October 5, 2025

Chandigarh: Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann arrived in Sri Anandpur Sahib, where he first inaugurated the Bhai Jaita Ji Museum and inspected the museum. He then paid obeisance at Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib. Speaking to the media, he said that a community that remembers its heritage survives.

He spoke in detail about Bhai Jaita Ji’s struggle. He said that Heritage Street contains information related to the Khalsa. Soon, teachers from Punjab will be honored.

The program was delayed due to floods.

The Education Department organizes this event every year on September 5th, but this year, due to severe flooding in the state, the government postponed the Teachers’ Day celebration and announced a later date. The event is now being held in the historic city of Sri Anandpur Sahib.

During this period, 55 teachers will be given State Teacher Award, 10 teachers will be given Young Teacher Award, three will be given Special Award and three will be given Managerial Award.

Teachers will only be asked to do teaching work.

During the Aam Aadmi Party government’s tenure, government schools have undergone numerous improvements. At a cost of approximately ₹2,000 crore, 1,200 kilometers of boundary walls and 13,000 new classrooms have been constructed in 8,000 schools. Additionally, facilities such as bathrooms, Wi-Fi access, and school guards have been added to schools.

118 schools in the state have been declared ‘Schools of Eminence’

118 schools in the state have been designated “Schools of Eminence,” and a “Schools of Brilliance” initiative has also been launched. Teachers have also been sent to Singapore for training to learn modern teaching techniques. School results have improved, with results for exams like NEET and JEE Advanced being very good.

The Education Minister has clearly stated that teachers will only be required to teach, and they will not be required to perform any other tasks.
