Final answer:

The Khalsa Panth was created in Anandpur Sahib in 1699 by Guru Gobind Singh during the Vaisakhi festival.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Khalsa Panth was created in Anandpur Sahib in 1699. Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru, established the Khalsa Panth on April 13, 1699, during the Vaisakhi festival. The Panth (community) was created as a martial sect within Sikhism to defend against religious persecution and uphold the principles of Sikhism. By initiating the first group of five Sikhs into the Khalsa, Guru Gobind Singh laid the foundation for a distinct identity and code of conduct for Sikhs.
