Punjab’s getting ready like never before for the 350th birthday of Guru Teg Bahadur Ji - big parades and local gatherings are popping up everywhere to honor the moment. In cities such as Jalandhar, Ludhiana, and Amritsar, officials boosted roads, tightened checks, also made space for prayers so crowds can join without hassle. Teams on the ground checked paths beforehand, sent police units out, then teamed up with Sikh groups either way just to keep things peaceful wherever people march.
To mark 350 years since Guru Teg Bahadur Ji was born, Jalandhar’s main area will see a Nagar Kirtan on November 22, 2025. As per a note from the Deputy Commissioner's office, multiple Sikh groups are joining this midday event starting at noon. Security will be handled by top authorities like the DC and SSP, who’ll keep things running smoothly. Locals are being asked to pitch in so everything stays calm; extra steps have been taken for managing vehicles and people flow. Besides that, several gurdwaras and learning centers tied to Sikhism will take part - bringing everyone together in honor of his legacy.
Punjab's government made Nov 2025 a month to honor martyrs - each day includes kirtan, prayer sessions, also seva setups at gurdwaras across the region. Around 1.2 million people joined already; there are over 500 no-cost service centers running daily meals. Schools plus colleges started teaching about Guru Teg Bahadur Ji’s journey and beliefs - it’s now part of their required lessons. Top officials like ministers and local lawmakers stepped in as volunteers, helping organize activities along with worship routines.
Sri Anandpur Sahib kicks off a big three-day event running November 23 through 25. Around ten million people are expected to show up, so they’ve set up three Tent Cities - each holding thousands each day - and cleared more than 100 acres just for parking. To help folks move around, buses run nonstop from every nearby tehsil, while e-rickshaws and small shuttles zip visitors across town. Events feature continuous scripture readings, guided history trails, art exhibits, special legislative meetings, plus live Dhadi and Kawishar music acts. There’ll also be poetry nights, plays, and Gatka fights showing traditional warrior skills. Shows with lights, sound, and storytelling bring to life the courage and journey of Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib Ji.
The Punjab CM, Bhagwant Mann, along with top cops, checked on safety and planning - extra officers were sent out while local command centers popped up to manage crowds. Medical help will run nonstop, traffic flow’ll be guided, waste cleanup kept steady during the whole gathering.
Punjab getting ready isn't just local - it's pulling in Sikhs everywhere plus anyone who stands up for basic rights, all coming together to remember Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Ji. Officials, well-known figures, along with faith guides, are reaching out personally, urging folks to take part because this moment shines as proof of standing strong, living free, and giving everything for others.
These detailed plans along with religious meetings aim to turn the 350th anniversary of Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Ji into a key moment in Punjab’s past, highlighting devotion, bravery, also selfless service.
