‘Gurpurab’ is the most important and sacred festival of the Sikh community. In which of the following months of the Hindu

calendar is it celebrated?

Jyaistha

Kartik

Shravana

Vaisakha

- Gurpurab is a significant Sikh festival that celebrates the birth anniversaries of the Sikh Gurus, particularly Guru Nanak and Guru Gobind Singh.

- The festival usually involves prayer, processions, and community service.

- It is celebrated according to the Nanakshahi calendar, which aligns closely with the Hindu lunar calendar.

- Each year, Guru Nanak Jayanti, one of the most celebrated Gurpurabs, usually falls in the month of Kartik.

- Option 1: Jyaistha - This is a summer month in the Hindu calendar, typically falling around May-June. Gurpurab isn't celebrated during this time.

- Option 2: Kartik - This month corresponds to October-November and is indeed when Guru Nanak Jayanti is celebrated.

- Option 3: Shravana - A monsoon month in the Hindu calendar, around July-August. Not the time for Gurpurab.

- Option 4: Vaisakha - This is a spring month, around April-May. Not typically associated with Gurpurab.

Thus, the correct answer is Kartik.
