VIJAYAWADA: The city of Vijayawada would welcome the �Jagriti Yatra� being organised to mark the tercentenary of Sri Guru Granth Sahebji, the sacred book of the Sikhs and the passing away of Dashmesh Sri Guru Gobind Singhji, the tenth guru of the Sikhs, when it arrives in the city on July 25.
The yatra, which has a decorated vehicle that showcases the ancient, hand-written copy of the holy book and the shastras (weapons) used by the 10th guru and other Sikh martyrs in their �Dharm Yudh� (Righteous war) to protect the Hindu Dharma.
According to Vijayawada Guru Singh Sabha president Harvinder Singh, the yatra would be welcomed at the Benz Circle, from where it would be taken in a procession to Gurunanak Nagar at 7 p.m.
