Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tributes to revered Sikh saint Guru Gobind Singh on his 354th birth anniversary. “Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s life was devoted to creating a just and inclusive society,” PM Modi said while paying homage to the Sikh leader.

Guru Gobind Singh, the last of the ten Sikh Gurus, was a spiritual master, warrior, poet and philosopher.

While the saint was born on December 22, 1666 in Patna, Bihar, his birth anniversary is celebrated today because his devotees follow the Nanakshahi calendar, according to which the saint’s birth anniversary falls on January 20th this year. Interestingly, it was observed on January 2, last year.
