Two members of the Indian Sikh “Nihang” – the traditional Sikh army – balance on four horses as they demonstrate their skills during a Fateh Divas celebration which takes place the day after the Diwali festival, in Amritsar on October 31, 2016. The Sikh celebration of the return of the sixth Guru Hargobind from detention in the Gwalior Fort, known as Bandi Chhorh Divas and which coincides with the Hindu festival of Diwali, marks the day Guru Hargobind had agreed to his release on the condition that the other fifty-two vassal kings who were detainees would also be released.
