Sikhs

Sikhs are followers of Sikhism, a monotheistic religion that originated in the Punjab region of India around the 15th century. Founded by Guru Nanak Dev Ji and developed through a succession of nine other Gurus, Sikhism emphasizes devotion to one God, equality, community service, and justice. Sikhs have distinct cultural practices, including the wearing of turbans and maintaining uncut hair as symbols of their faith. The central religious scripture is the Guru Granth Sahib, which contains hymns and teachings. Sikhs celebrate festivals like Vaisakhi and operate the practice of Langar, providing free meals to all, regardless of background.
