Governor Banwarilal Purohit administered the oath of office and secrecy to Mann at the
swearing-in ceremony that took place at Khatkar Kalan, the ancestral village of freedom
fighter Bhagat Singh in Punjab’s Shaheed Bhagat Singh (SBS) Nagar district. Only Mann
took the oath during the ceremony.
The event was supposed to start at 12.30 PM but got delayed and began at 1.25 PM.
“However, the swear-in ceremony is said to be delayed from the scheduled time due to bad weather: ABP NEWS
”??? Though, the truth may never come out, but the time of delay might have taken to influence and pressurise
Bhagwant Mann to edit his speech as desired by the central agencies of India?
The event was supposed to start at 12.30 PM but got delayed and began at 1.25 PM.

In his first speech after becoming the chief minister, Mann assured the people of the
state that his party’s government in Punjab would work to address issues such as
unemployment, corruption and farmers’ plight.
“The work will start from today itself. We will not waste even a single day. We are already
late by 70 years,” he said.
He promised that the condition of government schools and hospitals in the state will
be improved like it has been done by the AAP government in Delhi.
Like people from abroad come to see the improved schools and hospitals in Delhi,
they will also come to Punjab, he said.
He touched upon the issue of youngsters of Punjab migrating to other countries in search
of greener pastures.
Thanking people for attending the oath-taking ceremony in large numbers, Mann said
earlier, the swearing-in ceremonies used to take place at cricket stadiums or Raj
Bhawans. “Now this oath-taking ceremony is held at the village of a martyr,” he said,
adding that Khatkar Kalan was not new for him as he had visited it many times.
“Bhagat Singh had dreamt of freedom and the AAP is fighting to take that freedom to
the common people,” he said.
However, Bhagat Singh was concerned about who would take over the reins of the
country once it got free. “His (Bhagat Singh) concern proved to be right,” said Mann,
adding that those who ruled the country for 70 years did nothing.
“To love is the birthright of everyone, why not make your country your beloved,”
Mann said quoting Bhagat Singh as he asked the people to “love the country’s soil”.
Expressing gratitude for the huge mandate given to the AAP, Mann said, “We are
among you and we will remain like this.” He said the people of Punjab have created
history.
“In coming years, it will be taught in schools that people voted without any fear or
greed on February 20, 2022 (Punjab election),” said Mann on the huge mandate given to
the AAP.
He thanked Kejriwal, saying the AAP is improving the country’s politics.
He also advised AAP volunteers not to be arrogant or use objectionable language
against anyone.
Mann said his government will also work for those who did not vote for the AAP.
Meanwhile, a number of singers and artists, including Gurdas Maan, Karamjit Anmol,
singer-turned-politician and Congress MP Mohammad Sadique, and Amar Noorie, were
present at the event.
Elaborate arrangements were made for the ceremony that was attended by AAP
supporters from various parts of the state. The men were wearing yellow turbans,
while women draped a yellow dupatta (stole).
Mann had invited people of the state to attend his swearing-in ceremony, saying the
three crore people of Punjab will also take oath with him. The atmosphere was
surcharged with enthusiasm and patriotic fervour as people raised slogans of
Inquilab zindabad (Long live revolution) and Bole So Nihaal.
Tight security arrangements were made for the event.
A supporter, who came from Mann’s Satoj village in Sangrur said, “We have high
expectations from him and he will definitely live up to them. The way Kejriwal did
good work in Delhi, Mann will also do the same in Punjab.”
When Mann was leaving for Khatkar Kalan from Mohali earlier in the day, a few
supporters showered petals on his vehicle and congratulated him. “I’m happy that my
brother (Mann) is going to be the CM,” said a woman supporter.
