Baisakhi 2025: Celebrating the Sikh New Year and the Spirit of Harvest with Joy and Unity

Baisakhi, celebrated on April 13, 2025, marks not only the beginning of the harvest season in Punjab and surrounding regions but also the Sikh New Year. This auspicious day holds deep religious and cultural significance, especially for the Sikh community, as it commemorates the formation of the Khalsa Panth by Guru Gobind Singh Ji in 1699.

Celebrations across Punjab and other states are vibrant and full of life. Traditional dances like Bhangra and Gidda, colourful processions, and community feasts (langars) are integral parts of the day. Gurdwaras are adorned with flowers and lights, hosting special prayers to honour the values of courage, unity, and faith introduced by the Khalsa.

The day is also a celebration of agricultural prosperity, with farmers offering thanks for a successful harvest of rabi crops, especially wheat. In rural and urban areas alike, melas (fairs) and cultural programmes enhance the festive atmosphere, drawing large crowds and fostering communal harmony.

As people across India and abroad celebrate this day, here are 15 heartfelt Baisakhi messages being widely shared:
