The President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee in his message on the occasion of the martyrdom day of Guru Teg Bahadur, which falls tomorrow, has said, "Guru Teg Bahadur's Martyrdom Day is a solemn occasion to remember the glory of his sacrifice. Guru Teg Bahadur was a selfless, courageous leader who taught all of us to seek strength from truth, worship and knowledge.

This should be a day of contemplation - of considering the importance of selfless service, and the strength to stand for what is right.

Let us draw inspiration from the teachings of the great Guru and strive to be worthy of his noble legacy".
