Happy Vaisakhi


Farmers in the northern part of India celebrate the festival of Baisakhi and the celebrations of this festival can be enjoyed in Punjab and Haryana. It is a festival of harvest, as harvesting of Rabi crop occurs on this day and farmers thereby celebrate this day by performing several rituals and customs associated with it to thank God for high yield of crops. It is also said that in 1699 Guru Gobind Sing ji founded the Khalsa Panth on this day and therefore this day has a special place in the life of Sikhs
