"Prayed for peace and harmony among society": AAP leader Manish Sisodia on Guru Nanak Jayanti

New Delhi [India], November 15 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia on Friday offered prayers at Gurudwara Shri Rakab Ganj Sahib on the occasion of Guru Nanak Jayanti and said that he prayed for peace and harmony among the society.
"I extend my wishes on the occasion of Guru Nanak Jayanti...I prayed at the gurudwara for the well-being of everyone and peace and harmony among the society," Sisodia said.

Meanwhile, the Golden Temple was illuminated with colourful lights on the occasion of Guru Nanak Jayanti.

Guru Nanak Jayanti, also known as 'Gurpurab', is a sacred festival that marks the birth anniversary of the first guru of Sikhism, Guru Nanak Dev.
It is a significant day in Sikhism since it commemorates the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the first of the 10 Sikh gurus and the founder of Sikhism. The celebration is notable for its fervent devotion, spiritual gatherings, and the recitation of hymns from the Guru Granth Sahib, Sikhism's holy scripture.
Every year, the auspicious occasion is held on the full moon date of Kartik month, also known as Kartik Purnima. Parkash Utsav is also observed on this day.
Guru Nanak Dev, who had been devoted to the Divine since boyhood, was a man of peace who spent his entire life promoting equality and tolerance. He was born in 1469 in the village of Rai Bhoi di Talwandi, today known as Nankana Sahib, near Lahore, Pakistan.
On Gurpurab, prayers are held in Gurdwaras throughout the day. The many components of the festival continue until late at night when devotees indulge in the langar. (ANI)
