what is sikh
A Sikh (/siËk, sÉªk/ ; Punjabi: à¨¸à¨¿à©±à¨ sikkh [sÉªkkÊ°]) is a follower of Sikhism, a monotheistic dharma which originated during the 15th century in the Punjab region of South Asia.ikh properly refers to adherents of Sikhism as a religion, not an ethnic group. However, because Sikhism has seldom sought converts, most Sikhs share strong ethno-religious ties. Many countries, such as the United Kingdom, therefore recognize Sikh as a designated ethnicity on their censuses.
