There is an old custom in India to feed the poor and needy to their heart's content. The followers of the Hindu religion call it Bhandare or Pangat, and in Sikhism, it is known as Langar.
According to the beliefs of Sikhism, every person visiting the Gurudwara must be fed food in the langar equally without any discrimination.
According to the scriptures, the first Guru of Sikhs, Guru Nanak Dev was the first one to start the tradition of 'Kada Prasad'.
The legend says that Guru Nanak Dev’s father gave him ₹20 to start a business. But instead, he bought food items with that and distributed them among the needy. He told his father that there is no greater business than feeding the poor and getting their precious blessings.
