Baisakhi is the harvest festival of North India where believers bathe in holy rivers and welcome the new year. Baisakhi has special meaning for the Sikhs as their guru Gobind Singhji formed the Khalsa sect on the day of Baisakhi in 1699. There are lavish celebrations for Baisakhi in Jammu and Kashmir as there are a good number of Sikhs living here.
