New Delhi, September 19: Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to social media to express his heartfelt appreciation for a distinguished Sikh delegation that met him to submit recommendations regarding the safekeeping and dignified display of the sacred โ€˜Jore Sahibโ€™โ€”a pair of holy footwear attributed to Sri Guru Gobind Singh and Mata Sahib Kaur.

In a post on X, PM Modi wrote, โ€œI was very happy to receive the distinguished and accomplished members of the Sikh delegation who handed over their recommendations with regard to the safekeeping and befitting display of the immensely sacred and invaluable holy โ€˜Jore Sahibโ€™ of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Mata Sahib Kaur Ji.โ€ย Blue Economy Is Central to Indiaโ€™s Growth, Sustainability and National Strength, Says PM Narendra Modi.

The delegation, led by Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, included eminent members of the Sikh Sangat who have long safeguarded the relics. The โ€˜Jore Sahibโ€™โ€”footwear measuring 11 inches by 3.5 inches for Guru Gobind Singh and 9 inches by 3 inches for Mata Sahib Kaur โ€”has been preserved by the Puri family for over 300 years.

Carbon testing was conducted by the Ministry of Culture to verify the relicsโ€™ authenticity and spiritual significance. During the meeting, renowned singer Harshdeep Kaur offered a soulful rendition of the Mool Mantra, adding a spiritual resonance to the occasion.

PM Modi, covering his head in respect, listened attentively as the mantra echoed through the hall. The Prime Ministerโ€™s tweet reflects his continued engagement with Sikh heritage and his commitment to preserving religious and cultural treasures. His gesture was widely appreciated by the community, reinforcing the governmentโ€™s dedication to inclusive cultural stewardship. As plans for the public display of the โ€˜Jore Sahibโ€™ move forward, the meeting stands as a powerful symbol of reverence, unity, and the enduring legacy of the Sikh Gurus in shaping Indiaโ€™s moral and spiritual fabric.
