Why is Veer Bal Diwas celebrated?
Guru Gobind Singh had four sons from three wives, namely Ajit, Jujhar, Zorawar and Fateh. They are also called Sahibzade. On 26 December 1705, all four sons were murdered by the Mughal army. To honor their martyrdom, PM Modi had announced to celebrate Veer Bal Diwas on 26 December in 2022. Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s sons were pressurized to convert. Instead he chose martyrdom.
