On the occasion of Prakash Purab of Guru Nanak Dev, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal will reach Gurudwara Rakabganj Sahib in New Delhi on Friday at 10:30 am. This comes after the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) claimed that its delegation was ‘denied’ permission to visit the Kartarpur Sahib gurdwara in Pakistan.
However, the AAP delegation under the leadership of Bhagwant Mann will take the Guru’s blessings from the border itself. Leader of Opposition Harpal Singh Cheema said the party MLAs were to proceed to Kartarpur on Friday, with state president Bhagwant Mann and state co-in-charge Raghav Chadha leading the delegation.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tributes to Sikhism founder Guru Nanak Dev on his birth anniversary, saying his vision of a just, compassionate and inclusive society inspires people.
आज गुरु नानक देव जी का पवित्र प्रकाश पर्व है।मैं विश्वभर में सभी लोगों को और सभी देशवासियों को हार्दिक बधाई देता हूं: PM @narendramodi
