Sikhs
celebrate New Year
Amritsar: Sikh
devotees visited the Golden Temple in Amritsar to celebrate the beginning of the
Sikh New Year on March 14. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee, which
manages the religious affairs of the Sikhs, has adopted the Nanakshahi calendar
to determine the dates for important Sikh events. Pal Singh Purewal designed the
Nanakhahi calendar to replace the Hindu calendar. It has been in use since 1998.
