Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said India needs to break free from the “narrow views” of the past to take the country to heights of success.

Speaking at the first ‘Veer Bal Diwas’ event, Modi paid tributes to Zorawar Singh and Fateh Singh, Guru Gobind Singh’s sons who laid down their lives while defending their faith.

“On the one hand there was terrorism and on the other spiritualism. On one hand there was communal violence while on the other there was liberalism. On one hand there were forces of lakhs while on the other there were just Veer Sahibzaade who did not budge at all,” he said referring to the two martyred children of the Guru.
