Punjab’s R-Day tableau to showcase Delhi’s Sis Ganj Gurdwara

Chandigarh: Punjab govt's tableau for the Republic Day parade is a unique blend of spirituality and the selfless spirit of sacrifice to uphold the lofty ideals of humanity, compassion and religious values, said an official spokesperson. The tableau comprises 2 portions — Tractor and Trailer. The tractor portion of the tableau comprises a symbol of a hand exuding a spiritual aura, signifying the humanitarian and compassionate approach, the celestial ‘Ek Onkar' depicted in a revolving manner in front, and a piece of cloth with ‘Hind Di Chadar' embossed on the same, symbolising protection for those seeking shelter from oppression. The trailer part incorporates the "Shabad Kirtan" held by Raagi Singhs, with a monument of "Khanda Sahib" in the background, lending a transcendental colour to the surroundings. This place is right in front of Gurudwara Sri Sis Ganj Sahib in Delhi. The Shabad Kirtan at this chowk or square is a daily ritual. At the edge of the trailer portion is Gurudwara Sri Sis Ganj Sahib, the place where the Ninth Sikh Guru, Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji, was martyred. MSID:: 127171824 413 |
