Patiala to Witness Rs 70 Crore Guru Teg Bahadur Heritage Boost
The Punjab government has announced a significant allocation of Rs 70 crore for the development of 35 sites in Patiala associated with Guru Teg Bahadur. This initiative aims to enhance the historical and religious significance of these locations.
The move comes ahead of the commemorative events marking the 350th martyrdom anniversary of Guru Teg Bahadur, beginning November 19, 2025. These events will include several yatras converging at Anandpur Sahib, with a planned stopover in Patiala.
The substantial investment underscores the state government’s commitment to preserving and promoting the rich Sikh heritage. The development projects are expected to attract pilgrims and boost tourism in the region.
This initiative not only holds religious importance but also promises a significant economic impact for Patiala and the surrounding areas, creating employment opportunities and revitalizing local infrastructure. The upcoming anniversary celebrations are anticipated to draw considerable national and international attention.
