PM Modi and the Govind Ramayan controversy
PM Modi had made a mention of Shri Guru Gobind Ji's Gobind Ramayan during his address at the Bhoomi Poojan of the Ram Janmbhoomi on August 5, 2020. However, the statement was criticized by many and it was said that the Sikh guru never wrote anything as such, with some even staging protests.
Guru Gobind Singh was the tenth and last of Sikh gurus in human form. He was enthroned at the 'Guru Gaddi' at the age of 9 after his father Guru Tej Bahadur Ji, the 9th Guru. A spiritual master, warrior, poet, and philosopher, Guru Gobind Singh was born in 1666 in Patna. The divine messenger transformed the Sikh religion into what it is at present with the institution of the Khalsa solidarity. Sahib Ji completed the sacred scripture, the Guru Granth Sahib Ji, in the final form that he ordained as the next and perpetual Guru of the Sikhs, ANI.
The book has now been published by the Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA).
