That's a good question. I don't think it says anywhere that the Kacherra HAS to be white. Its another one of those things that was done out of convienience and tradition (underwear was white), but I doubt paramathma judges people based on the color of their underwear :wub:

The painting must be inaccurate. According to Khalsa traditions, a kacherra MUST be white. Nihangs will never ever wear a blue kacherra as this is a very disrespectful place to be wearing it. If a nihang catches a "Singh" wearing blue kacherra, he is in serious trouble. Blue is a "shiromani" colour and meant only for head and cholas. A kacherra, even according to old rehitnamas must be only white. The reasons are pretty self explanatory.
