PM announces 26th December as ‘Veer Baal Diwas’ to mark martyrdom of Sahibzada Zorawar Singh Ji and Sahibzada Fateh Singh Ji
The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi today on the auspicious occasion of the Parkash Purab of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, has announced that starting this year, 26th December shall be observed as ‘Veer Baal Diwas’ to mark the martyrdom of Sahibzada Zorawar Singh Ji and Sahibzada Fateh Singh Ji.
In a series of tweets, the Prime Minister said;
“Today, on the auspicious occasion of the Parkash Purab of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, I am honoured to share that starting this year, 26th December shall be marked as ‘Veer Baal Diwas.’ This is a fitting tribute to the courage of the Sahibzades and their quest for justice.
‘Veer Baal Diwas’ will be on the same day Sahibzada Zorawar Singh Ji and Sahibzada Fateh Singh Ji attained martyrdom after being sealed alive in a wall. These two greats preferred death instead of deviating from the noble principles of Dharma.
The bravery and ideals of Mata Gujri, Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji and the 4 Sahibzades give strength to millions of people. They never bowed to injustice. They envisioned a world that is inclusive and harmonious. It is the need of the hour for more people to know about them.”

ਅੱਜ, ਸ਼੍ਰੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਸ਼ ਪੁਰਬ ਦੇ ਸ਼ੁਭ ਅਵਸਰ ‘ਤੇ, ਮੈਨੂੰ ਇਹ ਦੱਸਦੇ ਹੋਏ ਮਾਣ ਮਹਿਸੂਸ ਹੋ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਇਸ ਵਰ੍ਹੇ ਤੋਂ 26 ਦਸੰਬਰ ਨੂੰ ‘ਵੀਰ ਬਾਲ ਦਿਵਸ’ ਵਜੋਂ ਮਨਾਇਆ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ। ਇਹ ਸਾਹਿਬਜ਼ਾਦਿਆਂ ਦੇ ਸਾਹਸ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੀ ਨਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਖੋਜ ਪ੍ਰਤੀ ਢੁਕਵੀਂ ਸ਼ਰਧਾਂਜਲੀ ਹੈ।
