(Redirected from Nishaan Sahib)
The Nishan Sahib is a Sikh holy flag made of cotton or silk cloth and is generally triangular in shape.
The Nishan Sahib is placed outside every Sikh Gurdwara and is supported by a pole of timber or metal. The Khanda, a Sikh symbol, is rendered in blue on the saffron background. The Khanda is placed high up on a flagpole as a sign for all that they can come and pray in this building.
The Nishan Sahib is changed every year. The Nishan Sahib is outside every Gurdwara may it be in the U.S., U.K., India or anywhere else.
