3) Gurmat Baana: Ideally Khalsa should wear Chola and Kachherra but historically we see that prominent Sikh figures and personalities also wore Gurmat style Kurta Pajama, Achkan etc. Akali Kaur Singh jee Nihung, who was considered the jathedar of all Nihungs used to wear Achkan most of the times. He led Nihung Dals at the time of Holla Mahalla.

"The following was found in a old newspaper describing the yearly gathering of the Central Sikh League in October 1920 .
On one side of the hall, the daughters of Mata Sahib Kaur were appearing. At this, our royal meeting, the Singhnis present appeared to the Panth in the image of Mai Bhago. From amongst them, Bibi Kartar Kaur jee (wife of Bhai Randhir Singh ji) was in the uniform of an Akali of old. It was said that she was in truth the picture of a female Singh of ancient times" [Akali Newspaper, October 23, 1920, page 2]
Mata jee was dressed like an Akali of Guru Sahib's time in a chola and dumalla and shastar. What an amazing sight it must have been

I was talking to another Singh today and he was mentioning to me that Kurta Pajama cannot be classified as Baana. I told him I consider it to be Baana because it simple clothing which is very much like chola the only major difference is the pajama.He then classified Kurta Pajama as " a western creation", and " an Indian national dress". He further explained that many Hindus and Muslims were Kurta Pajamey, while only Sikhs wear the warrior Baana ( chola).

I myself have not yet been blessed with full bana, but I do hope to one day wear the full dress of the Khalsa... I don't feel that I deserve it yet, and I'm waiting for my Guru's kirpa.

So is it right to act and dress like khalsa if we are not really khalsa on the inside?
The reality is in pratan times as soon as you shakked amrit jot prakash would appear, but this doesn't really happen nowadays.
