Bhiwandi, Feb 14: The Bhiwandi Nizampur City Municipal Corporation (BNCMC) has launched a series of awareness initiatives across its civic schools to commemorate the 350th martyrdom year of Guru Tegh Bahadur, revered as the ‘Hind-di-Chadar’ for his supreme sacrifice in defence of faith and human rights.
Educational and cultural initiatives
As part of the observance, various educational and cultural programmes are being organised to familiarise students with the life, teachings and martyrdom of the ninth Sikh Guru. The initiatives aim to instil values of courage, sacrifice, communal harmony and national unity among the younger generation.
Students participated enthusiastically in prabhat pheris (morning processions), raising slogans and spreading awareness about Guru Tegh Bahadur’s contribution to safeguarding religious freedom. Teachers briefed students on inspiring episodes from his life, underlining his steadfast commitment to justice and humanity.
Films and music highlight legacy
Short films based on his life and legacy were screened in schools to provide deeper insight into his historic sacrifice. Students were also shown the inspirational song ‘Hind-di-Chadar’ rendered by noted Punjabi singer Satinder Sartaaj, which resonated strongly with the audience.
At Municipal School No. 47, a special prabhat pheri was organised, followed by a film screening and an essay competition centred on the Guru’s life and teachings. Students turned out in large numbers, reflecting keen interest and active participation in the commemorative events.
