Sikh Nationalism

Sikh nationalism is a movement advocating for the political and cultural rights of Sikhs, emphasizing the preservation of their religious identity, language, and heritage. Originating from a desire for self-determination, it seeks to promote Sikh interests within India and worldwide, often stressing the importance of a distinct Sikh community (Khalsa) and sometimes demanding a separate homeland or autonomous region. While rooted in the protection of Sikh values and rights, it also reflects broader aspirations for social justice, cultural pride, and safeguarding Sikh traditions amid historical and societal challenges.
