Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to participate in the nationwide Veer Baal Diwas celebrations on Thursday at New Delhi's Bharat Mandapam. The event, scheduled to begin around noon, will highlight the crucial role of children as the building blocks of India’s future.

'Today, on Veer Baal Diwas, we remember the unparalleled bravery and sacrifice of the Sahibzades. At a young age, they stood firm in their faith and principles, inspiring generations with their courage. Their sacrifice is a shining example of valour and a commitment to one’s values. We also remember the bravery of Mata Gujri Ji and Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. May they always guide us towards building a more just and compassionate society," PM Modi wrote in a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday.

The Prime Minister will launch the Suposhit Gram Panchayat Abhiyan during the event, informed a press release from the Prime Minister's Office. This initiative is designed to enhance nutritional outcomes and overall well-being by strengthening the delivery of nutrition services and ensuring active community participation.


The PMO's release further mentioned that a range of initiatives will be organised across the country to engage young minds, raise awareness about the significance of Veer Baal Diwas, and foster a culture of courage, service, and dedication to the nation.

To involve children and youth, a series of online competitions, including interactive quizzes, will be held through the MyGov and MyBharat portals. Additionally, schools, Child Care Institutions, and Anganwadi centres will organize activities like storytelling, creative writing, and poster-making.

Awardees of the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar (PMRBP) will also be honoured at the program.
