    Hyderabad: Gurudwaras in Hyderabad are preparing to celebrate the 555th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev, the first Sikh Guru and the founder of Sikhism. This celebration, known as Prakash Utsav, will include several events, including large processions. One of the major events will be a grand Nagar Kirtan (holy procession) organized by the Gurudwara Saheb in Secunderabad on Monday.
