Guru Gobind Singh established the Khalsa on March 30, 1699, at Anandpur Sahib in Punjab, India. During the Vaisakhi festival, he initiated the first five members into the Khalsa, marking the formal creation of a distinct Sikh identity. This event emphasized equality, courage, and the commitment to defend righteousness. The Khalsa became a pivotal aspect of Sikhism, symbolizing spiritual and temporal power.

The Khalsa was formed in 1699 by Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh guru, as a military order of initiated Sikhs who committed to upholding the values of Sikhism and defending the community.
