Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi extended Guru Purnima greetings to the citizens of India through the Prime Minister's Office press release and his social media account. He emphasized that teachers not only impart knowledge but also infuse students with positive energy while shaping them through noble thoughts and values. The Prime Minister called upon people to make the ideals of their gurus a guiding force in their lives. He shared a Sanskrit subhashitam (wise saying) that defines six forms of a guru: one who provides direction (prerakah), indicates the path (suchakah), imparts knowledge (vachakah), shows the righteous path (darshakah), offers education (shikshakah), and awakens understanding of truth (bodhakah). The message was posted on July 29, 2026, as part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav commemorations.
