#EYSikhCommunity#Vaisakhi2021
Vaisakhi signifies the creation of the Khalsa panth by Guru Gobind Singh Ji in 1699.
Traditionally, the occasion of Vaisakhi is marked around the world with Nagar Kirtans (processions). Amongst the current climate, Vaisakhi will be celebrated a little differently this year.
The evening will be rounded off with a Q&A session where audience members will have the opportunity to send in their questions for Raj.
