He further said that it is a privilege to see the holy feet of Guru Gobind Singh and his wife Mata Sahib Kaur.

"It is written in Gurbani that wherever the holy feet of Guru Maharaja fall, that place becomes as sacred as the Rama Rajya. It is our good fortune that during the Guru Charan Yatra, we are privileged to have the opportunity to see the holy feet of Guru Maharaja and the holy feet of Guru Sahiba. On this occasion, I express my heartfelt gratitude to Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri as we are attending the 350th martyrdom anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur," Chief Minister Adityanath said.
Highlighting the contributions of the Sikh Gurus to India's spiritual and historical legacy, the Chief Minister said it was an honour to be associated with the Guru Charan Yatra.

The Holy Jore Sahib, a pair of footwear belonging to Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru, and his wife Mata Sahib Kaur, is considered a rare and sacred relic. These precious artifacts have been preserved by Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri's family for over 300 years, symbolising the enduring legacy of the Sikh Gurus.
The "Charan Suhawa - Guru Charan Yatra," which commenced from Gurdwara Moti Bagh Sahib on October 23, is scheduled to conclude at Takht Sri Patna Sahib in Bihar, the birthplace of Guru Gobind Singh, on November 1. (ANI)
