The Vaishakhi Sankranti moment will take place at 9:30 PM on April 13.

Why Baisakhi Is Celebrated? 

Baisakhi holds great importance for both farmers and Sikhs. It celebrates the harvest of the Rabi crop, making it a joyful time for farmers to thank God for a good harvest. 

For Sikhs, Baisakhi is deeply religious. In 1699, the 10th Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh, founded the Khalsa Panth (the community of committed Sikhs) in Anandpur Sahib, Punjab. On this day, he also announced that the Guru Granth Sahib would be the eternal guide for Sikhs, ending the tradition of human Gurus. He promoted equality by removing caste differences within the Sikh community.

How People Celebrate Baisakhi

On Baisakhi, people visit Gurudwaras to offer prayers and take part in kirtans (devotional singing) and langars (community meals). Families gather for celebrations, prepare delicious food, and enjoy traditional Punjabi dishes like kada prasad, kadhi, and meethe peele chawal. Folk dances like Bhangra and Gidda are performed, and many cultural events and fairs are held.
