Union Home Minister Amit Shah also shared his wishes, highlighting the essential role of Gurus in both society and national development.
गुरु किसी भी समाज व राष्ट्र के विकास के प्रमुख वाहक होते हैं। वर्षों के तप, शोध व अनुभव से प्राप्त ज्ञान से वे शिष्यों को अंधकार से प्रकाश की ओर ले जाने और उनमें चरित्र निर्माण व राष्ट्रप्रेम के बीज बोने का काम करते हैं।

“Gurus are the main carriers of the development of any society or nation. With the knowledge gained from years of penance, research, and experience, they take disciples from darkness to light and sow the seeds of character-building and patriotism in them. On the auspicious occasion of Guru Purnima, I pay my tribute to all such Gurus and wish ‘Guru Purnima’ to all the countrymen,” Shah said.
