Was Baba Banda Bahadur Sikh or Hindu
Some modern-day Sikhs claim a false delineation and one example of that is claiming that Baba Banda Bahadur, who is revered both by Sikhs and Punjabi Hindus, converted to Sikhi and was no longer a Hindu.
Here are some facts counter to that
-
Banda was told that he
never took Khande ka Phaul and he replies that he cannot eat meat since he is a vegetarian. This incident is mentioned in Panth Prakash
Banda Bairagi changed Sikh slogan Waheguru to his own Fateh Darshan. He remarked that Khalsa Sikhs deserved to be finished as recorded in
Sri Gur Panth Prakash (page 339)
