Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini visited Ludhiana on Sunday to attend the 9th Mahan Kirtan Darbar organised near the petrol pump at Amar Pura Chowk to mark the occasion of the Prakash Purab of Guru Amar Das. Saini bowed before the Guru and joined the congregation in listening to Gurbani, praying for peace, prosperity and harmony in society. A large number of devotees participated in the event.

During his address, Saini said the Congress party was on the verge of extinction, struggling to secure seats across the country. He described Captain Amarinder Singh as a member of his family and said they would together form the government in Punjab.

Saini accused the Congress of exploiting Punjab during its rule and increasing corruption and drug problems in the state. He criticised the Aam Aadmi Party for showing false dreams to people and worsening their condition. He alleged that law and order had deteriorated under the AAP government and Punjab was faceing a grim situation because of its leadership. “Seeing no future, businessmen are fleeing from Punjab and moving to other states," he added.

During the event, Guru Amar Das Seva Society honoured CM Saini with a siropa and a memento. He highlighted Guru Amar Das’s teachings of humanity, service and equality, stressing their relevance in uniting society and inspiring welfare. He also announced a contribution of Rs 5 lakh towards land acquisition plans near the gurdwara sahib.
