CM Bhagwant Mann Leads Commemoration of the 350th Martyrdom Year of Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji
The Punjab Government, under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, has emphasized making this three-day commemoration a meaningful and inclusive tribute. The events aim to highlight Guru Sahib’s message of religious freedom, universal brotherhood, and sacrifice for humanity. Special arrangements have been made to welcome devotees, scholars, historians, and tourists from across India and overseas.
Along with spiritual ceremonies, the celebrations will feature heritage walks, exhibitions, poetic recitations, Gatka performances, and drone shows to showcase Punjab’s rich Sikh heritage. The historic town of Anandpur Sahib will be illuminated with devotional fervour, with major sites like Virasat-e-Khalsa, Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib, Bhai Jaita Ji Memorial and Baba Buddha Dal Chhauni becoming the central hubs for the events.
Another key highlight is the Statewide Blood Donation Drive and Plantation Drive
Another key highlight is the Statewide Blood Donation Drive and Plantation Drive, symbolizing the values of service (seva), compassion, and environmental responsibility that Guru Sahib stood for. A special session of the Punjab Vidhan Sabha dedicated to Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji will also be held, marking an important moment in the state’s legislative and cultural history.
Devotees are encouraged to participate in the Nagar Kirtan, Gurbani Kirtan Darbars, Sarv Dharm Sammelan, and guided heritage tours to understand the deep spiritual significance of Anandpur Sahib—the birthplace of the Khalsa and the seat of Sikh history.
As Punjab, the nation, and people across the world unite to honour the Hind Di Chadar, these programs will serve as a reminder of Guru Sahib’s supreme martyrdom for protecting faith and humanity.
