June 14 marks the Shaheedi Diwas or the martyrdom day of Guru Arjan Dev Ji. Guru Arjan Dev Ji was the first martyr of the Sikh religion. He is known for being the first to compile the Sikh scripture, ‘Adi Granth’.
In his honour, Pallavi Aware International School had organised a ‘Shraddhanjali’, calling upon the students and the parents to join the program in his memory. The program began by invoking the Gods through the singing of slokas by the students. The students then spoke about the greatness of Guru Arjan. They went on to talk about his contributions to the Sikh religion and the scripture.
A video was played showing the life story of Guru Arjan, his struggles, and his significance to the Indian martyrdom. This same video was then broadcasted in the local languages.
