A Bengali translation of the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy book of the Sikh religion, was released by former President Pranab Mukherjee on Friday.
The book in five volumes was released at a programme held at the Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture, Golpark, here.
It took four years for Chayon Ghosh and Jhuma Ghosh to translate the book.
The event also marks the 550th birth centenary celebration of Guru Nanak.
Mukherjee spoke about the importance of the Guru Granth Sahib which is treated as a living God by Sikhs.
