“Khao Pio, Baisakhi diyan Mauj manao???

Happy baishakhi

 

With the onset of summers and the harvesting of the Rabi crops, there is ecstasy in the air. 14th April called as Baisakhi marks the 1st date of the Hindu calendar which is one of the most auspicious day for Hindus. Baisakhi is celebrated with full zeal in the state of Punjab. Spiritually, for Sikh community, on the occasion of Baisakhi, Guru Gobind singh ji laid the foundation of Khalsa at Kesargarh at Anandpur in 1699.

Baisakhi is celebrated with a lot of pomp and show among the Punjabis. People get together after the harvest, sing folk songs, dance, thank the God and most importantly – EAT GOOD FOOD! The color yellow is of great significance on Bisakhi as it represents joy! People ador themselves in beautiful colourful shades of yellow and eat yellow coloured foods like kaddi rice, yellow sweet rice, jalebi. Lassi and more. Like any Indian festival, food is an iconic part of the Baisakhi celebration. Punjabi cuisine such as sarson da saag, chhole bhature, pindi chane, are all a traditional Baisakhi feast.
