To show respect, often to the deceased
زمینه فرهنگی
In Gurdwaras, flowers are generally not offered to the Guru Granth Sahib as it is treated as a living Guru, not an idol. However, flowers may be used for decoration (Palki). Offering flowers (Pushpanjali) is a core part of daily Puja. Specific flowers are often associated with specific deities. At Dargahs (shrines), offering a 'Chadar' and flowers is a way to seek blessings from the Pir (saint). In schools and government offices, offering flowers to photos of Bhagat Singh or B.R. Ambedkar is a standard patriotic act.
