The Nishan Sahib is a flag that represents the Sikh faith. It features a blue background with a symbol called the Khanda, which includes a double-edged sword, a circular emblem, and two single-edged swords. The flag is often displayed outside Gurdwaras, which are places of worship for Sikhs, and serves as a symbol of the Sikh community and its values. The Nishan Sahib is not just a flag; it also holds spiritual significance. It symbolizes the sovereignty and identity of the Sikh people. The flag is usually made of durable fabric and is raised high on a flagpole, signifying the presence of the Sikh faith in the area.
