Word 'Hindustan' was first used by Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji: RP Singh

NEW-DELHI: An objectionable incident has come to light from Canada's Ontario province, on which political leaders are giving different reactions. Taking this in view, BJP leader R.P. Singh has condemned this incident and has also expressed his reaction on social media. 

Taking to Twitter, R.P. Singh wrote, "As per the records, word 'Hindustan' was first used by Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji in 360 and 723 Ang of Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji."

RP Singh further wrote, "Khalistanis who are demanding a separate land and insulting India, they are disrespecting Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji."

Along with this, the BJP leader has also shared a screenshot of the verses recorded in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. It is worth mentioning here that recently, a Hindu temple was vandalized in the city of Windsor, Ontario and anti-India slogans were also written there.
