New Delhi, Dec 24 (IBNS): Prime Minister  Narendra Modi on Sunday wished the nation on the eve of Gurpurab or the birth anniversary of 10th Sikh Guru Gobind Singh on Monday.

He tweeted: "As we mark the 350th Prakash Parv, I bow to the venerable Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. He was an embodiment of exceptional courage and immense wisdom. His brave deeds and noble thoughts inspire people across generations."
