Spotted this Nihang outside the Visa facilitation office which acts as the liaison office for most of the countries.
Nihang is an order of Sikh warriors, characterised by blue
robes, antiquated arms such as swords and spears, and decorated turbans
surmounted by steel quoits. The order can be traced back to the creation of the
Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh in 1699, according to Sikh historian Dr Balwant
Singh Dhillon.
