Agrahari Sikh

The Agrahari Sikhs are a Sikh community found in Eastern India, including the states of West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand.

Agrahari Sikhs have lived for centuries in Bihar and Jharkhand. In the presence of Guru Sahib, Agraharis adopted the Khalsa Panth for protecting their life and religion.[citation needed] The Agrahari are a sub-group of the Bania (Vaishya) people, traditionally involved in trade, with some Agrahari Banias following Sikhism. Agrahari Sikhs are of a non-Punjabi background.

Agrahari Sikhs are settled in Sasaram, Gaya in Bihar, Kolkata city of West Bengal, Dumari (Hunterganj), Kedli Chatti (of Jharkhand) and even other places of Bihar and Jharkhand. They are also found in some parts of Uttar Pradesh. Agrahari Sikhs maintain separate Gurudwaras in Bihar and West Bengal.
