Pakistan Punjab Assembly approves resolution to make Guru Nanak's birthday a public holiday

[Rafi]

Pakistan was existing in 1439??!! Guru nanak day is a holiday and celebrated in India since time immemorial.

Yes - in Nankana Sahib - Pakistani Punjab

That still doesn't make sense, anyone can convert to Sikhism. Will they automatically become Pakistani?

It does make sense.Pakistani by default mean that they aka the sikh will feel closer toward majority of the pakistanis than indians

Yes - in Nankana Sahib - Pakistani Punjab

There wasnt anything called Pakistan in 1439.

If they feel closer towards Pakistanis then why did they choose India? I only need to ask the Sikhs in the UK who they feel closer to. If anything, they are closest to Punjabi Hindus.

A welcome step ...

But Nankana Sahib - is in Pakistan - today, is it not? And there was no country called india in 1439 either.

Yes there was. One that Columbus was looking for

Good initiative. Time to give other minorities such as Hindus and Christians their holidays as well. It's their birth right as being Pakistani.

Yaar bechare sikh ese hi visa lete hai, tell them Nankana is in India after all.

There was thing called Punjab which still exist to this day. Pakistan is combination of 5 provinces, and its combined history as one.

More Sikhs visit Golden Temple than Nankana Sahib. Majority have never been to Nankana Sahib which is quite sad.

india is a geo-graphical term - nothing more - nothing less, the term South Asia, is the one in vogue now.

He was a Punjabi, most Punjabi's are Pakistani, also most of the land mass of Punjab is in Pakistan.

Most Sikhs are Indians. There wasnt even a geography called Pakistan.

Thousands of Sikh yatris come every year to Pakistan to visit their holy sites, my sister in law joins in too, she is present in feeding the pilgrims - to please Wahe Guru.
