Sikhism, who sacrificed his life to protect religious freedom and humanity. It is recorded in history that Mughal Emperor Jahangir had pressured Guru Sahib to accept Islam, but Guru Arjun Dev Ji fearlessly refused. After this, he was martyred in 1606 AD after being tortured fiercely. His martyrdom inspired the Sikh community to stand up for patience, courage, truth and against injustice and gave the message of ‘sacrifice for religion is the greatest service’.

Importance of the decision of the Punjab Government

This decision of the Punjab Government is not only a religious holiday, but also an attempt to honor a historical consciousness. The main objective of this decision is to connect the youth with their history, the sacrifices of the Gurus and religious values. This holiday will inspire people to follow the path shown by Guru Sahib and strengthen the spirit of tolerance, unity and service in the society.
