NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday visited Gurdwara Rakab Ganj where Guru Teg Bahadur was cremated in what was seen by many as an overture to protesting farmers — an overwhelming majority of whom are Sikhs from Punjab.
“This morning, I prayed at the historic Gurdwara Rakab Ganj Sahib, where the pious body of Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Ji was cremated. I felt extremely blessed. I, like millions around the world, am deeply inspired by the kindness of Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Ji,” Modi tweeted after visiting the shrine and also shared pictures with devotees present at the gurdwara during his 20-minute stay there. The PM shared details of his visit in Gurmukhi also.
