The formation of the 바카라Khalsa Panth바카라 played a pivotal role in the downfall of the Mughals, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Monday at an event to commemorate Guru Nanak바카라s birth anniversary here.

Adityanath said while it was an era when powerful kings and Maharajas submitted to the Mughal dominance, the Sikh gurus independently defended the nation and its faith on their own, according to an official government statement.

바카라The formation of the 바카라Khalsa Panth바카라 played a pivotal role in the downfall of the Mughal Sultanate. Today, Sikhs are present all over the world, but there is no trace of the power of the Mughals. This is the path of truth and religion,바카라 Adityanath was quoted as saying at a ceremony organised on the occasion of the 554th 'Parkash Parv' or birth anniversary of Guru Nanak.

Sacrifices by the Sikh gurus extended beyond the 바카라Khalsa Panth바카라 (Sikh community), serving to protect both India and the faith, he said.

Extending his wishes to the people of the state on the occasion of 'Guru Parv', Adityanath stressed 바카라the exemplary qualities of renunciation, sacrifice, devotion, strength, and meditation demonstrated by the Sikh gurus바카라, which he said 바카라serve as a model바카라 for both the nation and the faith, the government statement said.

The chief minister underlined the global impact of Guru Nanak's teachings, stating his wisdom has not only guided India but has also reached every corner of the world, it said.

Adityanath said that there were two sides to Guru Nanak's teachings, one for spiritual practice and the other for public and national welfare. 

바카라Through devotion, Guru Nanak Dev Ji raised his voice against the atrocities of Babar during that period. We get inspiration from Guru Nanak Dev Ji to free ourselves from casteism and regressive thinking," he said.

He lauded the sacrifices of Guru Tegh Bahadur, Guru Gobind Singh, the 바카라four Sahibzadas바카라, and the thousands of other Sikhs who dedicated themselves to the cause of the country and religion.

Adityanath said it was his privilege to organise the 바카라Sahibzada Day바카라 programme at the chief minister's residence in 2020, which later evolved into a national-level event in 2022. 

바카라When we move forward with true determination they are definitely fulfilled. The voice emanating from Lucknow became a nationwide one. There was a demand for 바카라Sahibzada Day바카라 for decades, which was fulfilled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi by deciding to celebrate December 26 as Veer Bal Diwas. 

바카라Let us all together take inspiration from our history. Also remember those cruel and dark moments when cruelty was carried out crossing all heights of atrocities and barbarity,바카라 he said.

바카라This is a humble tribute to our Sikh gurus, who inspire us to face challenges,바카라 the chief minister said, and stressed that it is the duty of every Sikh and every Indian to strengthen the foundation laid by Guru Nanak for a prosperous nation.
