Baisakhi has a deep religious meaning for Sikhs. On this day in 1699, the 10th Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh started the Khalsa community in Anandpur Sahib. He told his followers that everyone is equal, and he ended the caste system in Sikhism. He also decalred that after him, the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy book of Sikhs, would be the eternal guide.
Baisakhi is important because it marks the Sikh New year and the beginning of the harvest season. It is a special day for farmers who thank God for a good harvest. For Sikhs, it also remembers the formation of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh in 1699. People celebrate this day with prayers, dance, music and traditional food, showing joy and unity.
