Let us tell you that Guru Tegh Bahadur was born in the year 1621 in Amritsar. In the year 1675, a group of Kashmiri Pandits approached him and said that the then Mughal emperor Aurangzeb was forcing him to convert to Islam. On this, Guru Tegh Bahadur said that go to Aurangzeb and tell him that if he makes me accept Islam, then we too will become Muslims. After this Guru Tegh Bahadur went to Delhi. Where Aurangzeb committed all the atrocities on him and his companions. After which he was martyred on a mound in front of the Red Fort. The place where Guru Tegh Bahadur gave his martyrdom in Delhi is now the Shishganj Gurdwara. The special thing is that Aurangzeb is also going to get an answer from today’s program, because the Red Fort in which he sat and ordered the martyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur and his companions, in the same Red Fort, the Prakash Parv of Guru Maharaj is being celebrated.
