Question

Accepted Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Identify each option:
   - (1) Hola Mohalla — a Sikh martial festival established by Guru Gobind Singh, held after Holi.
   - (2) Baisakhi — a harvest festival and also marks formation of Khalsa (Vaisakhi) but not Guru Nanak's birth.
   - (3) Gurpurab — the term for celebrations marking the birth or death anniversaries of the Sikh Gurus; specifically, Guru Nanak Jayanti is a Gurpurab.
   - (4) Chappar Mela — a regional fair, not the Guru's birth anniversary.

2. Guru Nanak Dev Jayanti is celebrated as a Gurpurab (also called Guru Nanak Gurpurab), observed on $Kartik\ Purnima$ (the full moon day of the Kartik month) according to the Nanakshahi/Lunar calendar.

3. Therefore the correct choice is option (3) — Gurpurab.
