Samuh Sadh Sangat nu Bandi Chhorh Divas di lakh lakh vadhai hoye

Sikhs do not celebrate Diwali but celebrations take place at this time as Diwali coincides with the Sikh celebration of Bandi Chhorh Divas. This coincidence has resulted in similarity of celebrations amongst Sikhs and Hindus.

Sikhs celebrate Bandi Chhorh Divas to mark the return of the Sixth Guru, Guru Hargobind Ji, who was freed from imprisonment and also managed to release 52 Hindu Kings (political prisoners) at the same time from the famous fort of Gwalior by Emperor Jahangir in October, 1619.

And so the Kings/rajahs were freed and the Guru became known popularly as the "Bandi Chhor" (Deliverer from prison). He arrived at Amritsar on the Diwali day and the HarMandar (also known as the "Golden Temple") was lit with hundreds of lamps to celebrate his return and hence the day came to be known as the "Bandi Chhor Divas" (the day of freedom).
