==Origin of sacrament==
The introduction of this religious rite is traced by Hazuri Sikhs to Guru Hargobind.〔 It is said that this sacrifice was also performed by Guru Gobind Singh on the founding day of the Khalsa on his own followers.〔Transition of Sikhism into a political organization, pp 79, Gokul Chand Narang,Printed at the "Tribune" press, 1910〕 It should be kept in mind certain sections of modern Sikhs do not approve of this sacrificial ritual.〔〔WORLD SIKH CONFERENCE - SYDNEY 2004, A REPORT, pp 6.
