It used to be 13th of April , why are we celebrating it on 14th this year? Nanaksahi calender?

[Panjaban4eva]

i didn't know it was originally on the 30th either until i saw it on http://www.sikhnet.com/sikhnet/register.ns...BaisakhiHistory

"On Baisakhi Day, March 30, 1699, hundreds of thousands of people gathered around his divine temporal seat at Anandpur Sahib. The Guru addressed the congregants with a most stirring oration on his divine mission of restoring their faith and preserving the Sikh religion..."

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

i always though acording to the Nanaksahi calender, bhasaki fell on either april13 or the 14th

I think most of it is because of conversion from the indian calander to the modern Gregorian calander (correct me if i'm wrong).
