AAP Sikh Ministers, MLAs to Appear Before Akal Takht; Bhagwant Mann Says He Was Not Invited

June 28, 2026

Sikh ministers and MLAs of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government of Punjab will appear at Takht Sri Akal Sahib tomorrow. All the awakened lights will present their side on the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Hospitality (Amendment) Act-2026. During this time, Speaker Kultar Sandhawan will also be accompanying.

CM Bhagwant Mann said that our MLAs and ministers have been called tomorrow on behalf of Takht Sri Akal Sahib. All our MLAs and ministers will go there. Everyone will give their written answer. After this, he will come out and present his side. A written reply has been sought from some ministers, he will give it in writing. We bow to the supremacy of the Akal Takht. I also went there leaving the President’s program.

He said that I have not been called to the Akal Takht. The fake video of the person who imitated me wearing my mask will also be handed over to Sri Akal Takht Sahib along with the letter. The Chief Minister said these things during a press conference in Amritsar on Sunday. AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal was also present with him.

Let us tell you that the Akal Takht does not agree with the new law made by the AAP government regarding sacrilege in Punjab. An explanation will be sought from these ministers and MLAs as to why they approved it.

A temple of Luvkush and Mata Janaki will be built in Amritsar Arvind Kejriwal said that we have decided that a grand temple will be built in the name of Luvkush and Mata Janaki in Amritsar. Amritsar is the holiest land in the whole world. There are people and institutions here of every religion. We will work out later for the details of the temple etc.

Kejriwal said- small people caught in the Ram temple donation theft case He said that only small people have been caught in the Ram temple donation theft case. Left the big ones. The money counter and the watchman have been caught. The 8 people who were caught, their police remand was not even taken. They were sent to jail. They will be bailed in 2-4 days. Everything is an attempt to cover up this case. It seems that this is a big theft. An allegation is that 200 crores were stolen and the recovery has been only 80 lakhs.

Why were the ministers and MLAs summoned? According to Panch Singh Sahiban, the Punjab government passed the Jagat Jyot Sri Guru Granth Sahib Reception (Amendment) Act-2026 without consulting the central Sikh institutions. Also, the objections raised by Sri Akal Takht Sahib were also ignored. Since this law was approved by the Punjab Cabinet and the Assembly, the Sikh ministers of the Punjab government and Sikh MLAs of various political parties have been summoned to appear at the Sri Akal Takht Sahib Secretariat on 29 June 2026 for questioning.
