Veer Bal Diwas is celebrated every year on 26 December.
This day is celebrated in memory of the martyrdom of two sons of Sikh Guru Gobind Singh.
The names of Guru Gobind Singh's two sons were Sahibzade Baba Zorawar Singh Ji and Baba Fateh Singh Ji.
Anandpur Sahib was besieged by Mughal troops on the orders of Emperor Aurangzeb in the year 1704 AD.
In this incident, two sons of Guru Gobind Singh were captured.
They were told not to kill them if they became Muslims.
Both of them rejected this offer, due to which they were given death sentence and were thrown into a brick wall alive.
The announcement to celebrate this day was made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
This day was celebrated for the first time in the year 2022.
The second edition of Bir Bal Diwas is being celebrated in the year 2023.
